Abstract :
The concept of an open community network is presented as a vision for general-purpose ad hoc networks. An open community network is a novel information infrastructure for local communities based on wireless multihopping technologies. A method for calculating number of PHS (Personal Handy Phone System) devices per CP to meet traffic demands is presented and numerical examples are given. An experimental system for an open community network using PHS is described and some research issues for developing an open community network are identified
