    WiMAX, a standards-based technology enabling the last mile wireless broadband access, is an alternative to cable and DSL – eliminating the need for direct line-of-sight with a base station. This technology utilizes OFDM modulation in the physical layer for Fixed WiMAX and scalable OFDMA with MIMO/STC for Mobile WiMAX.

    As a world leader in test and measurement solutions, Agilent Technologies continues to be at the forefront of this emerging market, offering WiMAX design and test solutions that span the entire technology lifecycle – R&D, design verifi cation & pre-conformance, conformance, manufacturing, through network deployment & service assurance.

    As a member of the WiMAX Forum®, Agilent is an active participant in the development of WiMAX conformance test procedures and documents. We have been at the forefront of providing standard-compliant design and test tools for WiMAX applications and maintain our leadership position by continuing to provide new tools for enabling technologies such as MIMO and DigRF.

    Our engineers, experts in test and measurement, have dedicated themselves to understanding the intricacies of this evolving standard to provide you with the solutions you need, when you need them. So, as you take WiMAX forward, we’re here to clear the way.

    You take WiMAX forward. Agilent clears the way.
