| Abstract: | In this paper, we present a routing algorithm for a class of
dynamic networks called the Delay Tolerant Networks (DTNs). The proposed
algorithm takes into account the quintessential DTN characteristic namely,
intermittent link connectivity. We modify the breadth first search (BFS)
algorithm to take into account link state changes and find the quickest
route between source and destination nodes. We adopt a message drop policy
at intermediate nodes to incorporate storage constraint. We also introduce
the idea of time-varying storage domains where all nodes connected for a
length of time act as a single storage unit by sharing the aggregated
storage capacity of the nodes. We evaluate the routing algorithm with and
without storage domain in an extensive simulation. We analyze the
performance using metrics such as delivery ratio, incomplete transfers
with no routes and dropped messages. The DTN topology dynamics are
analyzed by varying: number of nodes generating traffic, link ... |
