Business analysis tool based on 802.16e

  • The work being presented is supported by

a business analysis tool based on a mobile WiMAX model.

  • It is our aim to isolate trends and draw

conclusions useful for decision-making in terms of network evolution and business strategy.

Evolution of AAS solution with demand

  • Beamforming may be the best technology from the 1st year
  • Availability of equipment from the beginning is an important point for

efficient business planning.
