Abstract

This paper proposes a Software-Defined Delay Tolerant Networking (SDDTN) architecture as a solution to managing large Delay Tolerant Networking (DTN) networks in a scalable manner. This work is motivated by the planned deployments of large DTN networks on the Moon and beyond in deep space. Current space communication involves relatively few nodes and is heavily deterministic and scheduled, which will not be true in the future. It is unclear how these large space DTN networks, consisting of inherently intermittent links, will be able to adapt to dynamically changing network conditions. In addition to the proposed SDDTN architecture, this paper explores data plane programming and the Programming Protocol-Independent Packet Processors (P4) language as a possible method of implementing this SDDTN architecture, enumerates the challenges of this approach, and presents intermediate results.
