WiMAX is designed to blanket large metropolitan, suburban, or rural areas with multimegabit per second mobile broadband Internet access. Although the wide-area Internet connectivity offered by 2.5G and 3G cellular data services has been mobile, these services do not provide the broadband speeds to which users have become accustomed and that WiMAX can deliver. This paper explores the complementary nature of WiMAX and Wi-Fi, illustrating how service providers can leverage those synergies to offer compelling new services and add to their customer bases.
