We Live our Passion for Network Protocols and Architectures.

offers three services

We offer research and development support for network protocols and architectures with a specific focus on solutions for challenged networks.

Due to our solid background in networking technologies, we are able to support and drive research and development projects to push the state of the art in communication forward.

We help to enhance Internet protocols and develop dedicated solutions for niche areas. Our main focus is to render communication possible in the most challenging environments.

We are motivated by the idea to provide means of communication for the deepest oceans as well as beyond our solar system.

We provide trainings on state-of-the-art as well as upcoming networking technologies and their implementations.

Having years of experience in developing networking solutions and implementing communication protocols, we are happy to provide our experience and know-how.

For this purpose, we offer specialized courses and trainings, covering conventional Internet protocols and technologies as well as currently-discussed and upcoming communication approaches.

If a more detailed understanding of networking protocol stacks and the underlying architectures is needed, we are happy to help.

We develop software covering communication protocols and simulation environments.

In order to support concrete projects and to setup practically useful communication infrastructures, we have developed several tools and software products, offered partially under free software licenses.

Besides L1-L7 protocol stacks, we can provide software for simulating challenged networks with a specific focus on the space domain.

We are the right partner for dedicated software development projects in the area of communication protocols, including novel approaches and challenged network scenarios.

We are

In 2015, our company was founded under the name FUSE to offer dedicated software products for distributed systems. Driven by our interest in networking for challenged environments — especially in space and underwater networks — we began to focus intensively on this field.

In July 2018, we renamed the company D3TN, reflecting our expertise in Delay- and Disruption-tolerant Networking (DTN) technologies. These technologies enable communication in the most challenging environments, and we develop software solutions tailored to this domain.

In addition, we bring experience in conventional Internet technologies and are well-versed in implementing the corresponding protocol stacks.

We are passionate about advancing networking technologies and offer support in the following areas:

Research & Development

Innovative research on networking technologies, focusing on challenged networks.
Develop and validate cutting-edge software and hardware prototypes.

Network Design & Implementation

Design customized network infrastructures based on modern technologies.
Implement protocols and support tools (e.g., simulators).
Plan communication systems for research missions.

Consultation & Knowledge Transfer

Share expertise on protocols and architectures, from conventional to next-gen.
Consult on evaluating and optimizing designs and stacks.

OUR PROJECTS

To extend and establish our knowledge we are participating in different projects mostly related to underwater and space network technologies. Some projects are started just by D3TN, others are collaborations together with partners to combine the knowledge and know-how of different topics for new solutions. All projects gain for innovative products based on open source software to offer cheaper and more flexible solutions.

µD3TN is our own free and open-source DTN protocol implementation.

VIEW PROJECT

The DARKSOL project is researching approaches for the realization of a “space cloud” that will enable payloads of space assets such as satellites, landers, or space probes, to be operated like workloads in a modern data center on Earth.

VIEW PROJECT

The MISSION project aims to combine state-of-the-art space technology with proven computer science techniques to optimize the reliability and effectiveness of future space missions.

VIEW PROJECT

COLDSUN is a project started by the D3TN GmbH and is supported by the European Space Agency (ESA). The goal of the project is to design a buoy that is able to transmit data from underwater sensors to the Internet via satellites. The whole system is based on open source software and commercial off-the-shelf components to offer a cheap and flexible solution.

VIEW PROJECT

In the REDMARS 2 project, D3TN explores possibilities to transfer concepts from the Recursive Internetwork Architecture (RINA) for solving challenges in the area of Delay- and Disruption-tolerant Networking using a practical scenario-driven approach.

VIEW PROJECT (GERMAN)

D3TN Enterprise Stack is a project to develop a market-ready product based on the µD3TN open-source project.
