Abstract While mobile usage in developing countries is on an exponential growth, the penetration in rural areas is very low owing to high operational and infrastructure costs. Ad-hoc peer- to-peer mesh networks have been proposed as a cost effective solution for connectivity. This study will evaluate the viability of such a proposal.
