Wireless 802.16e Standard for WiMAX, Wi-Fi, Wireless LANs and 802.11 Networks
The IEEE 802.16e standard, or mobile WirelessMAN,
was put in place to facilitate the global development of mobile broadband wireless
access (BWA) systems. The standard amends and extends the IEEE 802.16(TM) WirelessMAN standard, which
addressed Wireless Metropolitan Area Networks for broadband wireless access but
previously supported only fixed (stationary) terminals. The amended standard
specifies a system for combined fixed and mobile BWA supporting subscriber
stations moving at vehicular speeds in licensed bands under 6 GHz.
"The IEEE 802.16 WirelessMAN standard continues its evolution as a platform
upon which the broadband wireless industry can build high-performance,
cost-effective fixed, and now mobile, broadband access systems," said Roger B.
Marks, Chair of the IEEE 802.16 Working Group on Broadband Wireless Access. "The
Working Group’s open consensus process attracted the dedicated participation of
hundreds of technical experts from the world's leading service providers,
system vendors, and semiconductor suppliers. The foundation for a global
industry is now in place."
