A Survey on Comparative Study of Routing Protocol in Delay-Tolerant Networks

Delay/Disruption tolerant networking (DTN) is another class of network communication techniques developed to sustain long link delay and frequent link disruption. Lot of work have been done in evaluating the effectiveness and performance of the different type of DTN Protocols when they are applied on different environment (like the environment where we don’t have continuous path between source and sink e.g. Village network, interplanetary network (IPN) etc.). In this paper we present a survey on evaluation of Transmission Control Protocol Convergence Layer (TCPCL) for communication and long-delay communication (eg.MaxProp, Epidemics Routing etc.). A comparative study of various Transmission Control Protocol convergence layer has also been carried out. We are also going to present comparison between different kinds of protocol for communication purpose in delay tolerant network.
