We propose contact rule-based decision criteria to embed on autonomous mobile nodes to mimic mobile users' community contact pattern. To evaluate the closeness to real-world contact pattern, we compare the simulation results to the contact trace of WLAN users from the University of Florida. Our results show that the contact rule-based decision with overlapping community information matches real-world data in terms of contact duration and the periodical contact pattern.
