چکیده

This report proposes a generic delay tolerant transport protocol constructed as an extension of the Licklider Transmission Protocol, a delay tolerant point-to-point protocol currently under development which is primarily aimed at deep space applications. The report justifies and describes the proposed protocol and the work that is planned to validate its properties.

A Survey of Transport Protocols for Deep Space Communication Networks

NASA proposes to develop a common infrastructure for all its forthcoming space exploration missions. This infrastructure called the Interplanetary Internet (IPN) will take the Internet of the Earth to outside planets and facilitate in the efficient transfer of the huge amount of scientific data collected by the space probes back to Earth. The development of an efficient transport protocol for t...

RFC 5325 LTP - Motivation September 2008 2

This document describes the motivation for the development of the Licklider Transmission Protocol (LTP) designed to provide retransmission-based reliability over links characterized by extremely long message round-trip times (RTTs) and/or frequent interruptions in connectivity. Since communication across interplanetary space is the most prominent example of this sort of environment, LTP is prin...

Transmission Protocols for Delay-Tolerant Networks

In this paper, we provide an overview of important transmission protocols for a certain class of challenged heterogeneous networks commonly termed delayor disruptiontolerant networks (DTN). We outline basic requirements and limitations for these protocols, including the Bundle Protocol and the LTP and Saratoga convergence layer protocols, sketch their respective solution approaches and provide ...

Design of Delay-Tolerant Transport Protocol (DTTP) and its evaluation for Mars

We present Delay-Tolerant Transport Protocol (DTTP) which enables fast and reliable communications in deep space. The proposed protocol regularly measures its performance through available paths towards destination, and develops its routing strategy accordingly. We evaluate DTTP performance across a wide range of network scenarios that pertain to Mars-to-Earth distances. Based on simulation res...

DTTP: a Delay-Tolerant Transport Protocol for Space Internetworks

We propose Delay-Tolerant Transport Protocol (DTTP) to address reliable data transfer in stressed network environments, such as space communications. Since existing TCP mechanisms do not work well (or at all) for such networks, new transport schemes are required. Intermittent connectivity in space environments calls for new transport approaches that smoothly adapt to the special networking cond...
