A Cyber-Enabled Mission-Critical System for Post-Flood Response: Exploiting TV White Space as Network Backhaul Links

A crucial problem in post-flood recovery actions is the ability to rapidly establish communication and collaboration among rescuers to conduct timely and effective search and rescue (SAR) mission given disrupted telecommunication infrastructure to support the service. Aimed at providing such proximi...
