Abstract

In this paper Time-Based Random Waypoint (TBRWP) model is analyzed in detail. Random waypoint model has been studied in mobility literature extensively. Traditional RWP model is based on the independency of the velocity and trajectory; TBRWP, instead, focuses on the independency of motion time and trajectory. Basic model is introduced and general method to evaluate the asymptotical probability density function (PDF) is presented. The model for the one-dimensional and twodimensional cases with uniform destination distribution in unit square area is solved and exact closed form formulas is obtained. Moreover, normal distribution of nodes in one- and two- dimensional models is investigated and practical approximations are derived for them. To verify the obtained results an extensive simulation is performed and tight results are obtained.
