Inside Mobile WiMAX Technology

Tags:
mobile - wireless communications

Overview This paper presents an overview of mobile WiMAX technology and discusses the key role of spectrum analysis for ensuring reliable systems' operation and deployment. Mobile WiMAX (Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave Access)-IEEE-802.16e-2005 standard is a 'last mile' IP based broadband wireless solution that enables convergence of mobile and fixed broadband networks through a radio access technology known as Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiple Access OFDMA) for mobility and improved multipath performance in Non Line of Sight (NLOS) environments.

Operators cautious on new spectrum auction

Ofcom said this week it would auction its largest-ever portion of radio spectrum, which the regulator believes is most likely to be used for 3G or mobile WiMax. Because the two operators' 2G spectrum is at a much lower frequency than 3G, such a...

'Big Mobile' ready to bet the "refarm" on 3G

However, analysts say that, if those two operators were allowed to refarm their 900MHz spectrum for 3G services, rivals like T-Mobile and Orange - both of which use the higher frequency 1800MHz range for their GSM services - might object.

Harnessing the Power of Location Intelligence in the Public Sector

Throughout the world, public services today are under pressure. The current economic climate, where taxreceipts are naturally suppressed, provides very seriousfunding challenges. Moreover, in good times and bad, increasing regulation at the regional and national level is imposing additional duties and responsibilities on the public services without additional resources to carry them out. Store closures are changing the urban landscape. Demographic and/or economic change isincreasing demand for health and social services.Demand for decreased crime rates is focusing minds in law enforcement. And the threat of internationalterrorism is forcing greater contingency duties on the emergency services. The net result is a need to do more with lessquite a challenge.

IBM XIV® Storage System: Power Consumption Reinvented

Reducing power consumption is one of the most significant challenges of IT centers today. With storage needs on a steep rise, it is increasingly clear that new approaches must be explored. This IBM whitepaper shows how, on average, a traditional storage system using mirroring effectively uses less than 21% of its raw capacity, and an XIV system uses approximately 46% of its raw capacity.
