WiMax German Tavrisov Lovander Powell
Overview • Introduction • History • Application • Competing Technologies • WiMax Protocol Stack
What is WiMax? • Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave Access • OFDMA • Performance similar to WiFi with coverage of cellular networks. • Standards initiative • IEEE 802.16
History • 1990s • Telecoms investigate wireless networks for low cost last mile connectivity. • 1999 • IEEE 802.16 • Fixed WiMax • 2001 • WiMax Forum established • 2005 • IEEE 802.16e • Mobile WiMax
Application • Mobile Broadband • Solution to “Last Mile” • Triple Play • Wireless Backhaul
WiMax vs WiFi • MANs vs LANs • High Cost vs Low • Licensed vs Unlicensed • Low speed vs high speed • Mobility • QoS
WiMax vs LTE • Standards based vs Proprietary • Deployment • Backhaul vs Access
PHY LAYER • OFDM/OFDMA • Modulation and Coding • Data rates
Security Layer • Basic attacks at the PHY layer • Jamming • and packet scrambling • Security Threats • Man in the middle • Denial of Service(protocol) and (physical) • Security Measures • PKE, EAP,& EAS
MAC Layer • Frame Structure • QOS: five classifications -UNGS, rtPs, nrtPs,ertPs,and BE
Network Layer • The various IEEE 802.16 • Various ranges of the standard IEEE, d, e, & m • CPN- Customer Premise Network • CSN- Connectivity Service Network • APN- Access Service Network
