Summary:
|
This Supplement to [ITU-T L.1700] provides a solution on a low-cost sustainable solution in rural and remote areas using WLAN/Wi-Fi for conventional telecom services like voice calling using Session Initiation Protocol (SIP). Access to communication and ICT infrastructure in rural areas of most developing countries is still a challenge. The inadequacy of crucial infrastructure like electricity in rural and remote areas present a significant problem. Deployment of telecommunication solutions which are low-cost and low maintenance and can be deployed easily is an inevitability in such cases. WLAN/Wi-Fi network infrastructure, configured to provide traditional telecom services like voice calling, being an overall low-cost solution can prove to be a viable solution in such cases to provide low-cost sustainable telecommunication.
