Course Description:
 
WiMAX (Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave Access- IEEE 802.16) is a standards-based wireless technology (an implementation of 802.16: 802.16-2004 and 802.16e) that provides high-throughput broadband connections. WiMAX can be used for a number of applications, including "last mile" broadband connections, hotspot and cellular backhaul, and high-speed enterprise connectivity for businesses.

This course provides a detailed technical view of WiMax component and network equipment esign. It is an advanced course reviewing the technical specifications and standards from a design point of view.

After a general introduction to wireless networks, this practical course moves quickly into the WiMax (802.16-2004, 802.16e) protocols, PHY, MAC (Media Access Control), framing, TDD/FDD, FDMA/OFDMA, planning and design. Real-world experiences through case studies and implementation tips located throughout the course reference material.
