Performance Evaluation of Sociality Based Routing Protocol using Human Mobility Model in Delay Tolerant Network

Abstract

Delay Tolerant Network(DTN) is useful for providing communication, where internet connection does not
exist or in an Environment where long delay path and frequent partitions in transmission is there. Mainly DTN was
developed for deep space communication or communication between two planet and also for militray applications. A
vital challenge for Delay Tolerant Networks is to determine the routes through the network without ever having an end to
end path, or knowing which routers will be connected at any given instant of time. The problem has an added for routing
is how to find mobility of user, these mobility is exploit by human mobility models like Truncated Levy Walk(TLW) and
Self Similar Least Action Walk(SLAW). Routing with Human mobility model is improve the performance of Routing
protocol. I concluded by comparison of routing protocol with human mobility models and random mobility models.
