• Point-to-point
• Point-to-multipoint
• Multipoint-to-multipoint
• Advantages of FWA
• 3G

Explanation of FWA

• Fixed Wireless Access
• Fixed the receiver must be fixed (no mobility)
• Wireless operates on Radio frequency wave

How Does FWA Work
5
Explanation of FWA

• Coverage and speed
• 9km with 100 Mbps
• 35km with 2 Mbps

6
Variations

• Point-to-point
• Point-to-multipoint
• Multipoint-to-multipoint

7
Variations

• Point-to-Point FWA

Internet Server
Antenna
A dedicated bandwidth With high data rate

multipoint-to-multipoint system

• equipment installed in the clients location
  works as a receiver to provide access to the
  client and as a sender to pass the signals to
  other clients.
• there will a connection between every client
  and its neighboring clients.
• the network range can be expanded

9
multipoint-to-multipoint system (cont..)

• This implementation is called the mesh
  architecture .
• every client is represented as a node and the
  connections between the clients are represented
  by edges which produce the mesh.

ADVANTEGES OF FWA

• 2 and 35 miles from the wireless provider's
• network.
• speeds ranging from one up to 155 (Mbps).
• we can use it in different places , for
  example
• Restaurants
• hotels
• airports
• bookstores
• convention centers

11
Cont ..

• The computer , laptop or any device that we
  need to connect to the internet must have
  "wireless modem cards" .
• some wireless providers offer customers
  packages where they can get wireless Internet
  access at a collection of different hotspots
  (This technology called WiFi).

12
Third Generation

• high-speed Internet access on mobile, or
  cellular, phones.
• This technology would give mobile phone users
  the ability to access the Internet via their
  phone at speeds up to 2 Mbps in order to provide
  multi-media types of services.
