why Most WiMAX solutions use radios separate from antennas ?
At the core of WiMAX is the WiMAX radio. A radio contains both a transmitter (sends) and a receiver (receives). It generates electrical oscillations at a frequency known as the…

Here I write on article How Wimax works and on wimax terminology

Point-to-Point(P2P) Point to point is used where there are two points of interest: one sender and one receiver. This is also a scenario for backhaul or the transport from the…
One of the most often heard descriptions of WiMAX in the press is that it is “Wi-Fi on steroids”. In truth, it is considerably more than that. Not only does…
Mobile WiMAX allows any telecommunications to go mobile. Mobile WiMAX takes the fixed wireless application a step furher and enables cell phone-like applications on a much larger scale. For example,…
As DSL and cable modems began to be deployed, wireless systems had to evolve to support much higher speeds to be competitive. Systems began to be developed for higher frequencies,…
The history of broadband wireless as it relates to WiMAX can be traced back to the desire to find a competitive alternative to traditional wireline-access technologies. Spurred by the deregulation…
Transmit spatial diversity is a newer phenomenon than receive diversity and has become widely implemented only in the early 2000s. Because the signals sent from different transmit antennas interfere with…
The third assumption—that the background noise is Gaussian and uncorrelated with the transmissions—is especially suspect in a cellular MIMO system. All well-designed cellular systems are by nature interference limited: If they…
Spatial Multiplexing In a multipath environment, the data rate increase due to MIMO is equal to the number of MIMO antennas. Rather than to transmit the same bit of more…
Make use of a number of receive antennas that are well separated (coherence distance) to generate independent receptions of the transmitted signal. Selection diversity: choose received signal with largest received…
