WiMAX is a wireless technology that provides broadband internet access over long distances using point-to-multipoint transmission. It has several advantages, including open standards, support from industry leaders, global economies of scale, and enabling faster wireless broadband access on the go. WiMAX can be used to connect Wi-Fi hotspots, provide wireless internet as an alternative to cable, and deliver data and telecommunications services. It works using a base station that transmits signals to subscriber devices using advanced techniques like OFDMA and MIMO to transmit independent pieces of a signal over multiple antennas.

Future presentation by Zavdoveeva Lena What is WiMAX? • WiMAX - is a telecommunications technology that provides wireless transmission of data using a variety of transmission modes, from point-to- multipoint links to portable mobile internet access. Why WiMAX? WiMAX success stems from a robust vision incorporating four key strengths:
• Open standards-based.
• Vibrant, growing ecosystem of industry leaders.
• Global economies of scale and more attractive intellectual property environment.
• Advanced wireless technology that
enables a faster wireless broadband solution for doing more on the go. Uses The bandwidth and range of WiMAX make it suitable for the following potential applications: • Connecting Wi-Fi hotspots to the Internet. • Providing a wireless alternative to cable. • Providing data and telecommunications services. How WiMAX Works?
• The WiMAX network includes two key
components: a base station and a subscriber device. Souped-Up Wireless
• OFDMA breaks a signal into many
independent pieces.
• MIMO uses multiple antennas at both
ends of the wireless connection. The WiMAX Forum WiMAX Architecture Fixed WiMAX Standard
• Fixed WiMAX is based on the IEEE
802.16d-2004 standard. Fixed WiMAX Standard Mobile WiMAX Standard • Mobile WiMAX is based on the IEEE 802.16e-2005 standard. And like the Wi-Fi standard (IEEE 802.11), IEEE 802.16 will continue to evolve with new innovations and features. Mobile WiMAX Standard Get Ready for Your Mobile Internet Future • Hold on to your Internet! WiMAX will soon be blowing broadband Internet over the landscape, reaching into more of the places where we live, work, and play. WiMAX Glossary • Access Point.
