96 Standardization Mobile WiMAX vs. Fixed WiMAX

WiMAX Status • WiMAX currently focused on fixed applications i.e. 802.16d and has growing membership (170+) • Major telco(3G) vendors are rushing in WiMAX • Nokia rejoined WiMAX and Samsung is the latest heavy hitter

Created Mobile Working Group focused on 802.16e under WiMAX • Define mobility charter and structure with major stakeholders • Activate mobility technical WG and certified WG • Profile 802.16e standards (current D5 spec.) to WiMAX specification • Time to market delivery of mobile wireless broadband • Harmonize major 3G vendors with full ecosystem vendors
