Wireless and Wireline Network Interactions in Disaster Scenarios
17 October 2005
In this paper, we examine the scope of this redundancy as expressed by telecommunications availability to users under different failure scenarios. We quantify the interaction of wireline and wireless networks during network failures and traffic overloads. The study has been performed using the Network Simulation Modeling and Analysis Re-search Tool (N-SMART), which has been developed to support detailed wireline and wireless network simulations detailed user calling behavior.
