The Challenge | Internet on the Ocean

The internet is not easily accessible in many areas of the world, like the Earth’s oceans. Fishermen, sailors, and others have limited data connection with the rest of the world. Although satellite internet is widely available, it is very expensive for a user to implement. Your challenge is to design a low-cost method of delivering internet to people located far away on the ocean.

MAX-LC

HighSpeed - Low cost by using both wimax and LCRD in one tower using wimax to send the signals to the ships using LCRD to transfere the data from Main WiMAX tower to WiMAX towers on Oil Platforms and islands using any WiMAX tower to send data to ships

Background:

Wireless connection, wi-max Technology & LCRD
