An ad-hoc, peer-to-peer radio access system having a series of remote terminals,
where each remote terminal is capable of forming a link, or hop, of the routing
of a call made by one of the series of terminals. The status of the battery of
each terminal which may potentially form part of the routing path of a call is
reported to other terminals, whereby the routing path for a call will be decided
also based on the status of the battery-charge of each terminal along the routing path.
