Abstract
Disclosed are a system and method of transmitting data among communication nodes. A first communication node is coupled to a plurality of adjacent communication nodes. The first communication node may receive a data transmission comprising a destination associated with a second communication node. The first communication node may receive status data from one or more adjacent communication nodes through a control channel coupled between the first communication node and the adjacent communication node where the status data comprises status information for at least the adjacent node. A communication node adjacent to the first communication node may be selected to forward the received data to a destination based upon the status data received from the adjacent communication nodes.
