Mobile Broadband Possibilities considering the Arrival of IEEE 802.16m & LTE with an Emphasis on South Asia
This paper intends to look deeper into finding an ideal mobile broadband
solution. Special stress has been put in the South Asian region through some
comparative analysis. Proving their competency in numerous aspects, WiMAX and
LTE already have already made a strong position in telecommunication industry.
Both WiMAX and LTE are 4G technologies designed to move data rather than voice
having IP networks based on OFDM technology. So, they aren't like typical
technological rivals as of GSM and CDMA. But still a gesture of hostility seems
to outburst long before the stable commercial launch of LTE. In this paper
various aspects of WiMAX and LTE for deployment have been analyzed. Again, we
tried to make every possible consideration with respect to south Asia i.e. how
mass people of this region may be benefited. As a result, it might be regarded
as a good source in case of making major BWA deployment decisions in this
region. Besides these, it also opens the path for further research and in depth
thinking in this issue.Comment: IEEE Publication format, ISSN 1947 5500,

"Performance Evaluation of Wi-Fi comparison with WiMAX Networks"
Wireless networking has become an important area of research in academic and
industry. The main objectives of this paper is to gain in-depth knowledge about
the Wi-Fi- WiMAX technology and how it works and understand the problems about
the WiFi- WiMAX technology in maintaining and deployment. The challenges in
wireless networks include issues like security, seamless handover, location and
emergency services, cooperation, and QoS.The performance of the WiMAX is better
than the Wi-Fi and also it provide the good response in the access. It's
evaluated the Quality of Service (Qos) in Wi-Fi compare with WiMAX and provides
the various kinds of security Mechanisms. Authentication to verify the identity
of the authorized communicating client stations. Confidentiality (Privacy) to
secure that the wirelessly conveyed information will remain private and
protected. Take necessary actions and configurations that are needed in order
to deploy Wi-Fi -WiMAX with increased levels of security and privacyComment:
Multicast broadcast services support in OFDMA-based WiMAX systems [Advances in mobile multimedia]
Multimedia stream service provided by broadband wireless networks has emerged as an important technology and has attracted much attention. An all-IP network architecture with reliable high-throughput air interface makes orthogonal frequency division multiplexing access (OFDMA)-based mobile worldwide interoperability for microwave access (mobile WiMAX) a viable technology for wireless multimedia services, such as voice over IP (VoIP), mobile TV, and so on. One of the main features in a WiMAX MAC layer is that it can provide'differentiated services among different traffic categories with individual QoS requirements. In this article, we first give an overview of the key aspects of WiMAX and describe multimedia broadcast multicast service (MBMS) architecture of the 3GPP. Then, we propose a multicast and broadcast service (MBS) architecture for WiMAX that is based on MBMS. Moreover, we enhance the MBS architecture for mobile WiMAX to overcome the shortcoming of limited video broadcast performance over the baseline MBS model. We also give examples to demonstrate that the proposed architecture can support better mobility and offer higher power efficiency
Wireless communication, identification and sensing technologies enabling integrated logistics: a study in the harbor environment
In the last decade, integrated logistics has become an important challenge in
the development of wireless communication, identification and sensing
technology, due to the growing complexity of logistics processes and the
increasing demand for adapting systems to new requirements. The advancement of
wireless technology provides a wide range of options for the maritime container
terminals. Electronic devices employed in container terminals reduce the manual
effort, facilitating timely information flow and enhancing control and quality
of service and decision made. In this paper, we examine the technology that can
be used to support integration in harbor's logistics. In the literature, most
systems have been developed to address specific needs of particular harbors,
but a systematic study is missing. The purpose is to provide an overview to the
reader about which technology of integrated logistics can be implemented and
what remains to be addressed in the future
