As the demand for broadband services continues to grow worldwide,
traditional solutions, such as digital cable and fiber optics, are
often difficult and expensive to implement, especially in rural and
remote areas. The emerging WiMAX system satisfies the growing need
for high data-rate applications such as voiceover IP, video
conferencing, interactive gaming, and multimedia streaming. WiMAX
deployments not only serve residential and enterprise users but can
also be deployed as a backhaul for Wi-Fi hotspots or 3G cellular
towers. By providing affordable wireless broadband access, the
technology of WiMAX will revolutionize broadband communications in
the developed world and bridge the digital divide in developing
countries. Part of the WiMAX Handbook, this volume focuses on the
applications of WiMAX. The book describes the logical architecture
of IEEE 802.16, introduces some of the main IEEE 802.16 family
standards, compares WiMAX to Wi-Fi, and studies the feasibility of
supporting VoIP over WiMAX. It also looks at the residential use of
WiMAX as well as the strategies of using WiMAX in remote locales
and rural communities. In addition, the book examines the backhaul
requirements of a large fixed wireless network and the problem of
centralized routing and scheduling for IEEE 802.16 mesh networks.
With the revolutionary technology of WiMAX, the lives of many will
undoubtedly improve, thereby leading to greater economic
empowerment.

Finding detailed information on WiMAX, from fundamentals to future
directions, is challenging at best. While almost everyone engaged
in wireless communications, whether they are academics or
professionals, has accumulated a variety of information on WiMAX
over time, a comprehensive, single-source would be invaluable to
have. The WiMAX Handbook is that resource, presenting what you need
to know about this innovative technology.
