What is WiMAX?
• WiMAX is a IEEE broadband wireless standard for IEEE 802.16 Wireless Metropolitan Area Networks (WMAN) (fully IP)
• There are two standards for IEEE 802.16• IEEE 802.16-2004, which defines WMAN technology for fixed
access
• IEEE 802.16e, includes mobility, handover, subchannelisationand enhanced QoS classes
• There will be 802.16m• Advanced air interface
• Convergence with LTE (in ITU)

Design of Point-to-point Radio Links
• In IEEE 802.16 standard the bit error ratio due to selective fading is zero if there is LoS
• When fading is considered, the minimum carrier-to-noise ratio, C/Nmin, is given in dB by
where mu is the link margin for uniform fading, in dB, and selective fading is negligible
• The probability P that the received power p is less or equal to p0, in the worst month, may be estimated by using an expression of the form
where F is the deep fade occurrence factor (Morita)

Conclusions• WiMAX cellular Planning aspects and PTP links design and
tools were covered in this presentation
• Coverage, interference, and capacity issues are crucial in planning
• Field trials are being conducted for the PTM cell in Covilhãwith Alvarion equipment, by using the license given by ANACOM at 3.5 GHz
• Results fit well to the modified Friis equation, γ=3
• LoS dimensioning issues were addressed
• From a planning exercise in the district of Covilhã one concluded that there is a strong need of using sectorialantennas to guarantee an adequate coverage and interference mitigation

Conclusions (cont.)• The planning tools were built to develop network planning
for Wi-Fi (indoor and outdoor) and WiMAX “thinking” about efficiency and user friendliness for students and network designers
• Coverage, capacity, and techno-economical issues were considered as they are crucial in planning
• The planning tool support several types of analysis, including, population density, LoS, power, interference, etc.
• The resulting analysis allows us to see how the several parameters could influence the network planning
• Practical deployments of PTP links were also presented
• Results are promising and will provide experimental feedback to the planning process
