This book presents the evolutionary and visionary developments of WiMAX! WiMAX Evolution: Emerging Technologies and Applications focuses on the future developments of WiMAX technology. The book discusses the evolutionary aspects of WiMAX, from the physical to the application layer, including visions from industry, standardization and research communities. Several chapters of the book will present very new and unique information as editors and their respective organizations are involved in ongoing international projects on WiMAX, developing advanced WiMAX techniques. The Editors’ in-house WiMAX test-beds enhance the book with privileged and seldom published information on practical issues.Key features: Presents evolutionary and visionary developments of WiMAX, motivating and inspiring readers to join and continue the developing workContains chapters with previously unpublished material, including measurements on real WiMAX equipment and their validation, and introduction of robust header compression in WiMAX, and moreUnique results on real WiMAX test-bedsCovers WiMAX validation, novel scenarios, applications and business, advanced WiMAX architectures, WiMAX extensions, and WiMAX evolution and future developmentsExpert authorship with a balanced mix of contributions from highly regarded professionals from top research institutes, industry and academiaThis book is an invaluable resource for product developers, research and standardization engineers in industry, professors, research scientists and advanced students in academia. Technology managers and CTOs will also find this book insightful.

Dr Marcos Katz, VTT, FinlandDr Katz received his PhD from University of Oulu, Finland in 2002. He has 20 years of experience in the field of wireless communications (industry, academia and, research institutions). He has edited 2 books and published widely in journals and conferences. He is currently a Technical Manager of EU FP6 Integrated Project dealing with new WiMAX scenarios, technical solutions and test-beds. He is developing multiantenna solutions for new WiMAX scenarios (environmental monitoring), and is also involved in exploring novel WiMAX architectures exploiting cooperation. Professor Frank Fitzek, Aalborg University, DenmarkFrank Fitzek is an Associate Professor in the Dept. of Communication Technology, University of Aalborg, Denmark, heading the Future Vision and Mobile Device group. His current research interests are in the areas of wireless and mobile communication networks, mobile phone programming, cross layer as well as energy efficient protocol design and cooperative networking. Currently Dr. Fitzek is working on robust header compression (ROHC) techniques for WiMAX as well as exploring cooperative networking concepts in WiMAX
