The Business Case for WiMAX in the Enterprise 2007-02-01 Intel

Intel employees worldwide increasingly need high-speed network access at home to facilitate working in global markets and in geographically dispersed teams, as well as to help balance the demands of work and home. In markets where wired broadband services are widely available, they have migrated many users from dial-up networking to wired broadband for network access from home. Trial participants saved about seven hours per week on average and worked an additional eight hours per week from home. They continue using WiMAX and other employees have since subscribed to the services.

Designing Multihop Wireless Backhaul Networks With Delay Guarantees 2006-12-09 01:00:18 Alcatel-Lucent

As wireless access technologies improve in data rates, the problem focus is shifting towards providing adequate backhaul from the wireless access points to the Internet. Existing wired backhaul technologies such as copper wires running at DSL, T1, or T3 speeds can be expensive to install or lease, and are becoming a performance bottleneck as wireless access speeds increase. Longhaul, non-line-of-sight wireless technologies such as WiMAX (802.16d) hold the promise of enabling a high speed wireless backhaul as a cost-effective alternative. However, the biggest challenge in building a wireless backhaul is achieving guaranteed performance (throughput and delay) that is typically provided by a wired backhaul. This paper explores the problem of efficiently designing a multihop wireless backhaul to connect multiple wireless access points to a wired gateway.

Ultrawideband Wireless Solutions 2006-11-04 01:00:15 Intel

The presentation provides an overview of Ultrawidband usage model and technologies and provides technical solutions to coexistence with WiMAX and WiFi on mobile platforms. It also provides an update on Intel Ultrawideband technology roadmap.

MxN (Mixed Networking): Converged Wireless Networks 2006-11-04 01:00:15 Intel

This presentation provides an understanding of WLAN, WiMAX, cellular network convergence usage models, customer requirements, and client evolution. The presentation provides an understanding of the technology stack needed to achieve network convergence and briefing on the technology issues associated with multiple antennas, and client/network interoperation to achieve handovers while maintaining power efficiency.

Muni Wi-Fi Market and RoamAD Technology Deep-Dive 2006-09-01 01:00:13 RoamAD

This webcast covers latest trends in municipal RFPs and business models, RoamAD's converged wireless platform, the commoditization of hardware, use of multi-radio nodes as opposed to single radio mesh, 4.9GHz public safety support, infrastructure-mesh architecture, use of directional antennas in preference to omni antennas, benefits of open hardware architecture, WiMAX, and a whole lot more.

Universal WiMAX: The WiMAX Solution for Both Fixed and Mobile Operators 2006-11-29 01:00:19 Alcatel

WiMAX 802.16e-based solutions are available, perform much better than WiMAX 802.16d-based solutions for fixed applications, and are the only possible WiMAX solutions for mobile deployment. Thanks to mandatory advanced radio feature support in the terminal, WiMAX 802.16e will benefit from the availability of mass-market terminals with guaranteed interoperability performance. Alcatel's strategy is to support from the outset advanced, multiple - antenna technology that is the best solution for macrocellular deployment with minimum CAPEX, improved capacity, and best coverage quality. Alcatel's specific base station architecture and WiMAX 802.16e profiles allow further radio improvements in upcoming releases to maximize the capacity of the solution. The all - IP standard architecture of 16e networks allows interfacing with many operator networks, enabling access to new services and supporting end-to-end QoS.

WiMAX at the Great Wall: Main Issues and Challenges in the Chinese Market 2007-01-13 01:00:33 Research On Asia (ROA) Group

This white paper introduces some of the main issues surrounding WiMAX in China. There exist uncertainties not only about the technology itself but also about its detailed roll out plan. As operators, equipment makers as well as handset vendors are focusing their efforts on the 3G field, they cannot afford to invest in the R&D and commercialization of WiMAX in China. Despite the obstacles, there is enough room for WiMAX to expand in China as the coverage of fixed telecom service and WiFi is narrow.

Intel Technology Re-Creates Internet Usage: Now More Personal and More Mobile (Low Bandwidth) 2006-08-01 01:00:10 Intel

Mobility is defining the future of computing. The broadband Internet is becoming a conduit for all content - entertainment, education, government, business and commerce. To reach its full potential, broadband Internet needs to be ubiquitous? and to be ubiquitous, it must be mobile. This webcast will lay out how the industry will create ubiquitous mobile computing, including Intel's roadmaps for notebeooks, smartphones and broadband wireless technologies. At the same time, the high performance, low power technologies at the heart of the mobile revolution are now driving the entire computing industry?one can look to mobility first to see "what's next".

Who will Lead Mobile Music Industry in Asia? 2006-08-01 Research On Asia (ROA) Group

This white paper focuses on Korean mobile Internet music industry copyrights. Since Korean mobile market has been characterized as mobile carrier driven market, new technology based mobile music services have been provided faster than in any other markets. However, the market seems to be in transition with a recent dispute among SKT, copyright holders and content providers.

The main issues in the Korean online music industry are introduced with a comparison to the Japanese mobile music industry.
