METHOD AND PROXY FOR TRANSPORTING IP PAYLOADS OVER A DELAY-TOLERANT NETWORK (DTN)

摘要

The present relates to a method and a proxy for transporting IP messages over a Default Tolerant Network. The method and proxy receive a message composed of multiple IP packets payload, and create partial messages by bundling sub-groups of subsequent IP packets payload with a unique identifier and a corresponding sequence number. The partial messages are transported over the DTN. The partial messages are received at another proxy after transport over the DTN, are unbundled and ordered based on the sequence number; and delivered.
