Abstract

In Recent, there have been serious larger disasters, such as earthquakes tsumami, typhoons have around the world. Once disaster occurred, communication network infrastructure is often seriously damaged and network traffic is heavily congested. Particularly since the communication network infrastructure of mountainous and coast areas are not well developed, it is difficult to normally use the communication means once the disaster happened. For those cases, Delay/Disruptions Tolerant Network (DTN) can realize mobile devices communication without constructing infrastructure. In this paper, we propose a DTN based Multi-hop network for temporal network in the case of disaster and considered transmission disruption and transmission delay. In order to evaluate the usefulness of our proposed, we constructed an experimental prototype to by smart devices and evaluate the performance.
