Line 13:
Multipoint relays (MPRs) relay messages between nodes. They also have the main role in [[routing]] and selecting the proper route from any source to any desired destination node.
 
MPRs advertise link-state information for their MPR selectors (a node selected as a MPR) periodically in their control messages. MPRs are also used to form a route from a given node to any destination in route calculation. Each node periodically broadcasts a Hello message for the link sensing, neighbor detection and MPR selection processes.<ref>''Performance Comparison of Wireless Mobile AdHoc Network Routing'' - Arun Kumar, Lokanatha C.
