“…Several papers analyze various information networks and work to optimize them given the occurrence of a disaster event and handling congestion that may occur. This includes networks of sensors (Li et al 2012;Khan and Auguin 2013), information networks (Batabyal and Bhaumik 2013;Castelli et al 2006), communication networks (Somov et al 2013;Zhao et al 2012), and air traffic networks (Purohit and Mantri 2013). Li et al (2012) apply remote sensing in disaster response.…”

A review of game theory applications in natural disaster management research

Research for efficiently planning and responding to natural disasters is of vital interest due to the devastating effects and losses caused by their occurrence, including economic deficiency, casualties, and infrastructure damage. Following the large breadth of natural disasters such as Hurricane Katrina in 2005, and the earthquake in Haiti in 2010, we observe a growing use of game theoretic models in the research concerning natural disaster management. In these models, government agencies and private companies interact as players in a disaster relief game. Notable research in these areas has studied multi-player games and multi-agency collaboration, among others, to provide insights into optimal decisions concerning defensive investment and private-public partnerships in the face of disaster occurrence. This paper aims to increase the comprehension of game theory-based research in disaster management and to provide directions for future research. We analyze and integrate 57 recent papers (2006)(2007)(2008)(2009)(2010)(2011)(2012)(2013)(2014)(2015)(2016) to summarize game theory-based research in natural disaster and emergency management. We find that the response phase of disaster relief has been researched most extensively, and future research could be directed toward the other phases of disaster management such as mitigation, preparedness, and recovery. Attacker-defender games to be utilized relatively frequently to model both mitigation and response for a disaster. Defensive resource allocation and sequential/simultaneous games to model the interaction between agencies/individuals in light of a disaster are two other common ways to model disaster management. In addition to academia, the targeted audience of this research includes governments, private sectors, private citizens, and others who are concerned with or involved in disaster management.

“…This would be important in communicating between agents during a natural disaster to best coordinate a response. Zhao et al (2012) analyze a resource allocation problem with radio resources for communication via Aerial LTE. They use a cooperative game to model communication among users.…”

“…The authors also presented a calculation of the path loss and the traffic capacity of the overall system. An interesting work dealing with the integration of aerospace segments and 4G terrestrial networks has been proposed by Zhao et al [16]. The use of a low-medium-altitude aerial-platform-based time-duplex LTE system (i.e., Aerial-LTE) is considered in that work in order to increase the capacity for voice users in emergency scenarios.…”

Wireless telecommunications represent an important asset for public protection and disaster relief (PPDR) organizations as they improve the coordination and the distribution of information among first responders in the field. In large international disaster scenarios, many different PPDR organizations may participate to the response phase of disaster management. In this context, PPDR organizations may use different wireless communication technologies; such diversity may create interoperability barriers and degrade the coordination among first-time responders. In this paper, we present the design, the integration, and the testing of a demonstration system based on software-defined radio (SDR) technology and software communication architecture (SCA) to support PPDR operations with special focus on the provision of satellite communications. This paper describes the main components of the demonstration system, the integration activities as well as the testing scenarios, which were used to evaluate the technical feasibility. The paper also describes the main technical challenges in the implementation and integration of the demonstration system. Finally, future developments for this technology and potential deployment challenges are presented.

“…There has been a lot of work on the definition of efficiency. In view of the frequency spectrum and the power, two major radio resource categories, many researchers consider BE and PE, respectively, as the principal efficiency criterion [14,20]. The BE of a communication system is defined as the number of bits per unit bandwidth, which in the case of single-input-single-output systems corresponds to bit-per-second-per-Hertz (b/s/Hz).…”

As a prevalent network topology, mesh, has been actively researched and developed as a key solution to improve the performance and services of wireless communications. In this study, the authors carry out a comprehensive analysis of the bandwidth efficiency (BE) in b/s/Hz and power efficiency (PE) in b/s/Hz/W of carrier sense multiple access with collision avoidance, the basic medium access control protocol for wireless mesh networks (WMNs). Analysis results show that the suboptimal, not the maximal, power and BE can be achieved simultaneously under the same conditions, for example, the number of competing nodes and contention windows. Hence, the authors present a heuristic bandwidth-PE tradeoff design. Simulation results show that the authors proposed protocol works well in both single-hop and multi-hop WMNs.
