          <dc:description>Telecommunication systems play an ever-increasing&#13; and important role in ensuring timely and effective responses to&#13; emergency services. The rescue phase in which the promptness&#13; of action can save many lives during and after disaster. Disasters&#13; often come along with the destruction of the local&#13; telecommunication infrastructure causing severe problems for&#13; rescue operations. Satellite communications is then the only&#13; communication means for the rescue teams. This paper&#13; emphasizes on GSM link over satellite medium. Appropriate&#13; interface of GSM is to be chosen, which is most vulnerable to&#13; destruction. The most vulnerable interface disruption occurs to&#13; Abis interface which is defined between Base Station&#13; Transceiver (BTS) and Base Station Controller (BSC). Also&#13; Abis interface is chosen here because it can be routed over the&#13; satellite to provide cost effective communication in developing&#13; countries with poor terrestrial communication infrastructure. In&#13; this paper, the suitable protocol architecture for Abis interface&#13; over satellite medium is chosen for disaster management&#13; applications. This paper proposed a system and its&#13; implementation plan to incorporate the existing GSM system to&#13; deploy over satellite by establishing a pico BTS with a few&#13; kilometres coverage around disaster site to connect to disaster&#13; safe site for immediate relief operations.</dc:description>
