PrioriNet

Abstract

During disaster scenarios, effective communication systems are essential for coordinating emergency response efforts and ensuring the safety of affected individuals. However, existing communication protocols often face challenges in providing reliable and efficient communication in these highly dynamic and resource-constrained environments. To overcome these challenges a novel energy-efficient emergency priority protocol namely PrioriNet technique which specifically tailored for urban earthquake scenarios. The protocol focuses on prioritizing the transmission of emergency data packets to ensure their prompt and reliable delivery, while appropriately managing normal data packets. The PrioriNet prioritizes the emergency messages as high and low priority messages and allocate them to energy efficient nodes efficiently. The experimental results indicates that the suggested protocol performs better than the existing LEACH technique in terms of energy consumption, network coverage, packet delivery ratio, and throughput. In emergency data scenarios, the LEACH protocol demonstrates throughputs between 0.3 Mbps and 1.2 Mbps, whereas the proposed method consistently outperforms the LEACH protocol with throughputs ranging from 0.7 Mbps to 1.8 Mbps respectively.
