Never die network extended with cognitive wireless network for disaster information system

In the actual disaster case, there is a certain possibility that electric power line is damaged and power energy cannot be supplied to those communication network devices, and eventually those wireless LANs cannot be functioned. Although mobile wireless network is easy to reconstruct than wired network, there may be the case that network disconnection is not affordable after disaster. That is, Disaster Information System needs a robust Never Die Network (NDN) which will be unaffected by any changes in environment after severe disaster. Satellite Network System is one of possible solution for such a severe disaster, but it has some problems like low throughput, large latency, high cost, and so on. On the other hands, single wireless communication like IEEE802.11a/b/g also have some problems like a possible transmission distance, throughput limitation for maintaining QoS for urgent user's situations. Therefore, NDN needs to consider about additional functions for these problems of Satellite and Wireless Network System. In this paper, we introduce Satellite System for optimal transmission control method in Cognitive Wireless Network in order to consider with severe disaster. First, as our previous study, proper wireless link and route selection is held by Extend AHP and Extend AODV with Min-Max AHP value methods for optimal transmission control in Cognitive Wireless Network. Then, check-alive function, alternate data transmission function, possible alternative route suggestion, and network reconfiguration are introduced to our proposed Disaster Information Network by using Satellite System. In the simulation, ns2 are used for the computational results to the effectiveness of the suggested transmission methods in the hybrid system of cognitive wireless and satellite network system.
