Is Sprint the Champion of Mobile WiMAX Growth? Early Adopters Provide the Service Setting for End User Applications and Substantive Market Growth Drivers
A new report issued by WTRS forecasts that mobile WiMAX will emerge into the early adopter phase of market expansion in the 2008 time frame. Markets for emerging wireless Broadband technologies WiMAX, WiBRO, BPL, and others are updated, contrasted, evaluated and forecast.
Mountain View, CA (PRWEB) July 30, 2007 -- A new study, "WTRS Wireless Broadband (WiMAX) Technology Trends Report, Summer 2007" looks closely at the progress of WiMAX and its prospects. Today there is real market opportunity for WiMAX, in both mobile and fixed applications. While HSPA is making inroads in the mobile market, Sprint appears to be single-handedly pushing WiMAX through the early adopter phase of the market.
"The impetus for a WiMAX market development and expansion is the growth of services in end user applications that utilize the expanded mobility and high bandwidth that WiMAX affords," said Kirsten West, PhD, principal analyst with WTRS. "This is exactly what Sprint is doing, the partnership with Google being one example."
In the meantime, 802.16 WiMAX has found a niche in backhaul networks and as an alternative to landline telephone service for small and medium businesses.
