title = "Communication technology for remote locations - Case study of Melghat Area in Maharashtra, India",
abstract = "Communication Technology for remote locations is a major challenge faced by Cellular Operators. Availability of civil infrastructure for setting up Cell Sites, transmission connectivity, availability of power supply and higher costs of maintenance are the main factors that have hindered growth of communication facilities in such areas. A case study of Melghat Area in Amravati District in India has been presented with different options considering the above aspects for providing Voice and Data Communication. Details of technical and financial aspects have been analyzed to provide affordable & reliable communication facilities in such wide areas in all weather conditions. The paper covers in a comprehensive manner all aspects to deliver a fully functional Telecommunication Network. The above then provides immense opportunities for growth in all facets of life herein.",
