Abstract

DTN is a relatively new research field and many applications have been identified for it. It is an overlay network working over heterogeneous networks in challenged environments where the links are less reliable and the delays are expected to be very long. Due to the difficult working conditions of DTN, all types of available links are utilized to ensure better delivery of messages including the physical transportations methods such as buses and ferries. We propose using aircrafts in scheduled routes for data transportation for DTN application. We will show an analysis of aircrafts routes and possible scenario for DTN concept realization.
