Abstract
In delay/disruption-tolerant satellite networks, the existing routing algorithms have problems of long transmission delay, high packet loss rate, excessive network overhead and other issues. In the view of these shortcomings, an improved contact graph routing algorithm, ICGR, is proposed in this paper. Firstly, the impact of queuing delay is considered by defining a queue factor and proposing a queue scheduling mechanism in routing calculation; secondly, the effects of contact’s remaining capacity are taken into account to avoid the selected path being unable to forward the messages; thirdly, routing update mechanism is optimized by designing a message path update factor to strike a balance between real-time updates of transmission and resource consumption; finally, a LEO satellite network simulation platform is built with OPNET to verify the performance of this algorithm. Simulation results show that the ICGR, compared with the ED and CGR algorithm, has advantage in packet delivery rate, average transmission delay and network overhead.
