Cisco, Fujitsu to demonstrate mobile WiMAX with beamforming

Cisco and Fujitsu are expected to demonstrate interoperable video streaming using mobile WiMAX with beamforming and MIMO capabilities, reports EE Times. The beamforming technology is from Navini Networks, which Cisco acquired in October 2007, and the demonstrators claim it approximately doubles the capacity of Mobile WiMAX. 

According to EE Times, the demo will take place at the WiMAX World Congress taking place from Sept. 30 in Chicago, and will feature video streaming using the Cisco BWX300 WiMAX base station and the Fujitsu CPE. In the demonstration, multiple video streaming and FTP files will be wirelessly transferred between the Cisco WiMAX base station and the Fujitsu USB dongle, according EE Times.
