Popis
Shrnutí:In disaster scenarios, e.g., earthquakes, tsunamis, and wildfires, communication infrastructure often becomes severely damaged. To rapidly restore damaged communication systems, we propose a UAV-based mobile base station equipped with Public Safety LTE (PS-LTE) technology to provide standalone communication capabilities. The proposed system includes PS-LTE functionalities, mission-critical push-to-talk, proximity-based services, and isolated E-UTRAN operation to ensure the reliable and secure communication for emergency services. We provide a simulation result to achieve the radio coverage of mobile base station. By using this radio coverage, we find an appropriate location of the end device for performing the outdoor experiments. We develop a prototype of a proposed mobile base station and test its operation in an outdoor environment. The experimental results provide a sufficient data rate to make an independent mobile base station to restore communication infrastructure in areas that experienced environmental disasters. This prototype and experimental results offer a significant step forward in creating agile and efficient communication solutions for emergency scenarios.
