It’s Make Or Break For WiMAX

This year will be decisive in the
development of WiMAX, which experienced major setbacks in 2007, says
Analysys, the global advisor in Telecom, IT and media, at the GSMA
Mobile World Congress in Barcelona (11-14 February).

WiMAX (Worldwide interoperability for Microwave Access) is a wireless
broadband technology based on the IEEE 802.16 family of standards. It
was originally designed as a last-mile fixed wireless broadband access
technology, but has also became a mobile broadband specification.
Theoretically, WiMAX offers longer ranges, increased throughput, QoS and
interoperability at relatively low cost.

“WiMAX suffered a major setback when the partnership between US operator
Sprint Nextel, one of the technology’s strongest advocates, and
Clearwire fell apart in November,” says Andrew Parkin-White, Principal
Analyst at Analysys, and co-author of Mobile Market Perspectives 2008 (A
summary of recent research into the evolving mobile market).

“Several WiMAX networks were launched in developing markets in 2007, but
most were small in scale and, given the low disposable income in these
countries, operators will need to revise their business models if the
cost of mobile WiMAX CPE continues to be high.”

Research also suggests other technologies may meet the needs of the MNO
(Mobile Network Operator) and its customers better than WiMAX.

“LTE looks to be more suitable for developed mobile markets, but success
depends on its ability to achieve its targets for network performance at
an appropriate price and within the right timescale,” says Parkin-White.

An alternative approach may well threaten conventional thinking on 3G
network enhancements: the availability of low-cost fixed broadband, the
advent of femtocells (indoor base stations) and the adoption of
dedicated broadcasting networks could call into question the need for
the envisaged network enhancement strategy.

“Our research, combined with demand and capacity modelling, has shown
that an approach that combines these alternatives with HSPA+ may meet
the capacity needs of a wide range of operators. If MNOs start to
develop a fundamentally different view on their strategy for technology
evolution, vendors will have to totally rethink their approach to the
market in 2008. Either way, the future for WiMAX does not look healthy,”
explains Parkin-White.
