3. INTRODUCTION
-
- WiMAX (Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave Access) is a
telecommunications protocol that provides fixed and fully mobile
internet...
4. Principles of WiMAX
- Idea to built MAN networkwith high bit rate and global range
wideband access to theinternet
- Worldwide interoperability for Microwave Access.
- Founded in 2004 manged by wiMax forum
5. Features of WiMAX
- Wimax offer high speed data rate
- Wimax offer modulation and error correction
- Wimax support reliability of data
- Wimax support TDD and FDD
6. Working of WiMAX 7. Technologies used in WiMAX
- Within the marketplace, WiMAX 's main competition came from
existing, widely deployed wireless systems such as Universal Mobile
Telecommunications System (UMTS), CDMA2000 , existing Wi-Fi and
mesh networking.
8. Applications
- 1.Residential or Home and Broadband Internet Access:
- 2.Medium and small size business:
- 3.Backhaul networks for cellular base stations:
9. Advantages
- 1.Provides mobility to user with access to the Internet.
- 2. Convenient to user because of the ubiquitous
connection.
- 3. High speed radio wave data transmission (up to 10Mb).
- 4. Does not require telephone line.
- 5. Designed with better quality of service (QoS)
- 6. Non-line of sight connection.
- 7. Provides wide area connectivity up to 50km radius from
transmission tower.
10. Disadvantages
- 1. New technology which is still unstable, frequent
disconnections.
- 2. Many interference disruption/slows down connection (weather,
cordless phone, microwave oven)
- 3. Connection weakens when distance increases, away from
transmission tower.
- 4. Wireless technology more prone to hackers.
11. Future Scope
- Future Scope is considered to be a next generation technology
because this technology is aimed at replacing most of the present
wireless technologies like wifi, Bluetooth, microwave and mobile
phone technologies.
- This technology would give rise to a broad consumer market for
wireless digital devices.
- WiMAX is a technology which considered as the first step toward
4G.
12. Conclusion
- WiMAX is a technology in its infancy. It supplies solutions for
backhaul connectivity for existing wireless hotspots and also
offers end-user access in the unlicensed portion of the wireless
spectrum. Local regulations may prevent WiMAX from reaching its
full potential in the unlicensed spectrum.
- Its LOS soluions lie in the licenced portion of the spectrum
and these will be able to supply remote areas with Internet
connectivity in a cost-effective manner providing that the
licensing authorities do not overcharge providers for the
licences.
