The company I work for (a WISP) intends to submit a tender to bid for a 'wireless network deployment' in a university campus with a land size of about 6 hectares.
The ffg are required for the deployment:
1. Blanket the whole campus environment with a metro wi-fi;
2. The deployment will support roaming for mobile surfing, VoIP for mobile phones, VPN for security, bandwidth intensive applications (video streaming, voice, and data).
We are looking at deploying wireless mesh routers at various points within the campus. In view of the above:
Q1. Going by the size of the campus (6 Hectares), like how many wireless mesh routers will be required to achieve this?
Q2. How far away from each other do we need to deploy these mesh routers considering overlap coverage area which will support roaming and handoff?
