Description:
The aim of this project is to study and assess Disruption-Tolerant Networking (DTN) protocols applied to a flying ad-hoc networks of unmanned micro air vehicle. Algorithms and protocols will be evaluated by network emulations. The student will be involved in the LCM/LIS research project, SMAVNET II, on dynamic routing and swarm control strategies for ad-hoc networks of unmanned micro air vehicle. The student will work in tight collaboration with the SMAVNET team.

Objective:
Phase 0 (Preliminary study)
1) Understand what it is the role of transport layer protocols.
2) Understand the difference between TCP, UDP, and DTN.
