Abstract
<p class="0keywords"><span lang="EN-GB">Over the last decade, many researchers have focused on Mobile Ad Hoc Networks as the main communication method in disaster recovery situations. In these researches, there has been marginal focus on the mobility patterns of nodes in disaster recovery scenarios. In this paper, a deeper analysis has been performed on some of the main mobility models used in testing new protocols and a new mobility model is proposed to incorporate some neglected factors concerned with disaster recovery situations.</span></p>
Highlights
Managing disasters and emergency situations requires accurate and precise messages delivery, on which sensitive decisions making in such scenarios depends [1]
Ad hoc networks are infrastructure-less networks which make the main focus of researches is how to implement them in disasters recovery areas
The proposed model enables the network to propagate the nodes into the disaster areas according to grid cells distribution
Summary
Managing disasters and emergency situations requires accurate and precise messages delivery, on which sensitive decisions making in such scenarios depends [1]. Communications play a key role in disasters recovery and emergency management situations. In order for the study of disaster recovery situations to be more realistic and of higher credibility, the mobility model that describes node movement in the network area should be representative and reflects such scenarios. This is the motive behind the proposed model iJOE ‒ Vol 13, No 6, 2017. For Ad hoc networks that will be used as a model in decision-making in such situations [3] [4]
