  8. IEEE 802.16 is a MAN access technology standard • WiMAX promotes the interoperability of 802.16 devices • WiMAX is equivalent to Wi-Fi alliance • enabling BWA solutions with lower cost CPE • enabling multiple vendor support • Promoted by industry leaders who are committed to: • Support IEEE 802.16 and HIPERMAN standards • Support BWA equipment interoperability both in the network and in the cell • Achieve global acceptance; IEEE & ETSI • Provides tools to equipment manufacturers • Can be used during the OEM’s development process to ensure system interoperability WiMAX is the next revolutionary technology after WiFi! * are the property of their respective owners.

  11. Alvarion Industry Enabling Activity • WiMAX, Vice President • 802.16 equivalent to Wi-Fi Alliance • Certification body for IEEE 802.16 and ETSI HIPERMAN • Wireless Communications Assoc. (WCA) • Board member • Executive Committee, License Exempt Alliance • Foster WW growth of wireless broadband systems over license exempt spectrum • IEEE 802.16d, 802.16e • Alvarion taking lead to accelerate completion of both conformance test specs (.d) and mobility (.e) • ETSI HiperMAN (European 802.xx equivalent ) • Acting Chairman

  12. The WiMAX Vision 2004 Going Forward Fixed Indoor Solution Characteristics • Consumer – self install, auto provisioning • Portable – can ‘move’ CPE to another location in service area Applications • “Last Mile” Broadband access for consumers • Portable broadband access Mobility Solution Characteristics • CPE Native in Mobile PC • User can roam within the service area at varying speeds Applications • “Mobile” Broadband access for consumers • Always Best Connected (SNS) Fixed Outdoor Solution Characteristics • Fixed location • Installed outside of subscriber’s house • Requires truck roll Applications • E1/T1 Level Service for Enterprises • Backhaul for Hotspots • Fractional E1/T1 for SMB • Limited residential broadband access (early adopters, rural, developing countries)
