Secure and Energy Savings Communication of Flying Ad Hoc Network for Rescue Operation

Abstract

The necessity of rapid deployment of military application in complicated terrain without using existing ground-based structured communication system, it requires infrastructure less ad-hoc communication networks mainly Flying Ad Hoc Network (FANET). Infrastructure-based communication system cannot work properly in these situations due to massive destruction and loss of services. Consequently, information exchange becomes one of the major challenges in these circumstances. The transmission mechanism for rescue operation can be done using a hierarchal routing technique that enables any destination node communicate with ground-based server or any other node using intermediate relay nodes within the transmission radius. For rescue operations, rescue team coordinate between ground and FANET using rapidly deployable network with necessary relief efforts. Mobility degree of FANET nodes is much higher and it consists of set of self-configured portable mobile nodes. Hence, lack of congestion control, reliability, and energy consumption all are the main problem of such type of network. To mitigate this problem we develop a minimum energy consume secure routing protocol which makes the communication process secure and energy efficient for rescue operation of FANET.
