  • Abstract
    Although both emergency and guidance systems are very important in our life; but they still suffer from drawbacks such as: overloaded of communications and networks, they built for familiar people with a given environment and know emergency contact number, they should describe emergency case and location, lack of multi-lingual and multimedia capability usage. An integrated emergency and guidance system based on WiMAX was proposes to overcome such problems. This system provides: Live audio and video coverage of emergency situations, Automatic pre-recorded SMS and MMS to emergency services, site-location and intelligent route-guidance to destinations, automatic access to victims´ information, adaptability, portability, security, flexibility, and wide area coverage
