| Abstract |
|
In the case of large scale disaster, such as earthquake,
volcanic explosion, sea wave, more robust and flexible
nation-wide disaster information network is required not
only for governmental supporters but also residents and
volunteers than business oriented network to
communicate each other even though some parts of the
network and information system are destroyed and
disconnected.
In this paper, we introduce a larger scale distributed
disaster information network system based on Movile
Adhoc network (MANET) and overlay network. MANET
is used for the access network for residents and
volunteers around the disaster area and evacuation
places. The evacuated residents and volunteers can
flexibly communicate with others though MANET using
IP based terminals, wireless IP telephones and Mobile
PCs. On the other hand, overlay network is applied for
national wide government and local government network
to provide robust and redundant large scale disaster
information network.
By combining with both MANET access network and
overlay network, more robust and flexible, and large
scale disaster information network system can be
realized provide even some of network lines and nodes
are damaged and destroyed when the disaster happened.
