Wireless Is Keeping Pace With The Frequency Of Natural Disasters [telecom]

Show all headers | View raw

By Julie Song

It is no question that our society is increasingly
connectivity-reliant, especially over the last decade. So when natural
disasters occur—whether a hurricane, tornado or earthquake—their fears
are exacerbated by wireless network outages that cut off their ability
to call or text loved ones to check on their safety.

However, the real danger of these downed networks is inhibiting
communication among first responders who are tasked with coordinating
efforts to protect these individuals. Thankfully, efforts from the FCC
and mobile carriers to get wireless up and running faster than ever
before ensure that this isn’t the problem it once was a decade ago.
