Abstract

Message ferry is to provide communication service for mobile nodes in Delay-Tolerant Networks (DTNs). Various routing schemes for message ferries have been proposed so far. The efficiency of message delivery using message ferries depends on the routing scheme. Nomadic Lévy Walk, a variant of Lévy Walk, is an eligible candidate for a message ferry routing scheme. It includes homing behavior in addition to the behavior similar to Lévy walk with strategic moving the home (sink) position. This paper shows the simulation result on the message delivery probability and latency by message ferries with Nomadic Lévy Walk in DTNs. Then we compare with other variants of Lévy walk. We also discuss the influence of the sink relocation strategies of Nomadic Lévy Walk on the message delivery probability and latency.
