Abstract
This paper examines four scalability hypotheses of interest for mobile meshes via the following questions: ´Do meshes self-generate capacity as new nodes join?´ ´Are meshes more spectrally efficient?´ ´Do directional antennas confer significant benefits for hand-helds below 3.5GHz?´ ´No´ is the answer because these hypotheses, whilst having a theoretical basis, can be shown to rely on inappropriate real world assumptions. However the following hypothesis is found to be true: ´May meshes improve spectrum utilisation?´
