WiMAX Network Planning and Optimization - 9781420066623

Contributors from around the world investigate dimensions of WiMAX network performance, providing information for a professional, technical, and academic audience interested in network planning and optimization. The first section, on WiMAX fundamentals, explains key concepts and major mechanisms of network architecture, standards and protocols, security, and related radio access technologies. It covers system frameworks, topology, capacity, mobility management, congestion control, and mesh networks. The second section, on WiMAX planning and optimization, presents practical examples and b&w illustrative figures to explain planning techniques and optimization algorithms.
