Abstract
When a disaster occurs, as so many people try to confirm the safety of disaster victims, network sometimes becomes congestion state. Also, at the time of calamity, network infrastructure may break down. To cope with the situation, we propose a disaster communication system, which can rapidly reconstruct the network infrastructure, and dose not force disaster victims unusual operations. We adopt WAPL (wireless access point link), that is an original mesh network, and QMS (quasi-mail server) that works as a mail server. Disaster victims do not need to be aware of the existence of WAPL and QMS. We have implemented the basis of the system, and confirmed the operations
