WiMAX is defined as Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave Access by the WiMAX
Forum, formed in June 2001 to promote conformance and interoperability of the
IEEE 802.16 standard, officially known as WirelessMAN. The Forum describes WiMAX
as "a standards-based technology enabling the delivery of last mile wireless
broadband access as an alternative to cable and DSL".
"WiMAX is not a technology, but rather a certification mark, or 'stamp of
approval' given to equipment that meets certain conformity and
interoperability tests for the IEEE 802.16 family of standards. A similar
confusion surrounds the term Wi-Fi, which like WiMAX, is a certification mark
for equipment based on a different set of IEEE standards from the 802.11
working group for wireless local area networks (WLAN). Neither WiMAX, nor
Wi-Fi is a technology but their names have been adopted in popular usage to
denote the technologies behind them. This is likely due to the difficulty of
using terms like 'IEEE 802.16' in common speech and writing." - OECD[1]
