As the demand for broadband services continues to grow worldwide,
traditional solutions, such as digital cable and fiber optics, are often
difficult and expensive to implement, especially in rural and remote
areas. The emerging WiMAX system satisfies the growing need for high
data-rate applications such as voiceover IP, video conferencing,
interactive gaming, and multimedia streaming. WiMAX deployments not only
serve residential and enterprise users but can also be deployed as a
backhaul for Wi-Fi hotspots or 3G cellular towers. By providing
affordable wireless broadband access, the technology of WiMAX will
revolutionize broadband communications in the developed world and bridge
the digital divide in developing countries. Part of the WiMAX Handbook,
this volume focuses on the technologies behind WiMAX, its performance
capabilities, and its control mechanisms. The book introduces
programmable baseband processors suited for WiMAX systems, describes an
innovative methodology for the design of multi-band WiMAX antennas,
addresses space-time block codes, and reviews
space-frequency/space-time-frequency code design criteria. It also
proposes a combined call admission control and scheduling scheme,
focuses on the performance analysis of the IEEE 802.16 mesh mode, and
analyzes the performance of both single-input-single-output and
space-time-block-coded OFDM systems in mobile environments. The final
section establishes a framework of an ideal reservation period
controller, examines the ecosystem in which scheduling for IEEE 802.16e
systems must be performed, and presents a fuzzy logic controller for
admission control. With the revolutionary technology of WiMAX, the lives
of many will undoubtedly improve, thereby leading to greater economic
empowerment.
