DTN is a mobile ad-hoc network. It is a network of similar networks in which nodes are not connected with each other all the time by using wireless connections. Traditional networks TCP/IP and MANET are responsible for sending the data by connecting the devices all around the world, but the main assumption of traditional networks is that it fails to transmit the data when end to end path does not exist. DTN provides the communication in the challenging environments where end to end path does not exist. Energy is a vital factor to deliver the message from the source to destination. Existing routing protocols in DTN are using so much energy for transferring messages from source to destination. Therefore to reduce energy consumption a new improved algorithm named as Prophet new routing algorithm has been proposed in this work. It is a hybrid approach of epidemic and prophet routing protocol. It makes a priority list to deliver the message and deliver the message according to this priority list. Experimental results are shown by using ONE simulator for the various routing algorithms in DTN by considering the parameters Energy, Overhead Ratio, Average Hop count, packet delivered and packet delivered probability .In this work, the comparison of this new routing algorithm is shown with the Epidemic and Prophet routing algorithm on the basis of energy parameters and Overhead Ratio, Average Hop count, packet delivered and packet delivered probability Experimental result shows that prophet new routing algorithm gives better result than the Epidemic and Prophet routing protocols in the both cases delivery of message and energy consumption.
