Abstract
A method of broadcasting a data packet (D) in an ad hoc network comprising a plurality of groups of mobile nodes traveling along traffic lanes in a road network. The data packet (D) is broadcast within a group (G) during an intragroup broadcasting phase during which the data packet (D) propagates simultaneously in two opposing directions of movement (A, A), such that the packet (D) is received by peripheral nodes (B, B) of the group (G). During an intergroup broadcasting phase, a peripheral node (B) transmits the data packet (D) to another group.
