Answer 1

Right choice is (a) subscriber stations

For explanation I would say: Subscriber stations in WiMAX are transceivers (transmitter and receivers). They are used to convert radio signals into digital signals that can be routed to and from communication devices. There is a variety of types of WiMAX subscriber stations like portable PCMCIA cards and fixed stations that provide service to multiple users.
