Abstract: Ad hoc peer-to-peer mobile phone networks (phone MANETs) enable cheap village level telephony for cash-strapped, off-the-grid communities. Broadcasting is a fundamental operation in such manets and is used for route discovery. This paper proposed a new broadcast technique that is lightweight, efficient and incurs low latency. Using extensive simulations, we compare our proposed technique to existing lightweight protocols. The results show that our technique is successful in outperforming existing lightweight techniques on the criteria that are critical for a phone-MANET.
