Abstract
A routing method comprising receiving a first packet, the first packet being broadcast for discovery of a route. A first backoff of the first packet is calculated based on a route cost of the first packet. The first packet is rebroadcast if a second packet is not received within the first backoff, the second packet being a duplicate of the first packet. A second backoff of the second packet is calculated based on a route cost of the second packet if the second packet is received within the first backoff. One of the first and the second packets is rebroadcast as a result of comparing the first backoff and the second backoff.
