A real-time analysis approach in opportunistic networks

Published: 01 September 2011 Publication History

Abstract

There are several mobile work scenarios requiring real-time messages. Examples of these scenarios are disaster relief or mobile work in isolated areas. Although opportunistic networks are not intended for real-time messages, under certain conditions the communication could be feasible. This paper presents the schedulability analysis of an opportunistic network for real-time traffic. It includes a stochastic and deterministic analysis of the network performance. Moreover, a scheduling policy is also proposed.
