2.1 Features 
2.1.1  IEEE 802.16 WiMAX Compliance 
The IEEE 802.16-2004 specifications describe a PMP broadband wireless access 
standard for systems operating in the frequency range of 2-11 GHz, and 10-66 GHz. This 
standard includes descriptions for both the Media Access Control (MAC) and the 
physical (PHY) layers. Note that the 802.16-2004 standards are subject to amendment, 
and the subscriber product design compliance applies to a specific revision of the 
standard. The outdoor subscriber product does not support mesh communication (direct 
subscriber-to-subscriber). 
Redline is an active member of the WiMAX Forum™ and is participating in 
interoperability testing in the WiMAX Forum. Redline is also an active member of the 
IEEE 802.16-2004 standards committee and has been instrumental in creating the original 
802.16-2004 standards, and is active in recommending, writing and following-up work on 
new amendments to the 802.16-2004 specifications.  
2.1.2 PHY 
Specification 
The subscriber system is designed for 2-11 GHz operation based on the WirelessMAN-
OFDM PHY definition in the IEEE 802.16-2004 specifications. The subscriber uses 
Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM). OFDM is a multi-carrier 
transmission technique where the data stream is split and transmitted (at a reduced rate) 
in parallel streams on separate sub-carriers. OFDM uses the Fast Fourier Transform 
(FFT) algorithm to implement modulation and demodulation functions. Using adequate 
channel coding and bit-interleaving, OFDM performs very well in severe multipath 
environments, mitigates frequency-selective fading, and provides high spectral 
efficiency. 
2.1.3  Time Division Duplexing (TDD) 
The subscriber system uses time division duplexing (TDD) to transmit and receive on the 
same RF channel. The subscriber can also transmit and receive using separate RF 
channels, referred to as half-duplex FDD (HD-FDD). These are both non-contention 
based methods for providing an efficient and predictable two-way PTP or PMP cell 
deployment. All uplink and downlink transmission scheduling is managed by the 
WiMAX base station. The base station sends data traffic to subscribers, polls for grant 
requests, and sends grant acknowledgements based on the total of all traffic to all 
subscribers. 
2.1.4 Coding 
Rate 
Each burst of data transmitted over the air is padded with redundant information to make 
it resistant to errors introduced during transmission. The coding rate is the ratio of user 
data to the total data transmitted including the redundant error correction data. The 
subscriber supports coding rates of 1/2, 2/3, and 3/4. 
2.1.5 Modulation 
The modulation technique specifies how the data is coded within the OFDM carriers. The 
subscriber supports BPSK, QPSK, 16 QAM, and 64 QAM modulation.
