Broadband Wireless Access

Broadband wireless access is a technology aimed at providing wireless access to data networks, with high data rates. According to 802.16-2004 standard, broadband means 'having instantaneous bandwidth greater than around 1 MHz and supporting data rates greater than about 1.5 Mb/s'. From the point of view of connectivity, broadband wireless access is equivalent to broadband wired access, such as ADSL or cable modems. Most widely used technologies are LMDS and MMDS. One particular broadband wireless access technology is being standardized by IEEE 802.16 (WiMAX).
