Understanding Fixed Wireless Access What Is Fixed Wireless Access?
Network 20 Architecture 20 Understanding Fixed Wireless Access What Is Fixed Wireless Access? Alex Marcham NetworkArchitecture2020.com 1. Introduction The spread of network technology across the globe has brought huge changes to every society it touches. With smartphones and broadband internet connectivity, networks have enabled billions to keep in touch with friends and relatives, get access to vital resources and limitless entertainment, whilst expanding their economic opportunities. The network relies on the ability to add connections and bandwidth over time to support changing requirements. Otherwise, it’s easy to end up with a network built 5 years ago, for traditional traffic flows and demand, struggling to keep up with the rapidly changing landscape of applications seen today - a costly mistake for any network operator. Inside a building, it’s not too hard; run more cable through the conduits, connect the new device to the network. However, things get more complicated when networks go outside, whether an inter-building connection by an enterprise, or a service provider expanding their coverage, particularly to rural areas. No matter the size of the outdoor network, adding new connections and more bandwidth in a fast and flexible manner, whilst being economical, is not always easy. In many parts of the world, running your own cable above ground is prohibited or simply impractical. For Network Architecture 2020, and network operators, this is a pressing problem; we need to be able to effectively expand our networks wherever needed, whether small enterprise or giant service provider, in an economical manner. In some cases, copper or fibre cabling-based technologies are the right choice. -
Migration to 3G Wireless Broadband Internet and Real Options: the Case of an Operator in India
ARTICLE IN PRESS Telecommunications Policy 30 (2006) 400–419 www.elsevierbusinessandmanagement.com/locate/telpol Migration to 3G wireless broadband internet and real options: The case of an operator in India Venkata Praveen TanguturiÃ, Fotios C. Harmantzis Telecommunications Management, School of Technology Management, Stevens Institute of Technology, Hoboken, NJ 07030, USA Abstract The paper focuses on third generation wireless technologies and on alternative technologies for wireless local area networks. The authors present the evolutionary migration path from second to third generation systems. Technological, economic and behavioral factors related to decision-making towards the migration are proposed. As an example, the paper studies the case of the national incumbent operator of India. It analyzes qualitatively the migration problem from the perspective of the operator, the equipment manufacturer and the users. For the quantitative analysis, real options are used to value the investment decisions. The analysis suggests that the initial (sunk) investment cost, the average revenue per user, the growth of the subscriber base and the volatility of the markets are the key factors in the investment process. r 2006 Elsevier Ltd.

WIRELESS FIDELITY (Wi-Fi) BROADBAND NETWORK TECHNOLOGY: an OVERVIEW with OTHER BROADBAND WIRELESS NETWORKS
WIRELESS FIDELITY (Wi-Fi) BROADBAND NETWORK TECHNOLOGY: AN OVERVIEW WITH OTHER BROADBAND WIRELESS NETWORKS by Chris A. Nwabueze, M. Eng., MNSE, MNIEEE, MIEE. Silas A. Akaneme, M. Eng., MNSE, MNIEEE, MIEEE Dept. of Electrical/Electronic Engineering, Anambra State University, Uli. E-mail: [email protected]. ABSTRACT Wireless Fidelity (Wi-Fi) broadband network technology has made tremendous impact in the growth of broadband wireless networks. There exists today several Wi-Fi access points that allow employees, partners and customers to access corporate data from almost anywhere and anytime. Wireless broadband networks are expected to grow in terms of broadband speed and coverage, while Wi-Fi can be integrated with WiMAX networks to provide Internet connectivity to mobile Wi-Fi users. This paper explores the Wi-Fi broadband wireless network technology, its uses, advantages and disadvantages, comparison with other broadband wireless networks and integration with WiMAX network.

Site Acquisition Fact Sheet
Fact Sheet: How will we design the fixed wireless network? Fixed wireless background Fixed wireless systems have a long history of being used for voice and data communications, generally supporting networks operated by phone companies, cable TV companies, utilities and railways. The name ‘fixed wireless’ explains the way signals are delivered to stationary, or ‘fixed’ antennas and facilities mounted on buildings, homes and other structures. Fixed wireless is different to current mobile wireless networks, which deliver varying speeds and reception depending on how many people are moving in and out of the area and whether they are using the network for low volume e-mail or high volume downloads or video services. The National Broadband Network’s (NBN) fixed wireless network uses advanced technology called LTE (commonly referred to as 4G). The network has been designed to reduce the impact of mobile wireless variables by setting a limit on the number of premises serviced by each fixed wireless facility. People’s usage of the network will still vary, but the set number of serviced premises in each area means that the bandwidth available to each household is designed to be consistent, even in peak times of use*. To be able to achieve this each NBN fixed wireless facility needs to be situated reasonably close to the homes and business which will receive NBN’s fixed wireless network. Each customer will have a small antenna installed on the outside of their home or business, in direct line of sight to the fixed wireless facility. This setup allows for greater consistency in the speed and quality of service that can be delivered to each premises*. -
Analysis of Wifi and Wimax and Wireless Network Coexistence
International Journal of Computer Networks & Communications (IJCNC) Vol.6, No.6, November 2014 ANALYSIS OF WIFI AND WIMAX AND WIRELESS NETWORK COEXISTENCE Shuang Song and Biju Issac School of Computing, Teesside University, Middlesbrough, UK ABSTRACT Wireless networks are very popular nowadays. Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN) that uses the IEEE 802.11 standard and WiMAX (Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave Access) that uses the IEEE 802.16 standard are networks that we want to explore. WiMAX has been developed over 10 years, but it is still unknown to most people. However compared to WLAN, it has many advantages in transmission speed and coverage area. This paper will introduce these two technologies and make comparisons between WiMAX and WiFi. In addition, wireless network coexistence of WLAN and WiMAX will be explored through simulation. Lastly we want to discuss the future of WiMAX in relation to WiFi. KEY WORDS WiMAX, WiFi, wireless network, wireless coexistence, network simulation 1. INTRODUCTION With the development of multimedia communication, people need wireless broadband access with higher speed, larger coverage and mobility. The emergence of WiMAX (Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave Access) technology met the people's demand for wireless Internet to some extent. If wireless LAN technology (WLAN) solves the access problem of the "last one hundred meters", then WiMAX technology is the best access solution of the "last mile". Though WiMAX is an emerging and extremely competitive wireless broadband access technology, the development prospects of its market is still unknown. Hybrid networks as a supplement to cell based or IP packet based services, can fully reflect the characteristics of wide network coverage. -
