Advanced PROPHET Routing in Delay Tolerant Network

Abstract

To solve routing jitter problem in PROPHET in delay tolerant network, advanced PROPHET routing is proposed in this paper. Average delivery predictabilities are used in advanced PROPHET to avoid routing jitter. Furthermore, we evaluate it through simulations versus PROPHET routing protocol. The experimental results show there has higher average delivery rates and shorter average delays in advanced PROPHET. Thus, it is fair to say that advanced PROPHET gives better performance than PROPHET.
