1.微波访问的全球互操作性(WiMax):
全球微波访问互操作性(WiMax)是指基于IEEE 802.16的无线通信标准,它是一种用于点对多点无线联网的较新技术,意味着它指定了不同的无线设备如何在广域内通过空中/网络进行通信。
两种类型的WiMax规范:
- 固定无线WiMax:在此固定无线WiMax规范中,人们可以从家里或其他永久性位置的台式计算机访问Internet。
- 移动无线Wimax:在此移动无线WiMax规范中,一个人可以通过移动计算机和移动设备(例如智能电话)访问WiMax网络。
2.长期演进(LTE):
长期演进(LTE)指的是达到4G速度所遵循的路径。它是无线数据传输的标准,意味着它落后于4G,而4G在全球范围内用于通过蜂窝网络传输数据。因此,可以实现更快的数据传输,例如,与以前的3G技术相比,现在下载喜欢的音乐,网站和视频确实要快得多。这是迈向第四代(4G)的最后一步,第四代为蜂窝移动通信系统提供了高性能的空中接口。因此,在2G出现之前,就出现了3G,而这种LTE被称为4G。
WiMax和LTE之间的区别:
S.No. | WIMAX | LTE |
---|---|---|
01. | Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave Access in short referred as WiMax. | Long Term Evolution in short it is referred as LTE. |
02. | WiMax is a wireless communication standard based on IEEE 802.16 and it is a newer technology for point to multipoint wireless networking means it specifies how wireless devices communicate over the air in a wide area. | LTE is not a technology rather it is a path followed to achieve 4G speed and a standard for wireless data transmission means it is behind 4G which is used worldwide for transferring data over cellular networks. |
03. | Its network architecture is Flat and IP based, Access Service Network Gateway (ASN-GW). | Its network architecture is Very flat and IP based, Evolved Node B (ENode B). |
04. | It provides mobility with target up to 120km/h. | It provides mobility with target up to 350km/h. |
05. | The subcarrier spacing can be variable due to which capacity can be varied. | Subcarrier spacing constant at 15Khz. |
06. | In this due to high channel utilization, processing that much information requires 1000 point Fast Fourier Transform (FFT). | In this due to organization of data into smaller chunks makes it process the information by lower point Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) like 16 point FFT. |
07. | Duplex mode mostly focus on Time Division Duplex (TDD). | Duplex mode mostly focus on Frequency Division Duplex (FDD). |
08. | It mostly provides fixed bandwidth. | It mostly provides flexible bandwidth. |
