Introduction

Abstract

“Demand for WiMAX in North American and European markets for products in the mobile communications category are likely to be depressed over the coming 18 months, but that is an excellent opportunity for service providers to complete infrastructure build-out in order to be ready for WiMAX-hungry consumers after the economic uncertainty has passed,” according to Kirsten West, PhD, principal analyst with WTRS. “However, in developing nations the story is quite different.”

The WTRS WiMAX Emerging Technology Report 2009, analyzes and forecasts the market for WiMAX. The report includes a thorough evaluation of emerging WiMAX technologies including IEEE 802.16e, IEEE 802.16d, and IEEE 802.16m.

The report also

analyzes the potential market opportunities for component OEMs
identifies near term and long term drivers of the market
examines potential partnership opportunities, markets, and existing alliances
contains a competitive analysis of available WiMAX chipsets
tracks the development of standards, formation of industry alliances, and evaluates participating OEMs

The report also provides a 5-year forecast that details sales volume, unit shipments, and average selling price by technology.

Today WiMAX is ready for broad market adoption. The technology is especially well suited for applications in developing markets, where a competing wired deployment is prohibitively more costly. WiMAX deployments are occurring throughout the world at a rapidly increasing pace. Recent economic uncertainty threatens to slow WiMAX development in regions such as North America, however, there are still areas of the world in which WiMAX market growth continues relatively undisturbed.

The WTRS WiMAX Emerging Technology Report 2009 is an essential tool not only for understanding and making sense of the WiMAX market, but also for aiding any company to take advantage of the opportunities currently available. The report includes an evaluation and analysis of emerging WiMAX technologies including IEEE 802.16e, IEEE 802.16d, and IEEE 802.16m. It tracks the formation of industry alliances, development of standards, analyzes the potential market opportunities for component OEMs, describes initial versus long-range drivers in the market, and offers an extended look at potential and strategic partnership opportunities and industry trends. It contains an in-depth assessment and analysis of available chipsets and evaluates the participating OEMs in this segment. Finally, the report provides a 5-year forecast that details sales volume, unit shipments, and average selling price by technology.
