WiMAX
O WiMAX - Worldwide Interoperability for

Microwave Access (WiMAX). O Wimax provides higher speed connection up to 8 Mbps over the area of 15 miles. O There is no need for line of sight connection between subscriber terminals and the base station in WiMAX technology and it can support hundreds if not thousands of subscribers from a single base station

O It is also specified in 802.16 standards

that it will supports low latency applications such as voice, video, and Internet access at the same time. O 802.16d O 802.16e O 802.16m

Advantages of WiMAX
O WiMAX Coverage

O Network security
O WiMAX High Speed O Multi-functionality

WiMAX vs. Wi-Fi


O Wi-Fi and WiMAX are analogous to the

O O

O
O

difference between a cordless phone and a mobile phone. WiMAX coverage is about 30 miles and Wi-Fi coverage is very limited to some small area. WiMAX architecture is design to make possible metropolitan area networking (MAN) Wi-Fi is providing only local area networking (LAN). Wi-Fi- 802.11, WiMAX- 802.16 WiMAX has greater QoS over Wi-Fi

WiMAX architecture
O The WiMAX architecture can be divided

into easily into three components for easy study. CPE Antenna and BTS station ASN gateway

RF Survey
O Purpose of Survey

The ultimate goal of RF survey is to determine the coverage requirement areas throughout a facility or city area. Physical visit to design perfect coverage providing point in terms of coverage aspect.

RF Planning Process
O Understand customer requirements for network

coverage and capacity. Procure digital maps and antenna patterns Get site information with current antenna height, locations, tower height etc.. Run preliminary RF simulation using above information create Frequency plan and run interfaces analysis. Conduct RF survey to collect actual site data. Optimize the preliminary design by incorporating accurate heights; azimuth's and tilts in design obtained the field data. Generate the site database for deployment.

O After the survey is done the installation of

the antennas and the BTS station are done. The onsite components are: Antenna ODU BTS station.

O Outdoor unit O The purpose of the ODU is to provide a

connectivity between the GPS antenna and the IDU which is in turn connected to the BTS station. 3 ODUs 3 Polarized antennas Power cable GPS cable GPS antenna Optical cable

BTS station
O The BTS station consists of the IDUs,

power cables, GPS cables and different alarms.

Back Haul Connectivity and Types


O There are about five different types of

backhaul techniques as required by BSNL A: Dark Fiber B: 8E1 Connectivity C: STM1 Connectivity D: GE Optical (GE Electrical SFP interchangeable) E: FE Optical (FE Electrical SFP interchangeable)

CUSTOMER PREMISES EQUIPEMENT (CPE)


O Basically there are three types of CPEs

used by customer: 1) Indoor CPE 2) Outdoor CPE 3) USB dongle
