Abstract Sensors in future smart cities will continuously monitor the environment in order to prevent critical situations and waste of resources or to offer new services to end users. Likely, the existing networks will not be able to sustain such a traffic without huge investments in the telecommunication infrastructure. One possible solution to overcome these problems is to apply the Delay Tolerant Network (DTN) paradigm. This paper presents the Sink and Delay Aware Bus (S&DA-Bus) routing protocol, a DTN routing protocol designed for smart cities able to exploit mobility of people, vehicles and buses roaming around the city. Particular attention is put on the public transportation system: S&DA-Bus takes advantage of the predictable and quasi-periodic mobility that characterizes it.
