Abstract

Urban public transport networks are special types of Delay Tolerant Networks (DTNs) which consist of buses and other forms of transport. It is hard to establish an end-to-end link and maintain a stable network topology in this kind of networks. However, unlike other DTNs, the bus’s mobility in public transport networks is regular, which means the bus’s line is determined. Thus, traditional routing protocols are no longer fit. In this paper, we search and analyze many real scenarios and present the Bus Line-based Routing (BLR), and our BLR is based on the minimum distance between bus lines. We simulate the performance of BLR in ONE simulator, and the result shows that our routing protocol has better performance than traditional routing algorithms in urban scenarios.
