Abstract

This study evaluates the performance of Mobile Ad Hoc Networks (MANETs) in disaster recovery, addressing the gap in existing research that primarily focuses on network performance metrics. The study aims to provide a comprehensive evaluation using the Balanced Scorecard (BSC) framework, considering financial, user, process, and innovation perspectives. A quantitative approach is employed, synthesizing data from existing literature, case studies, and empirical research on MANET deployments in disaster scenarios. Key performance indicators (KPIs) are categorized into the four BSC dimensions: network efficiency (process), cost-effectiveness (financial), usability (user), and innovation capacity. The study finds that MANETs significantly enhance communication resilience during disasters but face challenges in scalability, energy consumption, and security. The BSC framework identifies high deployment feasibility and operational efficiency but highlights limitations in long-term sustainability and integration with satellite/terrestrial networks. Unlike previous studies focused solely on technical parameters, this research offers a holistic evaluation by integrating the BSC framework, providing a more comprehensive analysis. The findings suggest that adaptive routing, AI-driven optimizations, and hybrid MANET-Satellite models could improve network performance. Future research should explore real-world deployments, energy-efficient protocols, and enhanced security models using blockchain.

Abstract

Mobile Ad Hoc Networks (MANETs) and 5G technologies offer transformative capabilities for healthcare systems, especially in developing countries like Botswana. MANETs provide decentralized, flexible connectivity, while 5G ensures high-speed, low-latency communication—together enabling critical services such as telemedicine, real-time patient monitoring, and emergency response. However, their integration introduces significant security risks, including data breaches, unauthorized access, and system vulnerabilities. This paper proposes a Comprehensive Multi-Layer Security Framework to address these challenges, combining encryption, secure MANET routing protocols, 5G network slicing, blockchain authentication, and AI-driven intrusion detection. The framework aims to secure patient data at every network layer, enhancing system integrity, confidentiality, and availability. Implementation strategies include phased infrastructure development, workforce training, and the creation of data protection regulations. The study also emphasizes the importance of international cooperation and technology adaptation for resource-constrained environments. By adopting this model, Botswana can establish a secure, scalable healthcare infrastructure that supports innovation and improves access to quality care.
