Motorola and Intel cooperated to boost mobile WiMAX

Motorola and Intel have just announced the cooperation plan to accelerate the development of mobile WiMAX technology based on the IEEE 802.16e standard platform for both fixed and wireless broadband applications.

Intel and Motorola also plan to collaborate on certain areas within the World WiMAX Forum to ensure that network issues and devices are all properly addressed.

In addition to cooperating to promote the development of WiMax standards, two big men - one in the field of information technology and one in the field of telecommunications - also plan to cooperate in collaborating on the devices themselves Mobile, Motorola's network.

Scott Richardson, Intel's high-speed wireless network manager, WiMax technology is currently being developed strongly with the aim of providing high-speed wireless network access to businesses and users. individuals as well as for the purpose of bringing 'mobility' to every corner of today's life especially when the 802.16e standard will be adopted soon. By partnering with Motorola in the field of technology development and WiMAX standards, we believe that we can work together to develop and test devices to meet the essential standards of high-speed wireless mobile networks.

Dan Coombes, Motorola's chief technology engineer, said: 'We believe that 802.16e will be the most effective way of connecting in the future and this is also the right direction for mobile applications. and fixed. With technical features and the ability to support value-based services via IP voice and mobility, 802.16e is an ideal choice for many different applications. Collaborating with Intel to develop 802.16e standard and addressing internal network operational issues, we will develop the 802.16e application strategy for our MOTOwi4 WiMAX solutions.

Motorola and Intel are both members of the WiMAX Forum - a non-profit forum dedicated to developing WiMAX as well as high-speed wireless networking products.
