Given the positions of n sites in a radio network we consider the problem of finding routes between any pair of sites that minimize energy consumption and do not use more than some constant number k of hops. Known exact algorithms for this problem required Ω(n log n) per query pair (p,q). In this paper we relax the exactness requirement and only compute approximate (1 + ε) solutions which allows us to guarantee constant query time using linear space and O(n log n) preprocessing time. The dependence on ε is polynomial in 1/ε. One tool we employ might be of independent interest: For any pair of points (p, q) ∈ P ⊆ ℤ2 we can report in constant time the cluster pair (A,B) representing (p, q) in a well-separated pair decomposition of P. © Springer-Verlag 2003.
