Abstract

An infostation is an isolated pocket area, with small coverage of high bandwidth connectivity, which collects information requests of mobile users and delivers data while users are going through the coverage area. In this paper, the performance of infostations networks with single, double and triple frequencies is studied. The two-slope propagation loss model is used to calculate the signal-to-interference plus noise ratio. The effect of the propagation parameters on the infostation performance is studied.
