WiMAX: Turning Technology into Revenues
Today, consumers demand ubiquitous, always-on
broadband connectivity at low cost, anywhere they are.
Leveraging a wealth of experience in broadband and
wireless communication, and based on the latest IEEE
802.16e-2005 standards, Alcatel-Lucent’s WiMAX
offerings are the answer. No other offer in the industry
so effectively addresses high-end users needing seamless
broadband mobility with a single subscription and device,
while at the same time serving users in remote villages
in emerging economies that are eager to connect to
the telephone and the Internet for the first time.
From an operator standpoint, Universal WiMAX
(802.16e-2005 or Rev-e) is a flexible broadband access
technology that opens new market opportunities in:
High growth economies, where WiMAX can deliver
High-Speed Internet (HSI) access and telephony services
— via voice over IP (VoIP) — in rural and urban environments where copper is not available, and also can meet
the needs of high-end users in urban settings.
Mature Economies marked by high penetration of
telecom services, where WiMAX allows operators
to offer their customers advanced broadband services
(video, gaming, office access) “on the go” and help
address holes in broadband coverage.
Mobile Services
• High-Speed Internet browsing on the move
• Mobile VoIP
• Mobile office, push mail, mobile e-mail
• Mobile Virtual Private Networks (VPNs)
• Mobile video gaming
• Video services (unicast streams, video on demand,
and broadcast TV)
• Push to talk, push to view
• Instant messaging
• On-board automobile entertainment, geo-location
and security services.
Fixed Services
• High-Speed Internet (wireless DSL)
• Fixed VoIP
• Enterprise leased lines
• Fixed multimedia services
• Machine-to-machine connectivity and communication
Vertical markets can also benefit from WiMAX
technology with applications in various environments
such as airports, seaports, railway stations, large enterprises, power utilities, oil platforms and more.
WiMAX also offers new entrants an efficient way to
penetrate the telecom market and challenge incumbent
operators.
A wide variety of applications — fixed, nomadic
or mobile — can be run over WiMAX, addressing
the requirements of both fixed and mobile operators
as well as ISPs or new entrants.
For example, transportation facilities can use WiMAX
to track luggage and goods, law enforcement and security
companies for rapid and flexible deployment of surveillance equipment, utility companies for telemetry and data
communications.

Deploying WiMAX at the Lowest Cost
According to business cases developed
with operators, Alcatel-Lucent’s WiMAX solution
allows typical breakevens of 36 to 60 months.
IEEE 802.16e-2005 is the Right Technology
The Alcatel-Lucent WiMAX solution is a complete, end-to-end system that is fully compliant
with the IEEE 802.16e-2005 standard. This standard affords superior performance for all types
of usage: fixed, nomadic and fully mobile. Alcatel-Lucent’s natively IP solution can be seamlessly
integrated with any IP network and efficiently complements any fixed or mobile infrastructure.
The complete WiMAX portfolio consists of carrier-grade radio-access equipment that allows
operators to deliver voice and broadband services with or without mobility to a large number
of users.
• The WiMAX Base Stations: Alcatel-Lucent 9710 Compact WiMAX Base Station (C-WBS)
and Alcatel-Lucent 9715 Light WiMAX Base Station (L-WBS) facilitate site acquisition
and installation in a wide variety of environments, while offering cost-effective operation
and flexibility for future evolution.
• The Alcatel-Lucent 9740 WiMAX Access Controller (WAC) is designed to be positioned
at the aggregation level and handles subscriber access control and authentication. It is compact
and highly scalable.
• The Alcatel-Lucent 9753 WiMAX Operation and Maintenance Center (OMC) provides easy
and cost-effective network management, operation and maintenance as well as powerful network
optimization capabilities.
Moreover, the standardized Alcatel-Lucent solution is fully interoperable with any terminal
compliant with the IEEE 802.16e-2005 standard. Operators can therefore choose from among
a wide selection of terminals to find the devices that best fit their subscribers’ needs.
