In this paper the technology choice in wireless broadband access and service architecture is discussed with reference to three important wireless broadband technologies and relevant parameters such as service activation, authentication and delivery, cost effectiveness and sustainability. The main focus of the article is towards wireless broadband technology deployment in developing countries and rural communities for providing innovative wireless broadband services.enMobile broadbandWireless technologyIEEE Africon 2011Wireless broadband technologiesWireless servicesWireless devicesConference PresentationMekuria, F.
