WiMAX Delivers Performance & Value at 3.5 GHz

Overview WiMAX investment decisions are predicated by access to appropriately regulated, licensed spectrum. Recognizing the advantages of WiMAX, regulators around the globe have allocated considerable portions of spectrum amenable to WiMAX and continue to allocate new spectrum channels to account for interest from multiple providers as well as to address the need for scaling these networks over time. The global WiMAX community has successfully achieved some harmonization of the frequencies allocated for WiMAX. Almost three quarters of the spectrum allocated for WiMAX globally is focused in the 2.5 GHz and 3.5 GHz bands. Focusing development and deployment to a few, select bands offer greater design efficiencies as well as economies of scale - allowing steeper cost declines over time.

Designing Multihop Wireless Backhaul Networks With Delay Guarantees

As wireless access technologies improve in data rates, the problem focus is shifting towards providing adequate backhaul from the wireless access points to the Internet. Existing wired backhaul technologies such...

Throughput and Capacity of MIMO WiMAX

The work in this paper presents physical layer throughput measurement results of a WiMAX link implemented according to IEEE 802.16-2004. The measurements were carried out in an alpine and an...

Leveraging 802.16e WiMAX Technology in License-Exempt Bands

License-exempt spectrum bands make it possible for operators who do not have access to licensed spectrum to deploy wireless broadband networks. Traditionally vendors have developed specific solutions for license-exempt operators,...

A Cooperative MAC for Distributed Space-Time Coding in an IEEE 802.16 Network

In the next-generation WiMAX system, cooperative communication is being considered as an advanced technique to increase the throughput and improve the signal quality. In a cooperative scenario, multiple stations can...

Measurement Based Throughput Evaluation of Residual Frequency Offset Compensation in WiMAX

WiMAX utilizes a physical-layer based on OFDM that is very sensitive to carrier frequency offset. Even though most of this offset can be compensated using the initial training sequence, there...
