WiMAX, the Broadband Wireless MAN reports on the WiMAX industry and global market. Its 18-page, succinct Executive Summary addresses key WiMAX applications, standards, major WiMAX investors and their vested interests, WiMAX impact on evolving Wi-Fi, the appeal of the 700 MHz band auctioned by the FCC, WiMAX evolution, the WiMAX Forum and its mission, and a five-year WiMAX market forecast. Abundant tables and illustrations facilitate an at-a-glance, clear understanding of the subject under discussion.
WiMAX, the Broadband Wireless MAN defines and describes WiMAX, the exciting new broadband wireless access (BWA) technology for metropolitan area networks (MANs), with service now being deployed in the US by Sprint Nextel and Clearwire — who plan to build a nationwide WiMAX network — and by other carriers and service providers on a global basis. The study cites the importance and appeal of WiMAX as a subscriber-based, broadband wireless technology for fixed, portable, nomadic, and mobile applications with convergence for data, voice, and video (triple-play) applications.
