Abstract:

The paper highlights the application of Hotspot [4] concept using Dijkstra’s Algorithm in remote areas where traditional mobile infrastructure doesn’t exist. We propose a Hotspot [5] based Ad-hoc Mesh Network called MAHOMEN to establish connectivity using a smartphone with Hotspot facility. The MAHOMEN provides a unique, innovative and self-organized infrastructure to communicate within a community residing in the remote areas. Our technology applies the Dijkstra’s algorithm (which selects the shortest path in the mesh) in the MAHOMEN for two or more devices to communicate without traditional & conventional cellular network.
