WiMAX Subscriber Station Design Using the Fujitsu 802.16-2004 SoC Reference Kit
– The Fujitsu WiMAX reference kit offers a quick way to develop Time Division Duplex (TDD) or Half Duplex Frequency Division Duplex (HDX-FDD) subscriber stations for use in WiMAX networks. The kit consists of a development board and complete MAC-layer software. The board includes Fujitsu’s MB87M3400 802.16-2004 WiMAX SoC and all the other hardware resources required for a typical subscriber station.

Design of a Multi-Sector Base Station Using the Fujitsu WiMAX SoC
– The Fujitsu WiMAX 802.16-2004 baseband SoC is designed for the development of cost-effective subscriber stations and base stations in the licensed or license-exempt bands from 2 to 11GHz. Base stations use TDD or FDD techniques to communicate with subscriber stations. The different types of base stations include pico, micro and multi-sector base stations. This note briefly discusses the TDD and FDD mode reference designs for base stations by Fujitsu. Information is provided for designing a multi-sector base station using the Fujitsu WiMAX SoC reference board design.
