Pilot Projects Working Group

Our Mission

The IPNSIG Pilot Projects Working Group, with members from several continents, is developing technologies to test and refine the Delay and Disruption Tolerant Networking (DTN) protocols that will permit an Interplanetary Internet to be used on Earth and Space.

For this goal, the PWG has created the PWG Network, a Global DTN Network to expand the usage of the DTN Protocols.
