CGGC: Cached Greedy Geocast

Abstract. With cached greedy geocast, we propose an enhanced forwarding scheme for geocast especially in highly mobile ad hoc networks. We will show, that a cache for presently unforwardable messages during what we call the line forwarding, can significantly improve the geocast delivery success ratio, especially in sparse peopled networks with high node velocities. Therefore, we introduce and examine two separate caching strategies and present simulation results in conjunction with geocast. Our simulations inquire the delivery success ratio but also the trade–off in delivery delay.
