WiMAX 2008 Through 2013: An Evolution to 802.16m

This study is an assessment of WiMAX equipment and service opportunities through 2013 within the mobile and traditional fixed wireless segments. Special attention is placed upon the competitive position of mobile WiMAX verses existing and future 3GPP and 3GPP2 mobile platforms (HSPA , EV-DO, LTE and UMB) and the potential impact 802.16e and 802.16m will have upon the mobile market.

Key trends and challenges to success are considered such as use of femtocells, availability of Wave 2 MIMO equipped devices, fixed vs. mobile services, spectrum availability, and potential for WiMAX within laptops and other devices. Analysis is also provided regarding the impact of mobile carriers’ expected roll out of mobile WiMAX deployment.

The role of WiMAX within the traditional DSL/cable modem replacement segment is also carefully studied as this segment constitutes the industry’s main revenue source and also detailed is the expected growth on several traditional WiMAX bands and on new bands utilized for fixed and portable applications.

Mobile and fixed WiMAX base station annual deployments are given, as are cumulative deployments and revenues, all segmented by region. WiMAX subscribers and revenues are quantified and segmented by application and also broken down according to region and radio band.

BWA subscribers and revenues are also given as are shipments and revenues for WiMAX phones, CPE, modems, and chipsets. WiMAX user device shipments and chipsets are segmented according to operating band, and standard revision (802.16e, “802.16d,” and 802.16m). Wave 2 devices and chipsets shipments and revenues are also provided. All forecasts are given through 2013.

The study provides two sets of forecasts for all figures with one set assuming a more limited mobile WiMAX deployment.

Executive Summary: 1.1 Words on the WiMAX Hype, both Positive and Negative; 1.2 Application Mix Unchanged; 1.3 Fixed Wireless Remains Baseline; 1.4 WiMAX and the Role of Pre-Certified Equipment; 1.5 Version M Could Hold the Key to Mobility; 1.6 Proprietary BWA Phased out; 1.7 WiMAX Equipment Sales are Vibrant; 1.8 Support Community is Substantial; 1.9 Wave 2 802.16e Certification; 1.10 Mobile Deployment Looms; 1.11 Performance Questions Remain; 1.12 Substantial Market Potential Without Mobility; 1.13 Early or Late?; 1.14 Spectrum Remains in Short Supply; 1.15 The Main WiMAX Advantage; 1.16 Mobile Opportunities
