Potential of WiMAX is phenomenal, The challenge, then, is how to turn these possibilities into a reality.

“A to Z of WiMAX – The Complete Reference” is a book which is a step in the direction to demystify WiMAX. The key idea behind the book is

        “To pin down the technical details that make WiMAX actually work”

In A to Z of WiMAX – The Complete Reference, Deepak Pareek an expert in the field dissects critical issues of compatibility, internetworking, standardization and certification, providing audience an in-depth understanding of the field. The book is divided in four sections each covering an important aspect of subject. The centrepiece of the book is in-depth exploration of the “Disruptive Technology Innovations of WiMAX, WiMAX Deployment Planning and Successful Solution Strategies for all the stake holders”.

WiMAX, or the IEEE 802.16 standard for broadband wireless access, is increasingly gaining in popularity as a technology with significant market potential. This section as the name suggest provides an overview of WiMAX while putting forward concept of “Disruptive Technology”.

WiMAX is not one technology but a aggregation of many technology innovations bound together by IEEE 802.16 standards effort. This section, as the name suggest provides an overview of WiMAX technology and associated characteristics.

This section provides understanding about issues related to WiMAX deployment, which includes discussions about standards, certification and regulation.

This section, the last one of this book, deals with some of the major aspects of planning a successful WiMAX solution. The section deals with three major areas of business planning, deployment planning and future strategy.

The book also incorporates some detailed readings on different topics which have been touched upon in main text but were not covered for sake of larger audience. Annexure provides an overview of these topics.
