Abstract

Delay and Disruption Tolerant Networking (DTN) is a network architecture created basically to overcome non-continuing connectivity. There has been a great deal of research on this topic, from space communication to terrestrial applications. Since there are still many places on earth where there is no means of communication, the focus of this work is on the latest. A systematic literature review (SLR) was performed to know the main issues and advances related to the implementation of DTN for terrestrial and TCP/IP applications, especially in places where telecommunication infrastructure is lacking. The result is a classification of papers based on key aspects, such as architecture, performance, routing, and applications. A matrix of all the papers about these aspects is included to help researchers find the missing piece and concrete terrestrial solutions. The matrix uses three colors, green, yellow, and red according to the focus, either high, medium, or low, so that it is easy to identify specific papers.
