WiMAX: The Technology Training Seminar
As 3G systems get deployed worldwide, the development of competitive technologies that promise additional capabilities and services at more attractive costs is also underway. WiMAX is a major contender in this arena.
This course will help you build a solid understanding of the capabilities, strengths, and limitations of WiMAX as an alternative solution for broadband wireless services. Following a brief regulatory and historical perspective, we will focus on the two biggest challenges faced by the mobile communications channel and how they are addressed in representative technologies. We'll discuss the pros and cons of the various solution approaches to the issues presented by WiMAX. We'll also discuss the optional implementation of OFDMA in conjunction with CDMA and the benefits/challenges that it presents. This will pave the way for an intensive study of how WiMAX works and the details of its physical as well as MAC layers. We will examine all of the technical issues in enough depth to allow you to make sound engineering judgments.
