Abstract

Many rural regions around the world do not have good connectivity solutions which are economically viable. As a result, many of these regions remain disconnected from both the rest of the world. As of Internet World Stats 2007, the Internet penetration in North America is 69.7% of the population compared to 10.7% in Asia and 3.6% in Africa primarily restricted to urban areas. The fundamental problem in connecting rural regions is economics. None of the traditional wire-line connectivity solutions (fiber, broadband and dial-up) are economically viable for such regions. Satellite networks provide great rural coverage but at very high costs: the ISP rate for 1 Mb/s of satellite connectivity in Africa exceeds $3000/month.

For This reasons, We will describe the paper of WiMAX based Rural Extensions (WiRE), a new wireless network architecture that can provide connectivity to rural regions at extremely low costs.
