Abstract

We describe and demonstrate a wideband wireless local loop (W-WLL) testbed concept based on local multipoint distribution services (LMDS) millimeter wireless technology but with a modified access and backbone architecture. The testbed is intended as a demonstration platform for broadband wireless services particularly for high speed internet and shared multimedia applications. The investigation is focused on the radio link design, network architecture, system integration, and compatible interface to the existing ATM fiber and satellite core networks
