In delay tolerant network (DTN), an end-to-end path is not guaranteed and packets are delivered from a source node to a destination node via store-carry-forward based routing. In DTN, a source node or an intermediate node stores packets in buffer and carries them while it moves around. These packets are forwarded to other nodes based on predefined criteria and finally are delivered to a destination node via multiple hops. In this paper, we improve the dissemination speed of PRoPHET (probability routing protocol using history of encounters and transitivity) protocol by employing epidemic protocol for disseminating messagem, if forwarding counter and hop counter values are smaller than or equal to the threshold values. The performance of the proposed protocol was analyzed from the aspect of delivery probability, average delay, and overhead ratio. Numerical results show that the proposed protocol can improve the delivery probability, average delay, and overhead ratio of PRoPHET protocol by appropriately selecting the threshold forwarding counter and threshold hop counter values.

Delay Tolerant Network (DTN) is a wireless connection which does not need infrastructure in its formation. In this research the writer test the performance of a spray and focus routing protocol in opportunistic network using ONE SIMULATOR. Performance matrix used are delivery probability, overhead, delay, and drop. Scenario used in every test are increasing the number of nodes, increasing the number of copy pesan, additional TTL (time-to-live), and addition of buffer capacity. The test result show that spray and focus routing protocol is better in working day movement when TTL is increasing because spray and focus uses transitivity to choise the best relay node so the message can reach its destination in a shorter time even though nodes are often forming a community. The delivery probabilty reached 99.4% which is mean in every 100 messages, 99 messages are sucessfully delivered to destination node.

PRoPHET uses its delivery predictability of node encounters and transitivity to forward bundles to its neighbor node. Regardless of their distance, it faces delivery dilemmas in a source node and drawbacks of low delivery ratio and high delay in case two or more neighbor nodes carry equal delivery predictability. To solve such consequences, we propose a Distance and Probabilistic Routing Protocol using History of Encounters and Transitivity (DPRoPHET) with the use of cross layer implementation for distance value retrieval. Our simulation results show that, by adding distance metric to the existing delivery predictability vector, DPRoPHET outperforms PRoPHET.

In delay-tolerant wireless sensor networks, messages for sensor data are delivered using opportunistic contacts between intermittently connected nodes. Since there is no stable end-to-end routing path like the Internet and mobile nodes operate on battery, an energy-efficient routing protocol is needed. In this article, we consider the probabilistic routing protocol using history of encounters and transitivity protocol as the base protocol. Then, we propose an energy-aware routing protocol in intermittently connected delay-tolerant wireless sensor networks, where messages are forwarded based on the node’s remaining battery, delivery predictability, and type of nodes. The performance of the proposed protocol is compared with that of probabilistic routing protocol using history of encounters and transitivity and probabilistic routing protocol using history of encounters and transitivity with periodic sleep in detail, from the aspects of delivery ratio, overhead ratio, delivery latency, and ratio of alive nodes. Simulation results show that the proposed protocol has better delivery probability, overhead ratio, and ratio of alive nodes, in most of the considered parameter settings, in spite of a small increase in delivery latency.

Many applications of Internet of Things (IoT) have been implemented based on unreliable wireless or mobile networks like the delay tolerant network (DTN). Therefore, it is an important issue for IoT applications to achieve efficient data transmission in DTN. In order to improve delivery rate and optimize delivery delay with low overhead in DTN for IoT applications, we propose a new routing protocol, called Scheduling-Probabilistic Routing Protocol using History of Encounters and Transitivity (PROPHET). In this protocol, we calculate the delivery predictability according to the encountering frequency among nodes. Two scheduling mechanisms are proposed to extend the traditional PROPHET protocol and improve performance in both storage and transmission in DTN. In order to evaluate the proposed routing protocol, we perform simulations and compare it with other routing protocols in an Opportunistic Network Environment (ONE) simulator. The results demonstrate that the proposed Scheduling-PROPHET can achieve better performances in several key aspects compared with the existing protocols.

In opportunistic networks such as delay tolerant network, a message is delivered to a final destination node using the opportunistic routing protocol since there is no guaranteed routing path from a sending node to a receiving node and most of the connections between nodes are temporary. In opportunistic routing, a message is delivered using a ‘store-carry-forward’ strategy, where a message is stored in the buffer of a node, a node carries the message while moving, and the message is forwarded to another node when a contact occurs. In this paper, we propose an efficient opportunistic routing protocol using the history of delivery predictability of mobile nodes. In the proposed routing protocol, if a node receives a message from another node, the value of the delivery predictability of the receiving node to the destination node for the message is managed, which is defined as the previous delivery predictability. Then, when two nodes contact, a message is forwarded only if the delivery predictability of the other node is higher than both the delivery predictability and previous delivery predictability of the sending node. Performance analysis results show that the proposed protocol performs best, in terms of delivery ratio, overhead ratio, and delivery latency for varying buffer size, message generation interval, and the number of nodes.

Opportunistic network (Oppnet) is a class of networks where connections between the nodes are not permanent. The nodes are continuously moving and some nodes even switch off their batteries to conserve energy. Reliable delivery of messages in Opportunistic network is one major inherent issue. It is unreliable in the sense that once the source node has forwarded its message, then it will never get to know about its status in the network like whether the message has got discarded at an intermediate node or at the destination node (due to buffer overflow) or the successful delivery of the message has taken place. This work tries to make Oppnet as much reliable as possible. It proposes a reliability protocol named as “Reliability in Oppnet” (RIO). RIO improves the routing in Oppnet and works in parallel with the existing routing protocols. It makes the source node aware about the status of message so that if an error occurs then the source node can take suitable action to resend the message. It considers the redirection error, buffer overflow error, Time Limit Exceeded (TLE), parameter problem and destination unreachable errors that may occur inside the network. RIO has been tested using ONE simulator and implemented with Spray and Wait routing protocol. Results show that the RIO with Spray and Wait protocol outperforms normal Spray and Wait protocol in terms of average message delivery probability.

Delay Tolerant Networks (DTN) are characterized by a lack of end-to-end connectivity. As such, messages (called bundles) can be stored in buffers for a long time. Network congestion can result in poor delivery rates, as bundles are dropped before having a chance of reaching their destination. Some routing protocols, such as MaxProp and Probabilistic Routing Protocol using History of Encounters and Transitivity (PRoPHET), maintain estimations of delivery probabilities for each destination. In this paper, a new drop policy called Largest Bundle’s Hosts Deliverability (LBHD) is proposed that considers all the hosts that received a replica of the same bundle, and their respective delivery probability as estimated by a routing protocol. LBHD uses this additional information to better manage congestion. Simulation results show that LBHD consistently achieves the best delivery probability when paired with PRoPHET and compared with other drop policies proposed in the literature. Also, when paired with MaxProp, LBHD shows the most efficient performance among all the other state of the art policies considering performance metrics such as average delay, overhead ratio and bundle delivery rate. In addition, another drop policy called One Hop Delivery Estimation Drop (OHDED) is proposed. OHDED takes advantage of the encounter predictions of every node in the network stored in every node when using MaxProp. By accurately predicting the bundles that have the highest probability of being delivered directly or in two hops, the results show the best performance in delivery rate and overhead ratio in high congestion scenarios.
