To answer this question it is significant to comprehend the state of technical fragmentation experienced in the past through the mobile wireless and fixed broadband wireless industry. Early on broadband wireless systems began as expansions of indoor local area network (or LAN) technology named as Wi-Fi Technology. This standard has grown in an omnipresent and extensively accessible standard employed in short range hotspots overall the globe. But, the media access controller (or MAC) and physical layer (or PHY) patterns for this protocol are sub-optimum for outdoor citywide wireless networks or metropolitan area networks (or MAN). Latest renews and new standards like 802.11g, 802.11n and 802.11a have advanced these constituents. But, once again such technologies are configured for better performance in small venues as well as at small range.
