| dc.description.abstract | At present mobile phones are not a useful tool for medical control during a disaster We have estimated the number of satellite channels that would be needed for telemedicine in a major disaster using the Erlang B equation This indicated that 29 satellite channels would be sufficient for the operation of a telemedicine system for hospital to hospital communications during a major disaster in Japan Governments at local and national levels in Japan as well as private organizations require an independent satellite telecommunication infrastructure to deal with the aftermath of disasters | |
