Abstract

This paper presents a novel data dissemination strategy called Geographic Energy-aware Epidemic Routing (GEER) for Mobile Opportunistic Networks. This routing scheme considers the residual node energy and the node degree to dynamically decide if forwarding or not data to encountered mobile nodes. Moreover, a buffer management policy is applied to preserve buffer space reducing the Time To Live (TTL) of data sent on nodes with higher degree centrality. A node density estimation differentiated for geo-graphic area is proposed to improve the data forwarding and a buffer data discarding policy has been applied to manage packets with different sizes. GEER has been compared with others schemes such as Energy Aware Epidemic Routing (EAER) and EpSoc routing scheme in terms of Data Packet delivery ratio, overhead and energy consumption.
