WiMAX Protocol Stacks and Software Frameworks

WiMAX is the most mature 4G technology around today. With a wide installed base, this technology continues to remain a formidable force in the 4G domain, especially in emerging markets and for niche deployments.

To meet the demands of this space, Telecom Equipment Manufacturers (TEMs) need to leverage the flexible architecture of WiMAX that makes it deployable in a variety of scenarios from in-building and low-density rural networks, to high and very-high density urban networks. There is a need to not only provide feature-rich, carrier-grade products, but also to provide them quickly and cost effectively.

We have been a pioneer in WiMAX since the inception of the technology, and have helped our client's create products for some of the first commercial WiMAX networks. Our industry-proven protocol stacks and software frameworks offer very high price/performance ratios, and have been tested for interoperability with equipment from major TEMs.

WiMAX Protocol Stacks and Software Frameworks

WiMAX Integrated Gateway (WING)

WING is an integrated software solution consisting of a Profile C ASN Gateway, an Authentication, Authorization, and Accounting (AAA) Server, and Home Agent components, all co-located on a single network node which supports both nomadic and mobile subscribers. This framework can scale to support 20,000 subscribers and serve the needs of rural, tier 3, and enterprise deployments. Download Solution Brief

Base Station (BS) Framework

Our BS framework is a Release-6 compliant control plane software framework for base stations of all form factors, including macro, pico, femto and Profile-C.

Capabilities

Scalability: Can scale to meet the requirements of low to very high and all terrain density deployment scenarios.

Standards Compliance: Compliant with Network Working Group (NWG) R1.2 and R1.5 specifications.

High Availability: Support for carrier-grade high availability features that ensure session continuity is maintained across system switchover/failover.

Platform Independence: Executable on any Linux-based Commercial Off the Shelf (COTS) hardware including RMS, ATCA and uTCA platforms.

Proven Interopability: Strong ecosystem and close strategic partnerships ensure interoperability with access and core equipment from multiple leading third party vendors.

Reduced Complexity: Network layout and device management complexity simplified with WING.
