Abstract Realistic mobility models are important to understand the performance of routing protocols in wireless ad hoc networks, especially when mobility-assisted routing schemes are employed, which is the case, for example, in delay-tolerant networks (DTNs). In mobility-assisted routing, messages are stored in mobile nodes and carried across the network with nodal mobility. Hence, the delay involved in message delivery is tightly coupled with the properties of nodal mobility. Currently, commonly used mobility models are simplistic random i.i.d. model that do not reflect realistic mobility characteristics. In this paper we propose a novel time-variant community mobility model. In this model, we define communities that are visited often by the nodes to capture skewed location visiting preferences, and use time periods with different mobility parameters to create periodical re-appearance of nodes at the same location. We have clearly observed these two properties based on analysis of empirical WLAN traces. In addition to the proposal of a realistic mobility model, we derive analytical expressions to highlight the impact on the hitting time and meeting times if these mobility characteristics are incorporated. These quantities in turn determine the packet delivery delay in mobility-assisted routing settings. Simulation studies show our expressions have error always under 20%, and in 80% of studied cases under 10%.
