A novel routing method in hybrid DTN–MANET networks in the critical situations

DRT mobility model for search and rescue operations based on catastrophic intensity to improve the quality of services

“…Pirzadi et al [44] proposed a novel reducted-delivery routing (RDR) protocol in hybrid DTN -MANET in critical situations. The authors introduced a new routing metric called the "disaster recovery degree" to improve the routing performance in disaster scenarios.…”

“…CTA areas consist of patient waiting for treatment (PWFT) and casual clearing station (CCS). However, previous works in this field have largely ignored or simplified the representation of these areas, limiting the realism of the mobility models [43,44]. Additionally, the evaluation of network performance has often been conducted with small numbers of nodes and limited tactical network scales, further hindering the applicability of existing models [40].…”
