A Survey on Geographic Routing Protocols in Delay/Disruption Tolerant Networks
Delay/Disruption Tolerant Networks (DTNs) have been attracting great interest from research community, where data communication naturally does not require contemporaneous end-to-end connectivity. Although they are suffering from a large variation of network topology, numerous previous routing protoc...

description | Delay/Disruption Tolerant Networks (DTNs) have been attracting great interest from research community, where data communication naturally does not require contemporaneous end-to-end connectivity. Although they are suffering from a large variation of network topology, numerous previous routing protocols proposed for DTNs still make effort to qualify delivery potential, via network topology information. Geographic routing is an alternative, conceptually, by relying on the geographic information instead of topological information. In the literature, since this technique branch has not been extensively investigated in DTNs, our paper identifies the motivation and challenges for applying geographic routing in DTNs with the state of the art. Also, we highlight the future research directions for this branch. |
