New Technology Backgrounder from Fujitsu Details Subscriber Station Designs, Based on its WiMAX Reference Design
The Fujitsu WiMAX reference design serves as an enabling platform for developing indoor and outdoor TDD or HDX-FDD subscriber stations. System software deliverables include MAC-layer software and device drivers for various operating systems. Using these resources and the new technology backgrounder, OEMs can develop application software for configuration and control, network monitoring and management, and multiple QoS profiles for high-demand applications such as VoIP, video surveillance and audio and video streaming.
