    Interfaces in WiMax are called Reference Points R

    R1 Interface: Interface between BS and ASN-GW.

    Handle both user traffic and control plane messages

    *R2 Interface: Interface between BS and AAA (CSN) for

    authorization, authentication and configuration

    management

    R3 Interface: Interface between the ASN and CSN

    R4 Interface: Interface between ASNs or ASN-GW.Handles the data control plan messages and mobility

    management for handover

    Layer 2: MAC (Media Access Control)

    Divided in to three sub layers

    Privacy Sub Layer: Responsible for the encryption

    Common part Sub Layer: Responsible for the connection

    management , packing user data from upper layers and fits to the

    physical frame structure

    Convergence Sub Layer: Provide higher layer protocols (IP/ATM)

    a standard interface to deliver user data to layer 2

    LTE vs. WiMax (Comparison)

    Parameters LTE WiMax

    Release 2009 2005

    Deployment ~30 commercial network ~500 commercial network

    Data Rates 100 Mbps DL/ 50 Mbps UL 45 Mbps DL/ 4 Mbps

    Coverage Signal can reach 100 Km Signal can reach 50 Km

    Power Efficiency More power efficient than

    WiMax (SC-FDMA in UL)

    Less power efficient than

    LTE (OFDMA in UL)

    Market Penetration High, as 85% of cellular

    network used 3GPPtechnology

    Low, 15% of cellular

    network used Non-3GPPtechnology

    LTE-Advance vs. WiMax 2.0(Battle for the 4G)

    LTE and WiMax are often labeled as 4G but do not fulfill the4G requirements.

    ITU-R standardize the 4G specifications

    These specifications also known as IMT-Advance:

    Max data rate for fixed access up to 1 Gbps Max data rate for mobile access up to 100 Mbps

    All IP architecture

    Scalable channel bandwidth

    LTE-Advance and WiMax 2.0 (Mobile WiMax, 802.16m) aims

    to fulfill the IMT-advance requirements.

    Currently both are in research and design phase

    Competition scenario depends on the deployment region.

    In America, Sprint Nextel plans to offer 4G over Mobile WiMax

    whereas Verizon opts LTE for the 4G

    Efforts are being made for the 3G upgrade under new cellular license.

    (CAPEX)

    Upgrade from 2G to 3G required a complete hardware

    upgrade/installation on Access side (Base stations and BSC/RNC).

    (CAPEX)

    Most of the Core networks are already upgraded to support 3G

    requirements

    Pakistan Broadband Market is not mature enough to fully utilize the 3G

    benefits,

    Only 0.9 % of the population (1,654,517/180,000,000) using broadband

    service (Source: PTA)

    Pakistani mobile/cellular market is voice and SMS centric. As 62% ofthe population (111,126,434/180,000,000) using cellular Voice and

    SMS services (Source: PTA)

    Only 1.4% (1,654,517/111,126,434) of the cellular subscribers using

    the broadband services.

    Wired broadband solutions (DSL, FTTH) & WLL licensetechnologies are fulfilling the current requirements for the fixed &

    wireless broadband requirements.

    Pakistani mobile broadband market will likely to be maturated in 2-3

    years to fully utilize the 3G services.

    Mobile TV and Video conferencing services might increase the data

    requirements for the Pakistan market.

    LTE will be mature in two to three years which also require the

    complete hardware upgrades on access and core sides.
