Not enough details have been published, but this announcement may provide some useful elements for a solution:
³...synchronous TDD OFDMA technology operating on dedicated licensed spectrum and is distinguished by its high discovery range (up to a kilometer), discovery capacity (thousands of nearby devices) and distributed interference management. By enabling the simultaneous discovery and communication of thousands of proximal devices, FlashLinq can effectively create a "neighborhood-area network," where fixed and mobile peer applications can interact directly.² http://www.fiercewireless.com/press-releases/qualcomm-demonstrate-new-peer-p eer-technology-mobile-world-congress Two centralized dependencies are not clear yet: * Does the p2p system depend on the nearest base station or can work in crowds even without a base station? * Is there some central registry like the VLR or does p2p do the job? IMO, the clarification regarding Egypt has a much wider scope, since it addresses any kind of emergencies and many types of disasters. Thanks, Henry
