Ebook Free Download | WiMAX | The past few months have seen a storm of debate about the economics and return on investment of Wi-Fi hotspots. What almost all the arguments entirely ignore is the standard lurking on the horizon, which will turn current assumptions on their head. This is the 802.16x wireless metropolitan area network (WMAN) specification, which is being developed and promoted by the WiMAX industry group, whose most powerful members are Intel and Nokia. As with Wi-Fi, the WiMAX label has now become widely acceptable as a name for the standard itself.
Intel has called 802.16 “the most important thing since the Internet itself”, and even allowing for a dose of self-serving, it is not talking entirely in hyperbole.
In July, WiMAX showed off its first system profiles and interoperability tests at the WCA annual conference in Washington DC, in a significant step towards making the 802.16a standard, ratified by the IEEE in March, a commercial technology.
