Quality of service provisioning for delay tolerant network by implementing admission control model for aircrafts bundles data transmission
Mohammed Al-Siyabi, Haitham S. Cruickshank, Zhili Sun · 2010
The notion of Quality of Service (QoS) in Delay Tolerant Network (DTN) is different due to the challenging nature of DTN which might suffer from intermittent disconnections and long delays. DTN has scarce resources; therefore, controlling the admissions to these resources is important to best share them among the users according to each user privilege. This paper presents the requirements for QoS in DTN and identifies the DTN flow characteristics metrics. The control and managements of these metrics will enhance DTN QoS. Also this paper proposes an Admission Control model based on local information of the node resource in order to avoid network congestion and enhance network performance.
