CIP - cognitive identification of post-disaster communications

Abstract

Disasters in last decade have rapidly increased the research activities related to emergency communications. This paper presents a model for cognitive identification of post-disaster situation. A two-state model for mobile handsets along with a software based identification module is introduced for the said purpose. This paper also discusses implementation solutions based on: traditional cellular network features, cognitive radio using game theory and artificial neural networks. At the end of paper we present analysis considering the time taken for the identification of emergency situation and probability of false alarming of such situations.
