Matt, with WiMAX, a 5GHz channel is enough to deliver over 17Mbps net (ftp
type net) per sector. I was not referring to 5MHz licenses as you assumed,
but only 5MHz PMP gear qualifying for use. You could use 20MHz if you
wanted, but each radio itself would use no more than 5MHz unless it was a
PTP r
The radios that exist for 900Mhz today barely qualify from a delivered
bandwidth perspective. We hardly ever lead with a 1.5Mbps service, but
sometimes are forced to sell just 1.5Mbps because we can only make the
shot with 900Mhz. If we were limited to 5Mhz with a 3.65Ghz radio then I
don't see
Respectfully, I do not agree. Look how much is done in UL with just 26MHz in
900MHz, most of which is not useable due to the noise of high power primary
users and consumer devices. Also, rural customers and operators should have
the ability to achieve high QoS services and not merely best effort.

Splitting up the band will just make it useless and interference free.

Certification is a multi stage process. The first set of certs is purely
political, you are right. Wave 1 is merely an equipment level handshake. It
is not until Wave 2 testing that the critical features needed by operators
will be tested. Our solution is already beyond that (we have over 50 full

Yes -- but WHAT are you deploying in 5.8?
The most commonly used 5.8 systems out there are EXTREMELY BASIC as compared
to what stuff out there can do -- but that is required, since interference
robustness / reliability is the #1 consideration in license-exempt band
operation
There are systems out

What do you think is going to happen?
Exactly the same thing that we have with 5.8Ghz, but without all the
non-operators. While that isn't the same as mutually exclusive spectrum,
it is a big step forward for all of us successful companies using 5.8Ghz.

A shared license (w/ zero barriers to entry, etc) w/out a very strict
coordination scheme (which will never be implemented by the FCC due to the
fact that it's A LOT of work to build, maintain and administer) is still
basically an unlicensed system
Say there are 10 operators in a market

Hi Patrick,
But all the "fancy schmancy" technology you implement won't do @#$@ unless
3650 is licensed b/c interference from 20 other systems in the area
(including several from our GPS-synced FM-based FSK friends) eats you for
breakfast, lunch & dinner =(

To say the least -- a highly upsetting (to many operators) isse about WiMAX
is the fact that not all WiMAX is created equal...
Sure, WiMAX talks about QoS, ARQ, encryption, scheduled MACs, etc -- but is
it required for base certification today?
Hehe

P.S. -- BREAKING NEWS FOR WISP types
But, 3.65 isn't going to be unlicensed; it is going to be a shared
license program. IMHO, that means that you will only have to contend
with other operators as opposed to every consumer with a laptop.

W/out a license, 3.6 is going to work just as *bad*
You really need 700 (or a <1 GHz band) to really get mobility / portability
in an unlicensed / uncoordinated environment
