Health Information Exchange for Management of Disaster Victims Using FANET

The main objective of this paper is to introduce a public system architecture and application for emergency situations that could improve the medical services by efficiently distributing resources between a FANET (Flying Ad Hoc Network) and MANET (Mobile Ad Hoc Network) hybrid network and nearby hospitals. The proposed solution has a Fog edge node that collects medical care data from the mobile network and forwards it to the medical centers. Data transmission efficiency in a high mobility scenario is ensured by the multiple paths provided by MP-OLSR routing protocol. Furthermore, MP-OLSR is evaluated in comparison to OLSR.
