Abstract
A method for managing node communications in a mobile ad-hoc network is provided where at least a node in the said network performs the following steps: identifying if it is a Potentially Disruptive Node (PDN) or a non-PDN node, a PDN node being a node that has a number of connected 1-hop neighbor nodes greater than a predetermined value K; when the node is identified as a PDN node, selecting a subset of its 1-hop neighbor nodes, the selected nodes being the only 1-hop neighbor nodes that are allowed to communicate directly with the PDN node, the selected nodes being called Bridge Nodes (BN), non-BN nodes being called Regular Nodes (RN), the said RN nodes being able to communicate with PDN nodes via the selected BN nodes.
