In this paper, we propose a new compact and low delay routing labeling scheme for Unit Disk Graphs (UDGs) which often model wireless ad hoc networks. We show that one can assign each vertex of an n-vertex UDG G a compact O(log 2 n)-bit label such that, given the label of a source vertex and the label of a destination, it is possible to compute efficiently, based solely on these two labels, a neighbor of the source vertex that heads in the direction of the destination. We prove that this routing

To the best of our knowledge, this is the first compact routing scheme for UDGs which not only guaranties delivery but has a low hop delay and polylog label size. Furthermore, our routing labeling scheme has a constant length route-stretch.
