We propose a novel search-and-rescue management method that relies on the aerial deployment of Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) for locating victims after floods. The sensor nodes will collect vital information such as heat signatures for…

Credibly assessing the resilience of energy infrastructure in the face of natural disasters is a salient concern facing researchers, government officials, and community members. Here, we explore the influence of the spatial distribution of…

Distribution systems are often crippled by catastrophic damage caused by a natural disaster. Well-designed hardening can significantly improve the performance of post-disaster restoration operations. Such performance is quantified by a…

Disaster response is critical to save lives and reduce damages in the aftermath of a disaster. Fundamental to disaster response operations is the management of disaster relief resources. To this end, a local agency (e.g., a local emergency…

The damage and the impact of natural disasters are becoming more destructive with the increase of urbanization. Today's metropolitan cities are not sufficiently prepared for the pre and post-disaster situations. Digital Twin technology can…

Multi-channel wireless systems have become a standard solution to address our information society's ever-increasing demand for more information transfer. The ultimate bound on the capacity such systems can achieve is the limited channel…

With advancements in microelectromechanical systems, low-power integrated circuits, and wireless communications, wireless sensor networks (WSNs) have become increasingly significant [1][2]. These distributed networks enable efficient…

Demands on the disaster response capacity of the European Union are likely to increase, as the impacts of disasters continue to grow both in size and frequency. This has resulted in intensive research on issues concerning spatially-explicit…

This paper studies the problem of spectrum shortage in an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) network during critical missions such as wildfire monitoring, search and rescue, and disaster monitoring. Such applications involve a high demand for…

In this paper, we propose a cognitive radio based Internet access framework for disaster response network deployment in challenged environments. The proposed architectural framework is designed to help the existent but partially damaged…

A novel technique is proposed to optimize energy efficiency for wireless networks based on hierarchical mobile clustering. The new bi-level clustering technique minimizes mutual interference and energy consumption in large-scale tracking…

In the electrical grid, the distribution system is themost vulnerable to severe weather events. Well-placed and coordinatedupgrades, such as the combination of microgrids, systemhardening and additional line redundancy, can greatly reduce…

The recent significant progress in realizing full-duplex~(FD) systems has opened up a promising avenue for improving quality of service (QoS) and quality of experience (QoE) in future wireless networks. There is an urgent need to address…

Recent natural disasters have highlighted the urgent need for efficient data-driven approaches to disaster management. Machine learning (ML) and deep learning (DL) techniques have shown considerable promise in enhancing the key phases of…

Every year, natural disasters such as earthquake, flood, hurricane and etc. impose immense financial and humane losses on governments owing to their unpredictable character and arise of emergency situations and consequently the reduction of…

Smart grid, regarded as the next generation power grid, uses two-way flows of electricity and information to create a widely distributed automated energy delivery network. In this work we present our vision on smart grid from the…

Natural disasters often damage ground infrastructure, making unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) essential for emergency supply delivery. Yet safe operation in complex post-disaster environments requires reliable command-and-control (C2) links;…

A main challenge of 5G and beyond wireless systems is to efficiently utilize the available spectrum and simultaneously reduce the energy consumption. From the radio resource allocation perspective, the solution to this problem is to…

Organizations in emergency settings must cope with various sources of disruption, most notably personnel loss. Death, incapacitation, or isolation of individuals within an organizational communication network can impair information passing,…

There is a trend toward the use of predictive systems in communications networks. At the systems and network management level predictive capabilities are focused on anticipating network faults and performance degradation. Simultaneously,…
