i need some information on designing WiMAX base
controller software. what is the best place to start ?
is it analyzing the standard or something else.
any guidelines will be highly appreciated.
fyi: we will use open source linux 2.6.18 kernel
version. we have expertise on linux kernel and its networking
details. i know that the new 802.16e MAC layer is much
more robust and needs a lot of optimization on netstack,
specifically on L2 and L3. we are also planning to buy wimax
bs chips from some renowned manufacturer. we have the
information that the at least the lower MAC and PHY layer
will be present on the chip.
what we have lack is that we don't have any experience
on designing base stations before. please help.
