Research Says Power Consuption Will Force 3G Carriers to Adopt WiMAX / Wi-Fi
Technologies
Mobile operators will soon have a bitter pill to swallow
when the conflicting needs of power consumption reduction and mobile broadband
network deployments collide. Power consumption is one of the top three network
operating expenses for carriers and should be at the core of their technology
choices for mobile broadband. |

Research Report Presents the Best Business
Case for WiMAX
The growing availability of WiMAX equipment and the early
announcement of a number of deployment plans have led to a surge of interest in
WiMAX and its potential to complement or disrupt fixed and wireless broadband
services. The WiMAX Forum and equipment vendors are strongly promoting the
application of WiMAX in a variety of market situations in both developed and
developing countries. However, in developed markets, WiMAX will face growing
competition from DSL, while in developing markets its progress will be hindered
by limited disposable income. |

Research Report Offers Insight to WiMAX
and 3G Deployments in South East Europe
WiMAX networks have been deployed
in Serbia and in Croatia by the incumbent and an alternative operator, which has
deployed a WiBRO network. A mesh WiFi network that will provide nationwide
broadband connectivity is under construction in Macedonia, with all of the
country's schools already connected. NGN/VoIP deployments are underway in
Croatia by both the incumbent and alternative operators, in Greece by an
alternative operator, in Macedonia by the incumbent operator, in Romania by the
incumbent operator and in Bulgaria by the incumbent operator. The desire to
offer broadband and convergence services are driving NGN/VoIP deployments, with
more deployments likely as the strategy of focusing on broadband and convergence
becomes more common. |

In-Stat Says 3G Carriers Are Safe Until
Mobile WiMAX Become Available in 2007
Telecom providers have made
significant efforts to compete with wireless 3G services with various Broadband
Wireless Technology (BWA) in the Asia/Pacific market, reports In-Stat
(http://www.in-stat.com). For at least another five years, however, BWA in the
form of WiMAX is unlikely to pose a big threat to 3G, as it will take longer to
mature, the high-tech market research firm says. |

WiMAX and Alternative Broadband Wireless
Services Projected to Convert Six Percent of 500 Million Mobile Wireless
Customer Base
According to Strategy Analytics' recent report: 'Beyond 3G:
looking for true mobile broadband', new alternative technologies will contribute
just 6% of the forecast 500 million mobile broadband users globally by 2010.
Despite all the hype surrounding alternative technologies like WiMAX, it is
iterations of existing technologies which will dominate the mobile broadband
arena in the short term. Technologies such as mobile WiMAX and UMTS TDD will
lead the alternative technology camp, but enhancements to existing technologies,
including HSPA and EV-DO Revision A+ will comprise the bulk of the market and
are where the money lies in the short-term. |

Potential for Mobile WiMAX &
Traditional 3G Technologies Such as UMTS TDD, FLASH-OFDM and iburst
This
report focuses on the debate over the place in the equation of fixed and mobile
WiMAX, traditional 3G technologies and their offspring - UMTS TDD, FLASH-OFDM
and iBurst. Alternative BWA technologies are evolving quickly. The biggest
change in the BWA industry is undoubtedly the WiMAX ecosystem's shift towards a
new mobile standard. Alternative broadband wireless technologies have now been
tested in actual conditions in many commercial deployments. Equipment
availability for each standard or proprietary solution is also essential, as it
drives adoption by operators and end users. |

New
Report 'WiMAX Vs. 3G: Reassessing The Viability Of WiMAX' Helps Clear the Fog
Surrounding the Purportedly Disruptive Effect of WiMAX on Existing Service
Providers
WiMAX is a term coined to describe standard, interoperable
implementations of IEEE 802.16 wireless networks, in a rather similar way to
Wi-Fi being interoperable implementations of the IEEE 802.11 Wireless LAN
standard. Defined as Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave Access, and is
described by the WiMAX Forum as "a standards-based technology enabling the
delivery of last mile wireless broadband access as an alternative to cable and
DSL." |

Face-Off: 4G vs. WiMax vs.
Wifi
Moving from 3G to 4G should simplify making applications available
to mobile users because of the faster data rates. This will make the middleware
used to adapt applications for the slower speed of wireless systems obsolete.
The availability of a complete IP based service with the security of a VPN
(Virtual Private Network) to the mobile end-user will be a major
benefit. |

Mobile WiMAX Sales Will Surpass Fixed
WiMAX in 2008, Says ABI Research
In the past year, the stationary form of
WiMAX (fixed WiMAX or 802.16-2004) has seen steady adoption in the marketplace.
But the mobile version, 802.16-2005, will be here sooner than many people think.
To be technically and economically viable, mobile WiMAX ICs must hit "sweet
spots" on a number of parameters. Vendors who find them quickly will outpace
those who don't. |

Internet-Capable Cell
WiMAX will enter the communications market
eventually, in spite of potential architectural issues that arise when
integrating multiple radio types into a small package, such as a mobile phone.
Motorola's mobile device plans include integrating WiMAX into their complete
phone portfolio. Nextel is among the lucky recipients. Motorola appears to be
halfway through the process, but in the time frame of the next 18 months the
802.16 profile is not likely to be mature enough to support existing end
products.
