WiMAX Available in 2006 is Set to Become the New Era of Wireless Broadband.


DUBLIN, Ireland -- Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/reports/c28573 ) has announced the addition of Broadband Wireless See wireless broadband.  System (WiMAX) - Market Opportunities, Strategies, and Forecasts, 2005 To 2011 to their offering

WiMAX is available in 2006 for commercial deployment. Infrastructure: requires backhaul to feed wireless network, base stations. The spectrum uses both licensed and unlicensed band See ISM band. .

WiMAX is a strong contender for high mobility enterprise applications. As the cost of WiMAX approaches that of WiFi, WiMAX becomes the next generation of wireless broadband High-speed wireless transmission of data. What is "high" speed is always a changing number. Wireless systems are typically slower than land-based, wireline networks. In the past, wireless broadband started at 250 Kbps, whereas land-based broadband was generally considered to start at T1  technology. WiMAX targets multiple site mass metropolitan applications.

WiMAX is a lot like WiFi, but unlike WiFi's 200 Meter range, WiMAX has a reach of one to 25 to 30 KM, offering a way to bring the Internet to entire communities without having to invest billions of dollars to install phone or cable networks. WiMAX can deliver favorable fa·vor·a·ble

To expand coverage, the students deployed broadband wireless equipment to set up additional wireless access points and mesh them together to form a single cloud that could extend for more than 10 miles. The military-grade equipment works even if one node goes down.

Worldwide WiMAX switch wireless WiMAX market forecasts at $34.5 million dollars are at 2005 anticipated to reach $19.9 billion by 2011. Broadband wireless markets are anticipated to grow as a result of the lower cost of implementing infrastructure using the WiMAX systems.
