This paper presents the capacity and coverage performance analysis of a multiradio multihop network deployment using IEEE802.11n radios for a typical rural area in Malaysia. Insights on the relationships between various key design parameters particularly backhaul link rate, backhaul link distance/multihop distance, coverage size per MAR/total coverage size, number of MIMO spatial multiplex (SM) stream, number of MAR per branch and effective capacity per access point or per user are acquired. Two optimization objectives namely 1) to maximize coverage size and 2) to maximize backhaul distance are introduced.
