In this paper, we study the end-to-end delay of a linear multihop network with mobile relays located on the line connecting the source-destination pair. The network operates in an interference-limited environment, where the interfering signals are from nodes with positions following the Poisson point process (PPP) on a two-dimensional plane. Due to node mobilities, the relay nodes are assumed to move randomly on the source-destination line by following a random waypoint mobility (RWPM) model. Based on the statistical properties of RWPM, we first analyze the probability distributions of the inter-node distance of the mobile relays. The results are then used to derive the exact analytical expressions of the end-to-end delay between a given source-destination pair. The analytical results explicitly quantify the impacts of several system parameters on the end-to-end delay, including the source-destination distance, the number of relays, the propagation parameters, and the density of interferers, etc. The optimum number of relays that can minimize the end-to-end delay is obtained. Both analytical and simulation results show that the mobility of the relay nodes can decrease the end-to-end delay.
