Project 3: Mobile Video conferencing

Goal: To develop the test bed for mobile videoconferencing and test the characteristic and feasibility of videoconferencing in wireless LAN and WAN environment as prevailing today. Our main focus is to establish a direct video connection between ED and Paramedic in field that will facilitate the decision making process at both ends.

Methods:

  • Establish an isolated wired LAN -based test bed
  • Perform preliminary usability and feasibility of mobile devices for EMS use
  • Create test bed scenarios for mobile video-conferencing using wLAN
  • Establish QoS parameters to overcome "noisy" wLANs.
  • Move to mobile video-conferencing using wireless IP infrastructure
  • Establish an IPv6 test-bed for wired LAN and wireless LAN
  • Determine effect of encryption on video-conferencing using wireless LAN
  • Establish QoS and other mechanism to overcome overloading of emergency circuits in case of Disaster of big magnitude
