WiMAX (802.16) White Papers
WiMAX and IMT-2000
Overview The inclusion of mobile WiMAX under the IMT-2000 umbrella will offer significant benefits to the mobile community by assuring the global delivery of Wireless Broadband Internet services at the lowest cost. Mobile WiMAX is based upon Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiple Access (OFDMA), an access technology standardized in the IEEE 802.16e-2005 amendment to IEEE STD 802.16. The OFDMA technology has become commonly accepted as the basis for the evolution of mobile technology towards 4G, as it can provide high data rate capability and excellent support for new features such as advanced antenna technologies to maximize coverage and the number of users supported by the network.
