IEEE 802.16 is a series of Wireless Broadband standards authored
by the IEEE. IEEE 802.16 is written by a working group established
by IEEE Standards Board in 1999 to develop standards for the global
deployment of broadband Wireless Metropolitan Area Networks. The
Workgroup is a unit of the IEEE 802 LAN/MAN Standards Committee.
Although the 802.16 family of standards is officially called
WirelessMAN in IEEE, it has been commercialized under the name “WiMAX”
(from "Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave Access") by the
industry alliance called the WiMAX Forum. The mission of the Forum
is to promote and certify compatibility and interoperability of
broadband wireless products based on the IEEE 802.16 standards.
The most popular implementation of the IEEE 802.16 standard is
the Mobile WirelessMAN originally defined by the 802.16e-2005 amendment
that is now in process of being deployed around the world in more
than 140 countries by more than 475 operators.
