Summary:
In epidemic communication, mobile nodes carry information by themselves, and send it to other node by direct wireless communication. In this paper, we consider information sharing by using epidemic transmission as a disaster communications, and we use Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) as a message carrier in a communication between shelters. A UAV travels along the predetermined route and exchanges the information when it arrives at a shelter. After information exchange, the UAV leave the shelter and heads for the next shelter. The UAV must charge its battery in the shelters with charging equipments before their battery is empty. In this paper, we consider the several cases of information sharing between two UAVs at the specific shelter. We evaluate the performance of the information sharing by UAVs by computer simulation.
