A Way of Candidate Set Selection for Epidemic Routing in Delay Tolerate Networks

Abstract

The radio propagation effect of fading or shadowing between mobile nodes has not been well considered in contact rate. One way to incorporate interference into contact rate is multiplied by probability that the infected node copies the message to the susceptible node during a contact in epidemic routing. In this paper, we develop a model to incorporate the wireless link reliability into contact rate. For application, we proposed a scheme for epidemical delay tolerate network with considering the effects based on the model. Simulation shows that proposed scheme has better performance.
