Written and edited by experts who have developed WiMAXtechnology and standards
WiMAX, the Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave Access,represents a paradigm shift in telecommunications technology. Itoffers the promise of cheaper, smaller, and simpler technologycompared to existing broadband options such as DSL, cable, fiber,and 3G wireless.
WiMAX Technology and Network Evolution is the firstpublication to present an accurate, complete, and objectivedescription of mobile WiMAX technology. Each chapter was writtenand edited by experts, all of whom have been directly engaged inand lead the development of WiMAX either through the IEEE 802.16Working Group or the WiMAX Forum. As a result, the book addressesnot only key technical concepts and design principles, but also awide range of practical issues concerning this new wirelesstechnology, including:
* Detailed description of WiMAX technology features andcapabilities from both radio and network perspectives
* WiMAX technology evolution in the near and long term
* Emerging broadband services enabled by the WiMAX networks
* Regulatory issues affecting WiMAX deployment and globaladoption
* WiMAX accounting, roaming, and network management
Each chapter ends with a summary and a list of references tofacilitate further research.
Wireless engineers, service designers, product managers,telecommunications professionals, network operators, and academicswill all gain new insights into the key issues surrounding thedevelopment and implementation of mobile WiMAX. Moreover, the bookwill help them make informed management and business decisions indevising their own WiMAX strategies.
