The WiMax-Based Mobile Communication Platform

WiMax (World Interoperability for Microwave Access) technology is the hotspot of wireless access technologies and attracts much attention. WiMax technology provides a wireless access method for users and do not constrained by physical position and cable restriction. A communication platform was designed under the protocol WiMax. The platform contains client (Vehicles) and server (Base stations). The platform contains 5 function modules including stimulating moving, position information transfer, sound communication, file transfer and routing selection. Building a mature communication platform is the most important precondition to improve the transfer efficiency in intelligent transport system. Intelligent transport system with the characteristic of low cost, less budget and high speed of transferring information is urgently needed by every city.
