Abstract
According to some estimates, by 2010 WiMAX operators will cover areas
inhabited by more than 650 million people. Yet current deployment lags similar
previous expectations and predictions. Moreover, non-vendor, third-party
empirical evaluations of the technology are far from common. We recently
concluded our VoIP and IPTV synthetic traffic measurement and analysis studies
over fixed WiMAX at the VTT Converging Networks Laboratory in Oulu, Finland,
and briefly report our results here. Moreover, we review our simulation-based
studies of extending WiMAX in demanding, mountainous terrains, which are not
considered to be the main target deployment environments.
