This document summarizes a technical seminar presentation on WiMAX technology. It includes sections on operating topologies like point-to-point and point-to-multipoint, architecture, methodology using QualNet, a SWOT analysis comparing 4G and WiMAX, definitions of wireless technology classifications. It also outlines the introduction and approval of WiMAX standards, speed and range of up to 50km at 75Mbps, benefits of providing high-speed broadband to rural areas as an alternative to wired networks, and concludes with a thank you.

3. INTRODUCTION
 WiMax is basically term for Standard IEEE 802.16
 Wimax can approved in January 2003

4. There are four primary topologies for IEEE 802.16 networks
Operating Topologies
P2P Topology PMP Topology

5. Multi-Hop Topology Mobile Topology

6. Wireless Technologies
Wireless technologies can be classified in different ways depending
on their range. Each wireless technology is designed to serve a
specific usage segment.
o WIRELESS WIDE AREA NETWORK (WWAN)
o WIRELESS PERSONAL AREA NETWORK (WPAN)
o WIRELESS LOCAL AREA NETWORK (WLAN)
o WIRELESS METROPOLITAN AREA NETWORK (WMAN)

7. Methodology
QualNet layer model

8.  Considering 4G characteristics, expected scenarios and market
trends,we can find out strengths, weaknesses,opportunities
and threats of 4G with better understandings.

9. What is wireless ?
 Wireless technologies are used for tasks as simple as switching
off the television or as complex
 Now wireless keyboards, PDAs, Lap’s and cellular phones have
become part of our daily life.

10. WiMax Speed and Range
 The IEEE wireless(WIMAX) standard has a range of up to 50
kilometers
 Wimax Can deliver broadband at around 75 megabits per second
(75 mbps)
 Wimax can approved in January 2003, to provide operations in
the <11GHz spectrum range ie., 2.3GHz, 2.5GHz, 3.5GHz, and
5.8GHz

11. WiMAX - Major Benefits
 This technology offers a high speed, secure, sophisticate, last
mile broadband service, and cheap solution to certain rural access
zones.
 In a fixed wireless communication, WiMAX can replace the
telephone company's copper wire networks, the cable TV's
coaxial cable infrastructure.

12. WiMAX fills the gap between Wi-Fi and Cellular, thus providing
vehicular mobility, and high service areas and data rates WiMAX
developments have been rapidly moving forward
Conclusion

14. Thank You
