Performance of worldwide interoperability for microwave access (WIMAX) in non line of sight and multipath environment

The requirement of BWA to operate in the non line of sight and multipath environment has lead to the amendment of IEEE 802.16 standard. The amended standard which is 802.16a covers fixed BWA in the spectrum of 2 to 11 GHz has become a stepping stoned to the enhancement of the wireless broadband tech...
