WiMAX is proposed for wireless Metropolitan Area Network(MAN) and is used in broadband access. So, it gained a lot of attention as soon as it came into the market. As we know that, WiMAX have been considered as the important segment of the future network infrastructure. It also becomes a effective solution for areas where the landline broadband access are hard to build in many urban area, and also rural area. Due to its characteristic of multipath and non-line of sight environment, it can provide excellent performance for wireless communication. Due to the flexible deployment characteristic of WiMAX, it is applicable to many networks and adapt to different kinds of scenarios. It can provide average data rate of 10Mb/s for downlink since the maximum downlink can up to 28Mbs and uplink of 63Mbs. Other than that, QoS is the important criteria to determine the quality of network. WiMAX can provide a good QoS since it able to provide the flexible mechanism for frequency time resource with the different subchannelization and MAP-based signaling scheme. WiMAX also provide the priority to us in term of mobility, security and scalability. Due to the WiMAX ease to install, we will provide a good network planning and optimization to the network, the WiMAX will be much benefit to the society and achieve the UN Millennium Goal. The market for WiMAX is big and global. According to static, the broadband wireless service generated revenue of around 1.8 billion dollar and the revenue from equipment for the year 2005 is 750 million dollar before mobile WiMAX implemented. The statistic shows that there still a lot of growth up space for Fixed WiMAX network to Mobile WiMAX network, or else from other types of network. Other than that, the implementation projects of WiMAX network are considered the largest market for Europe, US and Asia, even global market. Due to penetration rates of broadband still low in the developing countries like Malaysia, China and India. Based on that, we can find out that the optimization of WiMAX make the WiMAX provide the wireless broadband access that more convenience to people and will getting widely used in corporate field. The implementation project will create a lot of working opportunity and economic activities. On the other hand, due to good coverage WiMAX technology, broadband wireless access will increase the competencies between the network and the speed of revolution and development in the telecommunication network in our country. So, we strongly believe that WiMAX will bring up another period of rapid growing for telecommunication field and provide a better communication service to people regardless of individual
consumer sector, corporate sector and government sector. It does affect our living culture and modes if the wireless communication is getting widely used in our life. Here we mention some obvious impact of a good WiMAX network : Reduced Installation Cost and Simplified Installation: the savings in installation costs is an increased return on investment for the wireless operator, which could be the difference between success and failure of a new broadband access business, especially during an economic recession. Market Timing: Being first to the market is a significant advantage for WiMAX. WiMAX technology has already passed through the stages of development, testing and adoption, meaning it will have a head start of at least 2 years on any competitors. Applications: WiMAX will enable an increased number of applications for consumers and businesses because of its Quality of Service, range of service, and throughput improvements. Applications include the delivery of data, VoIP and streaming video. Profitability: The prominent features of WiMAX, its Quality of Service, increased bandwidth capacity, greater coverage area, reduced costs of installation and operation, and less expensive CPE prices for users, position it for higher profitability. As revenues expand, the build out process can be accelerated. Community Benefits: There is no element of American society that cannot ultimately benefit from the introduction of a wireless mobile WiMAX network in their community. Mobile WiMAX can make any business community more efficient, improve a schools performance, enhance health care and public safety, while making government more responsive to the needs of the community. And most importantly, it is an innovative technology that can be deployed rapidly and less expensively in unserved, underserved, and rural areas.
