Parameter WiMAX LMDS Range 50 Kms 5 Kms Frequency 2-11 GHz 3 GHz License Combination of licensed and unlicensed spectrum Licensed spectrum Standard 802.16/16d/16e Standards activities are currently underway at the ATM Forum, the Digital Audio Video Council (DAVIC), the European Telecommunications Standards Institute (ETSI), and the International Telecommunications Union (ITU). Line of Sight Required in case of 802.16 but not required in case of 802.16d Required but can be done away with by using Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) Data Rates Upto 75 Mbps Upto 1.5 Gbps Mobility Using 802.16e, but this standard is likely to come only by 2008 No mobility offered suitable only for fixed wireless broadband

17. High data rates, high mobility along with wide area coverage are the hallmarks of future Mobile Broadband services
23. Licensed Bands Required for assuring QoS and service reliability Generally preferred in heavily populated areas Network scalability under control of operator Operator predetermine impact of license fees on business case Fewer operators means less crowding Unlicensed Unlicensed spectrum in rural areas means lower cost for the end customer Fast roll outs – no need to wait for the licensing process Counters the lengthy licensing process

65. Simplified DSL Architecture The role of the Application Service Provider, the Network Service Provider and the Access Service Provider in the DSL reference architecture are similar to the role of the ASP, NSP and NAP in the WiMAX reference architecture.
66. The migration of DSL access networks towards Ethernet based aggregation introduces a V reference point in the architecture which allows the combination of a mobile WiMAX network with a DSL access network based on Ethernet bridging.
