Analysis > WiMAX & 4G 
The run-up to 3G reflected the anxieties of many in the
telecoms sector: the nervous shuffling through 2.5G before the plunge was
taken, the questioning over suitable applications.
Much less complicated is 4G,
the technology of wireless broadband. Several companies have expressed their intention to pioneer 4G. But some analysts are not
impressed, believing technologies such as WiMax can deliver the same results for much less cost.
But is WiMax the pathway to 4G or a 3.5G cul-de-sac? Its supporters are optimistic, as a recent international demonstration of interoperability by more than 20 companies showed. Developing Telecoms is taking a look at progress in these overlapping fields with some pioneering case-studies and profiles of leading companies. And we will be looking at the impact ond value of these technologies to the developing world.

 WiMAX, 4G, Markets,
Prospects, Wireless broadband, Global: For some, WiMAX offers a unique proposition: the ability to
provide a wide-area IP network based on open standards. Others, however, are
sceptical when it comes to developing markets. Analysys Consulting can not be
accused of this; they believe there are signs of market dynamics that could yet
ensure a healthy future for WiMAX. But the key market driver Analysys identify could be more personal than many operators expect...
