Abstract
A method and apparatus for routing packets in a network, such as a satellite mesh network. Network nodes maintain awareness of network status in a limited surrounding region through flooding notifications. Network nodes route packets by addressing them to a selected other node within part or the entire limited surrounding region. Network nodes adjust the portion of the network to which they route packets to match the limited surrounding region, which changes dynamically due to network events.
