WiMAX is a broadband wireless standard that enjoys widespread support from both the computer and telecom industries worldwide, making this technology particularly cost-effective. It is engineered to deliver significant business benefits to operators and users in diverse environments (enterprise, consumer, emerging, public service), geographies and demographies (urban, suburban, rural), both over the short and long terms. This paper attempts to present the key technical features and applications of WiMAX, and illustrate them by providing examples of usage scenarios in which WiMAX would be the preferred solution.
