The authors consider application of wireless mesh networks in rural infrastructure deficient parts of the African continent where nodes operate on batteries. As a result energy consumption must be minimized while achieving high throughput and low delay. In this context, they are engaged in various projects to design transmission strategy to minimize the total energy consumption. They apply known modelling methods to model the proposed solutions, then simulate the network using known network simulators such as NS2 and adapt our established WMN test bed for usage in infrastructure deficient areas such as rural areas in Africa.enWireless mesh networksNetwork protocolRural areasConference PresentationNtlatlapa, N.
