Abstract

  • Disaster scenarios can be tricky as they create unique dangerous situations at the time of emergency.
  • A robust flying mesh network to monitor vitals inside a building in danger can be used to transfer that information to the outside world.
  • Robustness of the mesh network topology is useful when one node goes down it won’t bring the entire network down.
  • We can get more range by adding another node in the network and the data can hop through the mesh back to the gateway.
  • OpenThread is Google’s opensource mesh networking protocol for IoT devices that is secure, self healing and requires low power.
  • We can gain speed with excess bandwidth as the mesh network optimizes itself by finding a better route.
