Re: [manet] [its] Scenarios, potential topics...

["Dearlove, Christopher (UK)" <[e-mail]>]

There are emergency service requirements where even 1 route would be an improvement on the otherwise available 0 routes. Communications down to the platform on underground railway lines would have been one on 7/7 in London.

Alex,

You just HAD to go and ask:

One of the handful of requirements differences between emergency
services and the rest of us is higher availability and survivability
needs.  Skipping some analysis steps, this always boils down to >1
route.

So the English in the above statement is not quite right: 'interface'
MUST be plural in any practical situation: interfaces.  


LTE is likely to be the big player for the radio-WAN, but there won't be
just one instantiation.  A quick scenario: an instrumented ambulance may
have one or more LANs within the vehicle to which several end systems
are attached -- vital signs sensors, VOIP handset for the EMT, etc.
quite possibly a WiFi hotspot ...  All attached to a vehicle-mounted
router.  The router has interfaces to 1) wired ethernet (for use while
in the garage), 2) commercial LTE (where coverage exists), 3) emergency
services LTE (in US, this is earmarked for 700MHz band and does not yet
in fact exist), 4) WiFi -- pick up a neighborhood hotspot, 5) satellite
or other radio-WAN network for rural areas not reachable by other means.
Any sane high Ao engineering will be picking at least two of the
above.  


Any help?
