WiMAX (Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave Access) is a wireless technology offering high-speed broadband access with a wide coverage area, often referred to as 'Wi-Fi on steroids.' It supports both fixed (IEEE 802.16d) and mobile (IEEE 802.16e) implementations, with mobile WiMAX being the preferred global standard. The technology enables significant improvements in data transfer speed compared to previous generations, making it a viable solution for high-performance broadband connectivity.
