WiMAX

 

Airspan offer the industry's most complete range of WiMAX products consisting of four different base station solutions, a range of indoor, outdoor and mobile CPEs, network products and a comprehensive network management solution.

 

Airspan's WiMAX products benefit from a unique combination of features delivering the best economics and most attractive service propositions for mobile and fixed/nomadic/portable broadband:

 

• 512 /1024 FFT SOFDMA and 256 FFT OFDM radios for true Non-Lineof- Sight (NLOS) nomadic and portable operation
• Burst-by-burst adaptive modulation and error correction
• Class leading spectral efficiency
• High Performance radios that deliver extended link budgets
• Low latency radio interface for time critical services
• Licensed and Unlicensed band operation (3.3-3.8GHz, 4.9GHz and 5.8GHz, followed by 2.3, 2.5GHz, 5.1-5.4GHz and 5.4-5.7 GHz)
• Point to Multipoint Access and Point-to-Point backhaul.

 

Airspan's WiMAX technology has been carefully chosen to deliver IEEE 802.16e-2005 mobile WiMAX. It also provides operators with a cost effective and future-proof evolution path from Fixed to Mobile WiMAX profiles.

 

AS.MAX is the ideal WiMAX platform on which to deploy an industry standard broadband solution. It offers all the benefits of multi-vendor interoperability, decreasing CPE costs, WiMAX enabled handheld device portability with roaming and indoor, self install CPE economics, thus heralding a new era of inexpensive, ubiquitous broadband wireless access anytime, everywhere.

 

Airspan's WiMAX Strategy

 

Airspan's WiMAX strategy is to offer a comprehensive range of Mobile and Fixed WiMAX solutions, enable coexistence with current products, provide seamless upgradeability to Mobile WiMAX through the use of Software Defined Radio (SDR) and to offer unrivalled spectral efficiency through the use of advanced antenna techniques such as MIMO and Smart Antenna Systems.

 

Technology Showcase

 

• Software Defined Radio (SDR) - essential technology for simultaneous support of both Fixed and Mobile 802.16e SOFDMA PHY/MAC
• Intel WiMAX Connection 2250 technology in the CPEs - essential technology for low cost and future-proof functionality
• Transmit and Receive Diversity to improve link budget
• MIMO - Multiple antenna elements are employed to improve range and throughput
• Smart Antenna Systems - Intelligent, beamforming antenna technology to improve link budget and platform for SDMA for enhanced capacity per RF channel
• Advanced TCA (ATCA) - Industry standard Indoor equipment practice
• Fibre Optic OBSAI interface - between indoor and outdoor units (HiperMAX and HiperMAX-micro) supports distances between 300m and 3km using different fibre optic modules.
• Sophisticated Admission control and dynamic service flow provisioning technology to enable carrier-class VoIP services
• ASN gateway based on an IP networking platform
