Research of Routing Protocols in Mobile Social Networks

摘要

This paper studies four rooting protocols in mobile social networks, which are the Epidemic protocol, the SimBet protocol, the Prophet protocol and the Popularity-Aided protocol. The theories of the protocols are studied and the experiments are done. With the random waypoint model, the simulation is implemented and the performance is analyzed. Through the comparison of the four protocols, the advantages and disadvantages are analyzed, which provides a reference for MSNs.
