Description :
Wimax or "Wireless(Wi)Microwave Access (MA)" is a wireless networking standard for interoperability across IEEE 802.16* standard based products. Wimax can operate in both the licensed(2.5 Ghz and 3.5 Ghz) and unlicensed spectrum(5.8 Ghz) unlike Wi-Fi. Wimax offers wireless coverage upto 30 miles as compared with around 100 meters of Wi-Fi. Wimax offers reliable and faster connection even when a person is away from the transmitter. Wimax is easy to install and this can be beneficial for emerging markets and rural areas which still havn't got broadband coonection.
Enablers :
- Support from Intel
- Larger coverage area
- The need for broadband connection while on the move
- The lower range of Wi-Fi
- Operating in both Licensed and unlicensed spectrum
- Better Quality of service
Inhibitors :
- Government regulations
- Spectrum limitations
- Cost
- People's expectations
- Interoperability of products
Paradigms :
- Wimax Forum
- Development of Wimax silicon code named Rosedale by Intel
Experts :
- Intel
Timing :
- 2004- development of 802.16-2004 standard
- 2005- development of 802.16e standard
