Mobile Ad Hoc Networks have been envisioned as an appealing networking approach to be applied in disaster scenarios. The main reason is that they can be rapidly deployed over terrestrial nodes i.e. the victims and rescue team members, in order to provide them support when traditional communication infrastructure is seriously damaged or malfunctioning. Aerial Ad Hoc Networks are ad hoc networks made...
This survey paper is intended to provide an overview of the main ad hoc paradigms that can be applied to disaster response networks, highlighting their applicability to important tasks in disaster relief operations. In this way, we also review the main works found in the literature which employed ad hoc networks in disaster scenarios. Finally, we provide open challenges and future research directions...
A route selection scheme based on RSS is proposed to improve the reliability of MANETs in terms of packet delivery ratio and the usage of routing packets. The proposed approach estimates the nodequoterights arrival angle using RSS variations to obtain routequoterights lifetime and to decide about the convenience of a neighboring node. Obtained results outperform other approaches using RSS, which does...
