Modern Era History of Wireless • Radio- Jagdish Chandra Bose and Guglielmo Marconi. • Wireless- First patent by Nikola Tesla. • Wireless- Term used for everything for long time • Wireless- is a method of communication that uses low-powered radio waves to transmit data between devices. • Low Powered – Free • High Powered – Government Regulated
Some Wireless Standards • Bluetooth • DECT (Digital Enhanced Cordless Telecommunications) • DSRC (Dedicated Short Range Communications) • HIPERLAN • HIPERMAN • IEEE 802.11 • IrDA • RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) • WiFi • WiMAX • xMax • ZigBee
Content • History Of Wireless • Wimax • Advantages Over Wifi • MAC Structure • Usage Areas • Competitors • Conclusion
Wimax • Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave Access • A certification mark for products that pass conformity and interoperability tests for the IEEE 802.16 standards • Run by Wimax Forum
Content • History Of Wireless • Wimax • Advantages Over Wifi • MAC Structure • Usage Areas • Competitors • Conclusion
Advantages Over Wifi • Improved Performance • Much Greater Distances • Much Better MAC • LNOS Ability
Content • History Of Wireless • Wimax • Advantages Over Wifi • MAC Structure • Usage Areas • Competitors • Conclusion
New MAC Structure • A Regular Wifi Uses Contention access Which means competing for AP. • Wimax uses scheduling MAC Much Better for QOS required services EX: VOIP , IPTV • Mesh Networking Subscriber station and Base station at same time • OFDMA
New MAC Structure (cont.) • Supports ATM • Packet based Control • MAC is flexible enough to efficiently carry any traffic type. Payload header suppression, packing, and fragmentation, the convergence sublayers and MAC.
Frequency • Originally Working 10 to 66ghz FDD or TDD. • Now supporting 2 to 11ghz with 802.11a. OFDMA with TDMA access.
NLOS • Wifi only work on Line of Sight Areas • NON Line Of Sight capability in 2-11ghz. OFDMA.
Usage Areas • Broadband Internet Access • Voip , IPTV services • Cellular Phones
