Abstract—Since the population density grows in metropolis,
more and more people lose their lives in case of disasters. In
order to locate and save these people, communication tools are
essential. Therefore, the importance of communication is
increased recently. Systems such as Global Positioning System
(GPS) are not consistent enough to locate and save a person on
time. We have developed a system that allows cellular phone
users to communicate directly, in a very short time. We use
frequency-division multiplexer (FDM) together with
time-division multiplexer (TDM) to give all the users enough
time to communicate. In this architecture, each person who
desires to make phone calls in case of an emergency would be
able to establish calls with a round-robin algorithm. The system
is also able to adjust the time limit for the users.
Index Terms—Emergency communications, bandwidth
allocation, adaptive systems.
