Fixed Terrestrial Wireless is basically a cellular type configuration, as are Wi-Fi, WiMAX and Cellular.  The hub defines the 'central' point of the cell, and the distance covered will depend on antennas used, transmitter powers, receiver sensitivity, and the terrain and any interfering obstacles. This type of system can easily cover an area where subscribers are 5 miles from the hub.  The coverage is therefore larger than WiMAX, but limited to fixed subscriber side installations.  The deployment of this system would usually be designed to cover a predetermined area of land, which may or may not be circular.  Therefore, the hub may not be at the actual center of the cell, and the cell may not be circular.

This type of system can easily cover an area where subscribers are 5 or more miles from the hub.  The coverage is thus similar to [[WiMAX]], much larger than [[Wi-Fi]], but limited to fixed subscriber side installations.  The deployment of this system would usually be designed to cover a predetermined area of land, which may or may not be circular.  Therefore, the hub may not be at the actual center of the cell, and the cell may not be circular.
