Abstract
The delay-tolerant network (DTN) has captured the interests of research scholars for its increasing importance in the demanding environment. Routing of data among two nodes when they are not within the communication range is a tedious work in DTNs as the end-to-end routing path cannot be guaranteed. In our proposed work, we propose a trust and reputation-based routing protocol in the DTNs to provide secure transmission of data between the destination and source. For the transfer of data, a node nearer to the source must be normal and should possess increased trust and reputation. The proposed trust and reputation-based protocol consists of acknowledgments, node lists, and aging steps to make effective communication. The forwarding node is chosen using reputation and trust-based context-aware routing (RCAR) algorithm. Upon handling a message, the dispatcher waits for acknowledgment from receiver, with which the sender increases the trust and reputation of the forwarding node. After the receiving of the message, the node itself is added to the node list. The proposed trust and reputation-based routing protocol produced less delay and high packet delivery ratio (PDR) of 0.0427 and 0.9917, respectively.
