Routing method, transceiver station and computer program for carrying out the method

A transceiver station for forming a node of a telecommunications network, the station comprising:

• a receiver configured to receive a request coming from another node of the network and initially arising from a destination node;
• a processor configured to determine a delay as a function of a routing metric associated with the station;
• and
• a transmitter configured to systematically rebroadcast the request with said delay on the network on condition that the request has not been received beforehand and that the transceiver station is not identified as a source node in said request.

A non-transient computer readable medium storing a computer program for execution by a transceiver station forming a node of a telecommunications network, the program comprising steps for:

• on receipt by the station of a request coming from another node of the network and initially arising from a destination node, examining whether the request has been received beforehand by the station;
• obtaining a delay determined as a function of a routing metric associated with the station;
• and
• if the request has not been received beforehand by the station and if the station is not identified as a source node by said request, systematically instructing rebroadcasting of the request on the network with said delay.
