Disruption/Delay tolerant networking (DTN) is a promising solution to mitigate the effects of periodic link outages that last seconds to minutes, which are prevalent in high capacity airborne tactical networks that are directional in nature and highly affected by aircraft body blockage. There are several considerations for applying the DTN Bundle Protocol (RFC 5050) in tactical edge networks which...
The increasing need to augment ground/surface networks with an aerial tier has prompted research in understanding whether mobile ad-hoc network (MANET) routing techniques can be applied to the unique characteristics of high capacity airborne links. Due to the high cost of development and fielding such systems, the U.S. Department of Defense (DoD) is seeking joint-service solutions that take in requirements...
In Part I of this paper (“Delay-Optimal Dynamic Mode Selection and Resource Allocation in Device-to-Device Communications—Part I: Optimal Policy”), we investigated dynamic mode selection and subchannel allocation for an orthogonal frequency-division multiple access (OFDMA) cellular network with device-to-device (D2D) communications to minimize the average end-to-end delay performance under the dropping...
In recent years, there has been a large push in the U.S. Department of Defense (DoD) to augment ground networks with a high capacity airborne backbone network that uses directional communications technologies. Such a network could supplement the traditional SATCOM infrastructure which can become easily oversubscribed, may be degraded, or may even be unavailable. Although there are several advantages...
The enormous interest for peer-to-peer systems in recent years has prompted research into finding scalable and robust seeding and searching methods to support these overlay networks. Routing and search in these overlay networks have ranged from flooding-based unstructured techniques to structured ones mainly for popular and rate items respectively. In this paper, we propose a new method of establishing...
