The performance of wireless communication network is important in emergency rescue operations while ensuring optimum usage of limited wireless resources. Due to the disruption of normal wireless communication in a post-disaster scenario, the sustenance of an emergency communication network plays a significant role in relief operations. Under such a scenario, it becomes crucial to monitor the performance and reliability of the protocol in a time-bound manner. Some of the prominent challenges faced by the communication network during this period are related to energy efficiency, resources allocation, reliable connectivity, QoS, network throughput, and interoperability. A comprehensive performance appraisal of the emergency network considering the above-mentioned aspects is extremely important. This review provides a comprehensive survey of the widely used communication technologies applied for setting up an emergency communication network to mitigate the post disaster aftermath. The article also delivers an overview of the integration of new technologies with the existing standards for improving the performance of the disaster communication networks. Finally, we propose some promising solutions to overcome the limitations of existing emergency communication technologies to improve the overall network performance.

Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) have restricted use by both academic and industrial societies for a while. This is due to the limited electrical and computational power of a typical sensor node. By moving toward emergency and healthcare related applications such as the disaster response, mobility has become an important feature of WSNs. Having the mobile nodes in a WSNs causes new and even more challenging technical difficulties for its designers. The existing technologies should be revised in order to comply to the new form of applications. In this paper, an enhanced mobility-aware extension to T-MAC, as one of the popular medium access control protocols in WSNs is proposed. The simulation-based experiments show that the proposed method significantly increases the throughput and packet delivery ratio of T-MAC in exchange for a small increase in power consumption.
