  • What is Wimax ? A Tutorial from Quantum Networks, LLC

    WiMax, also known as IEEE 802.16, is a wireless digital communications system that is intended for wireless “metropolitan area networks”. WiMax is designed to extend lo- cal WiFi networks across greater distances, such as on a university campus...

  • Business Case Scenarios in the Deployment of a WiMAX™ Network

    It is very important for the operator or network planner to consider a variety of factors before forging ahead with WiMAX™ equipment choices and deployment alternatives. This white paper is intended to provide the reader with a perspective on the implications that various deployment choices have on the complexity and cost-effectiveness of the final WiMAX network.

  • Wimax Report - Expanding the potential of wireless services in the US using the 3.65GHz band

    For wireless broadband operators, the availability of affordable, clean spectrum in which they can deploy the most advanced technologies is critical to their success. Until recently, operators in the US have faced spectrum restrictions that have limited the market growth of wireless broadband services. License-exempt bands in the 2.4GHz and 5.8GHz frequencies have been successfully used by many operators, but interference has increasingly become an issue, especially for Point to Multipoint (PMP) networks. In these bands, operators face interference not only from other operators, but also from consumer devices (microwaves, phones, residential Wireless Local Area Network [WLAN] hardware, etc.) that make it difficult to manage interference successfully.

  • White Paper : Testing WiMAX performance in the Clear network in Portland

    On the day of the Clear launch in Portland, I had the opportunity to test the network with a laptop. My tests were clearly not systematic or very detailed, but I decided to share the results as they may be of interest to those who have not yet been able to test commercial WiMAX networks. The performance of the Clear network was consistently good, with throughput typically over 3 mbps in the downlink and between 350 and 400 kbps in the uplink. Internet browsing was fast, so I decided to spend most time checking video applications (YouTube, New York Times, and even a full screen movie from Hulu) and video-conferencing with Skype. All worked reliably well in areas with good coverage. The major limitation of the network were a few areas without sufficient coverage—which I visited twice during the day—, but this is to be expected in a new network still being optimized.

  • Scalability of WiMax - Research Paper

    Fixed broadband wireless access systems, such as the local multipoint distribution service, use an open system architecture that supports a scalable solution for Internet services over IEEE 802.16 wireless networks. This article presents an overview of various features of BWA systems toward realizing a high level of scalability to support a potentially fast expanding network. This is achieved by optimizing various network resources, which include utilizing the available bandwidth efficiently, making a minor enhancement to an existing system that minimizes the disruption to network services during the network expansion process, and combining the benefits of different features to increase network capacity.

  • alcatel-wimax-whitepaper

    Broadband Wireless Access (BWA) has been serving enterprises and operators for years, to the great satisfaction of its users. However, the new IP-based standard developed by the IEEE 802.16 is likely to accelerate adoption of the technology. It will expand the scope of usage thanks to: the possibility of operating in licensed and unlicensed frequency bands, unique performance under Non-Line-of-Sight (NLOS) conditions, Quality of Service (QoS) awareness, extension to nomadicity, and more. In parallel, the WiMAX forum, backed by industry leaders, will encourage the widespread adoption of broadband wireless access by establishing a brand for the technology and pushing interoperability between products.
