Emergency Telecommunications using AI3 = E1-TF

1
Emergency Telecommunications using AI3 E1-TF

• or
• Internet Emergency Preparedness of AI3 (?)

2
Outline

• Emergency telecommunications?
• How AI3 can support emergency telecommunications?

3
Emergency Telecommunications

• When emergency strikes communications are for
• Response
• Recovery
• ETS (Emergency Telecommunications Service)
• Whos alive information
• Logistics information

4
Where is Our Position?

• We have satellite bandwidth
• covers Asia
• We have ground stations
• Partnership among RE institutions
• Partners have terrestrial connections
• We can provide both

5
Use of Satellite Bandwidth

• UDL for ETS
• Multicast IAA information periodically
• Non-interactive
• BDL for ETS
• For logistics and IAA
• Use available bandwidth or partner(s) stop Tx

6
Questions (Brainstorming)

• When providing UDL
• How to feed IAA info from disaster area?
• How to spread IAA info to the right persons?
• When providing BDL
• Who deploys the earth station?
• Requirements and procedures
• Our commitment
• How to formulate our commitment?
• How to work with the authorities?
• How to let others know?

Basic Statement

• We have the resources to provide emergency
  telecommunications services
• satellite bandwidth
• earth stations
• Partnerships
• and knowledge on communications.
• On the other hand, we are not experts in
  emergency managements. Therefore we will make
  efforts to research in closing the gap between
  what we have and what the real situation needs
  are.

Next Actions

• Learn from emergency management communities
• Build communication models
• Create scenarios
• Applications
• Drills

11
Discussions

• Communication models
• Provide infrastructure according to the time
  schedule
• Whats the research issue?
• Based on our commitment, how are we going to
  provide
• Should focus on very serious situations as
  temporary communications infrastructure
• If focus on tsunami, university is the place for
  gathering people
• AI3 bandwidth for alert system (tsunami, etc.)
• Terrestrial link might be better?

12
Draft Statement

• We have resources
• Bandwidth
• Earth stations
• Partnerships
• Knowledge on communications
• We have not really understand the needs for
  Emergency
• We will make efforts to research on closing the
  gap between what we have and what the needs are

13
Fund Issues

• Can we get funds from outside?
• Not necessarily get any fund?
• Otherwise?
