Application of Broadband Wireless Internet Access

Over more than the past decade, there have been persistent efforts to realize anywhere-anytime broadband wireless Internet access. For example, there has been the migration from 2G (second generation) to 3G (third generation) in cellular networks; and there has also been the boom of WiFi (IEEE 802.11) hotspots. However, the limitations have been apparent: the evolution of cellular networks could not escape the inherent bandwidth limitations; and WiFi hotspots could not overcome the limited service coverage, where broadband access (over 200Mbps in the latest standard) is only available within about 100- meter range of the service access point in a WLAN (Wireless Local Area Network).

OMESH’s solution for broadband wireless Internet access resolves the dilemma by: 1) significantly reducing the cost of municipal and community mesh infrastructure to achieve ubiquitous coverage; 2) improving the access capacity and enabling reliable multimedia sessions; 3) providing easy integration with existing infrastructure including cellular networks, and off-loading Internet data traffics on cellular networks. These unique differentiations can minimize the cost of broadband to service providers; and strengthen the revenue potential at the same time.More details…
