While reactive routing protocols such as AODV operate efficiently for small ad hoc wireless networks, their O(N) perflow control overhead limits deployment on larger-scale networks. Deployment of compact routing protocols such as geographic routing have met with challenges. In this paper, we present Table Attenuation Routing Protocol (TARP), a protocol that combines compact per-node routing state with scalability to large networks. Preliminary evaluation shows that TARP performs similar to AODV in smaller networks and better in larger networks.
