Design of a Long Distance Wi-Fi network for the populated centers of Peru, to reduce the digital divide and times of national emergency such as Covid-19 in rural areas.

David Juan Fuentes Maza · 2023

Summary. This paper designs a long-distance Wi-Fi network for rural populated centers in Peru to connect educational institutions and reduce the digital divide. Based on field data from 22 northern Peruvian communities, the design specifies network capacity, equipment, topology, coverage, and link viability while prioritizing low costs for low-income populations. The system supports remote education during emergencies like Covid-19.
