Wi MAX is the first standard technology to deliver true broadband
mobility at speeds that enable powerful multimedia applications
such as Voice over Internet Protocol (Vo IP), online gaming, mobile
TV, and personalized infotainment. Wi MAX Security and Quality of
Service, focuses on the interdisciplinary subject of advanced
Security and Quality of Service (Qo S) in Wi MAX wireless
telecommunication systems including its models, standards,
implementations, and applications. Split into 4 parts, Part A of
the book is an end-to-end overview of the Wi MAX architecture,
protocol, and system requirements. Security is an essential element
in the wireless world and Part B is fully dedicated to this topic.
Part C provides an in depth analysis of Qo S, including mobility
management in Wi MAX. Finally, Part D introduces the reader to
advanced and future topics.
* One of the first texts to cover security, Qo S and deployments
of Wi MAX in the same book.
* Introduces the primary concepts of the interdisciplinary nature
of Wi MAX security and Qo S, and also includes discussion of hot
topics in the field.
* Written for engineers and researchers, answering practical
questions from industry and the experimental field in
academia.
* Explains how Wi MAX applications’ security and Qo S are
interconnected and interworked among the cross layers.
