Distributed propagation of data in a wireless communication network

摘要

A technique for distributed propagation of data in a wireless communication network includes providing 600 a unique host identifier for each peer network entity in the wireless communication network, each host identifier having a length of B bits. A next step includes requesting 602 data from peer network entities using a request having a host identifier of the requesting network entity. A next step includes, if a peer network entity is hosting the requested data, comparing 608 the host identifiers of the requesting network entity and the peer network entity receiving the request to determine a match. A next step includes responding 610 to the request if a match is determined.
