Community Wi-Fi White Paper
WBA Joins Forces with over 20 Major Industry Players and a number of Industry Associations to Produce Best Practice Guidelines and Highlight Use Cases
IPv6 for Carrier Wi-Fi: Wi-Fi Operator Guidelines
IPv6 is deemed a solution to multiple issues in a large scale Wi-Fi deployment. IPv6 use cases including infrastructure and user devices to be included in NGH and Passpoint future trials as well as Device Compatibility Program in WBA. An operator survey on IPv6 Usage in Wi-Fi Network has been conducted among WBA’s operator members. These guidelines explore the use cases and deployment considerations for IPv6 in carrier Wi-Fi network.
Next Generation Hotspot (NGH) – based Integrated Small Cell Wi-Fi (ISW) Networks White Paper
This whitepaper represents the first deliverable from the collaboration between the Wireless Broadband
Alliance (WBA) and Small Cell Forum (SCF) towards exploring the benefits, opportunities and challenges of
the adoption of integrated networks based on Next Generation Hotspot (NGH) Wi-Fi and Small Cells
technologies and standards. As a result, both organizations intend to put in place a common roadmap of joint
activities to accelerate the industry adoption of this crucial technological evolution.
Carrier Wi-Fi Guidelines
Carrier Wi-Fi is seen by operators as an important step forward to improve the user experience of customers, in particular because Wi-Fi is increasingly being used to deliver new services, and also for its role in cellular offload.
Rysavy Research – Strategic Use of Wi-Fi in Mobile Broadband Networks
This research paper discusses the Strategic Use of Wi-Fi in Mobile Broadband Networks.
Smarter Wi-Fi for Mobile Operator Infrastructures
This whitepaper discusses about Optimizing for coverage and capacity while offloading data from 3G/4G networks with smarter 802.11 technology.
WRIX – Location (WRIX-L)
WRIX-L defines the format and data the operators shall exchange for feeds of partner service locations. This specification includes both the file format and file exchange method. It clearly describes the Mandatory verses Optional fields in the WBA Location database so that there is uniformity of information across all the WBA Members.
