How can we calculate the maximum ground coverage of a mesh network?
Sine each node is capable of communicating over a 5Km radius, this gives us an area of A = pi * r2 = 3.14 * 25 = 78.5Km2, covered by just one Meshlium. In order to calculate the total area covered by a mesh network, we simply need to multiply this area by the total number of nodes in the network and to subtract the areas of overlapping cover.
