Alcatel-Lucent End-to-End IP Wireless-Broadband Solution 6
Best-in-class WiMAX Rev-e
Alcatel-Lucent is the market leader
in WiMAX Rev-e access solutions
counting the number of commercial
network deployments and trials com-
pleted or underway worldwide. Our
hardened, industrialized base station
portfolio is in mass production, sup-
porting all frequencies — and strictly
in compliance with Rev-e standards.
Advanced antenna technology –
Alcatel-Lucent radio solutions incor-
porate beam forming and MIMO to
help optimize coverage and capacity.
By reducing interference and increasing
spectral efficiency, beam forming offers
stable performance in all environments,
and coverage improvements can reduce
the number of sites required to estab-
lish coverage by up to 40 percent —
leading to significant reductions in
both CAPEX and OPEX. Combined
with MIMO, capacity increases of
more than 40 percent become pos-
sible — a huge help as networks
dimension upwards.
Diversified base station portfolio – With
compact and light weight distributed
remote-radio options (and soon macro
form factors), the Alcatel-Lucent
portfolio allows for optimized cover-
age and capacity in any environment,
especially as the subscriber population
increases in density.
