Adaptive forwarding algorithm for opportunistic networks
机会网络中的自适应转发控制算法*

Based on the analysis of fixed utility threshold of the forwarding control for Opportunistic networks, a data forwarding scheme named adaptive forwarding algorithm based on nodal capacity condition(AFNC) was proposed. In this scheme, every node calculated the utility threshold control factor according to the nodal capacity condition, and adaptively controlled the data forwarding condition in different network status and different communication opportunities. The simulation results show that, in ensuring lower transmission delay and higher transmission success rate, AFNC reduced the network load and the energy consumption in the process of data transmission.
