Abstract

Communication networks are vulnerable to emergencies both natural and manmade. Deployment of cost-effective, efficient and robust communications network for emergency situations is considered to be a vital problem. In this paper we propose the use of Cognitive Agents for post-disaster communications (CAP-C). Birth-death lifecycle of these mobile agents is also presented. We also presented a binary hypothesis test for evaluating the output of each cognitive agent.
