Modern blockchain-based routing protocol to increase reliability in delaytolerant networks
Modern blockchain-based routing protocol to increase reliability in delaytolerant networks
Abstract
Delay-tolerant networks (DTNs) allow data transmission in secluded areas, where long delays and disconnections are tolerant. In delay-tolerant networks, the end-to-end route may not be available at the time
the packet is sent, therefore, packets may be stored in intermediate nodes and routed to the destination at an
appropriate opportunity. This network provides secure and reliable connections on joint discontinuous and
alternating devices. This article introduces a new routing, which uses blockchain technology. The proposed
method increases the packet delivery rate and reduces the packet drop rate. The results showed that the
blockchain-based method has better results compared with the existingmethodS
