“…An example of improved CPS control is presented by Bakken et al [3], who discuss how the major challenges of power generation and distribution in the smart grid can be addressed with the use of real-time measurements. Buttyán et al [4] discuss the design and protection challenges of CPS, examining the importance of fault tolerance, security, and privacy in many components of CPS required to provided real-time field data including sensor nodes, networking protocols, and operating systems. Given CPSs' reliance on real-time field data, the protection of critical infrastructures provides a fascinating application for database and sensor networks.…”

With the popularity of winter tourism, the winter recreation activities have been increased day by day in alpine environments. However, large numbers of people and rescuers are injured and lost in this environment due to the avalanche accidents every year. Drone-based rescue systems are envisioned as a viable solution for saving lives in this hostile environment. To this aim, a European project named "Smart collaboration between Humans and ground-aErial Robots for imProving rescuing activities in Alpine environments (SHERPA)" has been launched with the objective to develop a mixed ground and aerial drone platform to support search and rescue activities in a real-world hostile scenarios. In this paper, we study the challenges of existing wireless technologies for enabling drone wireless communications in alpine environment. We extensively discuss about the positive and negative aspects of the standards according to the SHERPA network requirements. Then based on that, we choose Worldwide interoperability for Microwave Access network (WiMAX) as a suitable technology for drone communications in this environment. Finally, we present a brief discussion about the use of operating band for WiMAX and the implementation issues of SHERPA network. The outcomes of this research assist to achieve the goal of the SHERPA project.

“…The complexity is reflected in the layout of wireless nodes, especially when designing a critical infrastructure where the topology is required to be robust [100]. If the network is not designed to cope with the loss of several nodes, the infrastructure will fail.…”
