The need of emerging markets telecom, specifically in the Indian telecom scenario; WiMAX is being looked as a broad-band access solution ahead of LTE and other competing technologies due its long range and high bandwidth. Voice over IP (VoIP) will potentially be the killer application for emerging market like India. This paper proposes a Kiosk based WiMAX infrastructure model to provide voice connectivity to rural Indian villages. In the proposed kiosk model, plain old telephones are connected to a WiMAX subscriber station using Foreign Exchange Subscriber and a Media Gateway. The novelty of the kiosk based infrastructure models is that it has low deployment cost from a service provider perspective, and almost negligible equipment cost for the end user.
