What is Broadband Wireless?



Broadband wireless will revolutionize people's lives by enabling a high speed connection directly to the key people and information that customers want, whenever they want it. Intel believes wireless technologies such as 3G, Wi-Fi, WiMAX and UWB will coexist, working synergistically together to meet unique customer needs. It is likely that no single broadband wireless technology will become dominant or ubiquitous.

Essential Wireless Technologies:

  • Ultra-Wide Band

    Wireless Personal Area Networks (WPANs) are very small networks within a confined space, such as an office workspace or room within the home. Ultra Wideband (UWB) technologies, offering WPAN users a much faster, short-distance connection, are currently under development. More information

  • Wi-Fi


  • Wireless Local Area Networks (WLANs) have broader range than WPANs, typically confined within office buildings, restaurants, stores, homes, etc. WLANs are gaining in popularity, fueled in part by the availability of devices optimized for wireless computing such as Intel?Centrino?Mobile Technology.

  • WiMAX


  • Wireless Metropolitan Area Networks (WMANs) cover a much greater distance than WLANs, connecting buildings to one another over a broader geographic area. The emerging WiMAX technology (802.16d today and 802.16e in the near future) will further enable mobility and reduce reliance on wired connections. More information | WiMAX Demo

  • 3G


  • Wireless Wide Area Networks (WWANs) are the broadest range wireless networks, and are most widely deployed today in the cellular voice infrastructure although they also have the ability to transmit data. Next-generation cellular services based on various 3G technologies will significantly improve WWAN communications.
