Abstract

In this work, we focus on a drone-based message ferry between clusters in disaster situation. We consider Delay-Tolerant Networking (DTN) for our scenario and evaluate the message ferry method considering drones and vehicles. We use an urban grid road model in normal and disaster situations. From the simulation results, we found that using drones reduces delay time and improves delivery ratio.
