Disaster-resilient mobile network architecture

Conventional cellular networks are likely to get disturbed easily when a natural disaster (earthquake, tsunami, flooding, etc.) hits an area because of their centralized control and high-power requirements. To address this issue, we propose a new mobile network architecture having distributed controls and ad-hoc configurations. This architecture exploits the locally available resources such as frequency spectrum and lively nodes to reconfigure the network and provide emergency services. We present its design and use cases.Godkänd; 2014; 20131028 (karand)NIMO - Nordic Interaction and Mobility Research Platfor
