WiMAX Network Architecture 潘仁義 國立中正大學通訊工程學系 jypan@.tw 802.16 History The initial 802.16 standard in 2002, operates in the 10-to-66-GHz frequency band and requires LOS towers. The 802.16a extension, ratified in March 2003 allows use of 2 to 11 GHz frequency. It boasts a 50 km range and 74.7Mbit/sec. Data transfer rates and doesnt require LOS transmission. 802.16 History 802.16b Quality of service 802.16c Interoperability, with protocols and test-suite structures 802.16d Fixing things not covered by 802.16c Mobile WiMAX Mobile Technical Group (MTG) in WiMAX Forum develops the system profile for Mobile WiMAX system A Broadband wireless solution – Fix broadband network – Mobile broadband network Signaling – Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiple Access (OFDMA) – Scalable OFDMA Features High Data Rate Quality of Service Scalability Security Mobility WiMAX entity Two components Subscriber Stations (SSs) SS typically serves a building (business or residence) Base Station (BS) connected to public networks BS serves Subscriber Stations provide SS with first-mile (or last mile) access to public networks Comparisons of SFID CID Service Flow ID (SFID) does not change upon HO across BSs belonging to a single NAP SFID shall be set just once when a layer 2 service flow is originally established, and SHALL NOT be modified by HOs. SFID shall be assigned when a new service flow is set up and shall be maintained as the same value at the Anchor Data Path Function in spite of HOs. Connection ID (CID) is defined as temporary in a particular cell coverage area. CID shall be refreshed whenever MS moves into a new cell. SFID identifies a particular Layer 2 session while CID specifies a particular logical radio link. Tenets for WiMAX Network Systems Architecture Based on …… a packet-switched framework IEEE 802.16 standard and IETF RFCs Decoupling of access architecture from connectivity IP services Specifying open, published and accepted standards SHALL NOT preclude inter-technol
