Performance comparison of named data networking and IP-based networking in palapa ring network

Abstract

Communication system in the digital era requires time efficiency in sending an information from source to destination. Palapa Ring is a national fiber optic network construction project that will reach as many as 34 provinces, 440 cities and regencies across Indonesia with total sea cable length of 35,280 kilometers, and cable on land is 21,807 kilometers. In this paper, the comparison of Internet Protocol (IP) based network and Named Data Networking Network (NDN) on Palapa Ring network will be discussed with three metrics: throughput, delay, and packet drop; which IP has been a universal network layer that implement all functionality for global interconnectivity and NDN is an entirely new architecture that focus on its contents instead of the address to get that contents. The result of this research shows that the throughput, delay, and packet drop of NDN are better that IP-based network.
