Cisco WiMAX Move
I am borrowing the quote of Neil Armstrong where when landing on the moon he stated: "That's one small step for man, one giant leap for mankind", to
compare the step Cisco took in acquiring Navini Networks. Navini's smart beam forming WiMAX technology, can compliment Cisco's 802.11 multiple input,
multiple output (MIMO) product releases for indoor and outdoor wireless networks. Cisco's carefully calculated move toward what I believe will be a
software defined radio (SDR) platform over an IP will essentially change the dynamics on the way we transverse the Internet.
WiMAX as an official 3G
technology
The ITU Radiocommunication Assembly granted final approval of an update to Recommendation ITU-R M.1457. The IMT-2000 specification is to include a
sixth radio interface, "IMT-2000 OFDMA TDD WMAN," which is based on the IEEE Standard 802.16. This makes IEEE 802.16 (WiMAX) part of the IMT-2000
family. The announcement was issued on 18 October to IEEE members by Roger B. Marks, Chair of the IEEE 802.16 Working Group on Broadband Wireless
Access. The decision enables license holders to consider WiMAX in addition to future 3G evolutionary technologies such as Ultra Mobile Broadband
(UMB) and Long-Term Evolution (LTE).
