“…It has already been proven that streaming large amounts of data is possible [43]. Moreover, there is even a DTN framework specifically designed for video streaming purposes, called Bundle Streaming Service (BSS) [44,45]. BSS supports two different types of connection: (1) a best-effort option for close to real-time video streaming; and (2) a reliable transport option, giving the user the possibility of replaying the video later in its integral form.…”

Autonomous Underwater Vehicles (AUVs) are seen as a safe and cost-effective platforms for performing a myriad of underwater missions. These vehicles are equipped with multiple sensors which, combined with their long endurance, can produce large amounts of data, especially when used for video capturing. These data need to be transferred to the surface to be processed and analyzed. When considering deep sea operations, where surfacing before the end of the mission may be unpractical, the communication is limited to low bitrate acoustic communications, which make unfeasible the timely transmission of large amounts of data unfeasible. The usage of AUVs as data mules is an alternative communications solution. Data mules can be used to establish a broadband data link by combining short-range, high bitrate communications (e.g., RF and wireless optical) with a Delay Tolerant Network approach. This paper presents an enhanced version of UDMSim, a novel simulation platform for data muling communications. UDMSim is built upon a new realistic AUV Motion and Localization (AML) simulator and Network Simulator 3 (ns-3). It can simulate the position of the data mules, including localization errors, realistic position control adjustments, the received signal, the realistic throughput adjustments, and connection losses due to the fast SNR change observed underwater. The enhanced version includes a more realistic AML simulator and the antenna radiation patterns to help evaluating the design and relative placement of underwater antennas. The results obtained using UDMSim show a good match with the experimental results achieved using an underwater testbed. UDMSim is made available to the community to support easy and faster evaluation of underwater data muling oriented communications solutions and to enable offline replication of real world experiments.

“…Sotirios-Angelos Lenas et.al [12] describe that Data streaming over Delay-Tolerant Networks (DTN) is a challenging task considering jointly the specific characteristics of DTN environments, the demanding nature of streaming applications and their wide applicability. Presently, there are not any advanced mechanisms available to support this functionality and typical configurations fail to efficiently transfer data streams.…”

Wireless Mobile ad hoc networks use Delay/disruption tolerant technology in order to make up for the lack of end to end connectivity. DTNs work in store-carry-forward fashion to deliver messages with opportunistic encounters of nodes. And this strategy consumes resources such as storage and energy. This could well be the reason for nodes to avoid message forwarding, to save their limited resources. This kind of selfish behavior hinders communication. In order to stimulate participation of nodes for a smooth communication incentives are awarded. An efficient Incentive-CompatibleRouting Protocol (ICRP) with multiple copies for two-hop DTNs by using optimal sequential stopping rule and algorithmic game theory will be used. Relaying nodes can receive the maximum reward only when they honestly report the true encounter probability and routing metrics, which will stimulate nodes to participate in the relay node selection process. To implement this Vickrey-Clarke-Groves (VCG) Auction (second-price sealed-bid) based algorithm is employed as a strategy to refine the relay node selection process. ICRP attempts to find the optimal stopping time threshold adaptively based on realistic probability model and propose an algorithm to calculate the threshold. Based on this threshold, it proposes a new method to select relay nodes for multi-copy transmissions. ICRP can effectively stimulate nodes to carry/forward messages and achieve higher packet delivery ratio with lower transmission cost. This implementation reduces the end-to-end delay, energy consumption. And it ensures the existence of more number of live nodes.

“…In this context, we have proposed bundle streaming service as a practical approach that addresses many of the networking challenges related to both live and stored data streaming over DTNs. BSS is a framework that enables ‘streaming’ data to be conveyed via DTN ‘bundles’ in a manner that supports in‐order stream processing with minimal latency.…”

We present bundle streaming service (BSS), a communication framework that allows for reliable data streaming over delay/disruptive tolerant networks. BSS improves the reception and storage of data streams through the application of sophisticated forwarding tactics and the exploitation of inherent delay/disruptive tolerant networking (DTN) architecture features. The proposed framework, which targets easy configuration and deployment, comprises two elements: a bundle forwarder and a software library. Both elements were implemented as part of the interplanetary overlay network DTN platform. Using European Space Agency's DTN testbed, we experimentally evaluate BSS performance across a wide range of network scenarios. Based on these emulation results, we discuss the associated performance trade‐offs along with potential improvement opportunities and demonstrate BSS's suitability for both terrestrial and space environments.
