Title
Networking in the land of northern lights: two years of experiences from DTN system deployments
Abstract
The Sámi Network Connectivity (SNC) project was started to enable Internet connectivity for the Sámi population of reindeer herders in the Laponia region in northern Sweden. In this area, no infrastructure and thus, no Internet connectivity is normally available. Thus, DTN functionality is used to enable connectivity through the use of mobile relays. This paper describes deployments and field tests done within the SNC project and its continuation SNC+1, in which a Delay-Tolerant Networking system was deployed in the target region. During these deployments, the PRoPHET routing protocol, and three different applications were deployed and tested sucessfully.
