            Abstract : 
Broadcast is a critical component in embedded communications systems. Some vehicular network (VANET) applications in particular use broadcast communications extensively. Statistical broadcast methods offer an efficient means of propagating broadcast messages in this context due to their low overhead and high efficiency.
