Abstract :
Wireless local loop (WLL) provides two-way calling services to the stationary or “fixed” users, which is intended to replace its wireline counterpart. Today, there are almost 100 WLL systems (either trials or commercial systems). This article describes the WLL architecture, the WLL technologies, WLL service descriptions, and some examples of WLL products
