Isnt unlicensed spectrumwhich is used by xMaxbasically unusable because of interference?
A. The concept of a broadband wireless network operating in the unlicensed band is not a new one. In fact, there are numerous broadband wireless networks, including Wi-Fi, operating successfully in unlicensed spectrum around the world.. The key to designing a robust wireless system is to account for interference in all areas of the system and make reliability a central tenet of the design. xG has done exactly that with xMax. As an example of some of the patented interference mitigation technologies included in the system, xMax actively and pro-actively detects and avoids other signals at a rate of up to 33 times per second. Because xMax is extremely agile in terms of interference avoidance, the system has the ability to share airwaves with existing users. This ability to reuse spectrum is a benefit being actively promoted by government and industry seeking to accommodate greater and greater demands for spectrum, and is a major advantage xMax offers over competing transmission technolog
