Density and Degree Impact on Opportunistic Network Communications

Opportunistic networks provide a way of wireless communication and connectivity between smart devices. The opportunistic wireless communication between two met devices commonly accomplished by using radio links such as Wi-Fi and Bluetooth. This paper considers the node degree and density analysis for distributed opportunistic wireless communications using Wi-Fi and Bluetooth radio. This work analyzes the influence of network density on the link probability and resource concentrates on opportunistic wireless communications. The paper presents a modeling and simulation study framework for distributed opportunistic wireless communications to analyze density on energy consumption. The study gives deeply analyze data such as a link probability based on node density and degree in a specific area. Moreover, the paper will address the density impact on delivery ratio and energy consumption. This study presents an influence evaluation of various network scalability variables on link probability. The results show that link probability is affected by node degree greater than node density.
