Message Ferrying: Proactive Routing in Highly-Partitioned Wireless Ad Hoc Networks

An ad hoc network allows devices with wireless interfaces to communicate with each other without any preinstalled infrastructure. Due to node mobility, limited radio power, node failure and wide deployment area, ad hoc networks are often vulnerable to network partitioning. A number of examples are in battlefield, disaster recovery and wide area surveillance. Unfortunately, most existing ad hoc routing protocols will fail to deliver messages under these circumstances since no route to the destination exists. This paper proposes the Message Ferrying or MF scheme that provides efficient data delivery in disconnected ad hoc networks.
