WiFi Rural Extension (WiFiRe) is a MAC layer protocol especially designed to provide broadband communication in rural areas of India. It supports long range communication using 802.11b PHY and a MAC similar to 802.16d. This paper describes the implementation of WiFiRe MAC software stack as emulation over Ethernet. Implementation is done using C sockets and allows a user to test basic MAC functions such as connection establishment, packet flow and header construction in absence of WiFiRe hardware. The authors believe that, WiFiRe protocol implemented as part of LAN emulation can be easily ported to the WiFiRe hardware.
