“…Nodes in OppNets require direct wireless communication technologies to communicate among nodes. The most widely discussed wireless technologies [51] are IEEE 802.11 [52] in ad hoc [53] or WiFi Direct mode [54][55][56], Bluetooth [52,57,58], LoRaWAN [59], and the PHY [60] mode of LoRa. Sometimes also IEEE 802.15.4 is considered [61], but not available on end-user devices.…”

Infrastructure‐less networks connect communication devices end‐to‐end by managing links and routes independent of fixed networking facilities, relying on dedicated protocols running on end‐user devices. The large variety of infrastructure‐less concepts and related aspects can be confusing both for beginning Ph.D. students as well as experienced researchers who wish to get an overview of neighbouring areas to their own research foci. Frequently discussed topics such as different types of sensor‐, vehicular‐, or opportunistic networks are covered. The authors describe different networking concepts by looking at aspects such as the main properties, common applications, and ongoing research. Furthermore, the concepts by common characteristics such as node mobility, network density, or power consumption are compared. The authors also discuss network performance evaluation by describing commonly used metrics, different evaluation techniques, and software tools for simulation‐based evaluation. The references given in each section help obtain in‐depth information about the presented topics and give hints about open research questions, which can be a starting point for own investigations.

TSIRP: A Temporal Social Interactions-Based Routing Protocol in Opportunistic Mobile Social Networks

2021

With the increasing number of smart device users, data transmission between users is becoming more important, and a network architecture called opportunistic mobile social network (OMSN) is gaining attention. However, routing in OMSNs is a challenging problem due to the frequent disconnection between nodes and the absence of paths from the source to the destination. It results in a complex topology and a low packet transmission success rate. Therefore, we propose a novel routing algorithm called the temporal social interactions-based routing protocol (TSIRP) for solving the problem of low network performance due to the improper selection of message relay nodes. First, we focus on the temporal context of social interactions. Specifically, at a certain time of the day, a person has specific people with whom the person usually interacts (e.g., workers usually meet co-workers during working hours; students usually meet their classmates during class). Based on temporal social interactions between nodes, potential forwarding metrics are proposed and calculated for each time of the day to make forwarding decisions. Second, we propose a new scheme to control the message spreading rate, which allows achieving a balance between delivery latency and overhead ratio. In addition, an analytical model is also designed using an absorbing Markov chain to estimate the performance of TSIRP. Simulations were also conducted, and the results indicate that TSIRP can achieve better performance than existing routing protocols in terms of packet delivery ratio, delivery latency, network overhead ratio, and average hop count.INDEX TERMS Forwarding token, opportunistic mobile social network, potential forwarding metric, spreading rate control value.
