Abstract
Description
This report is the most comprehensive and detailed report available on the WiMAX market. Not only does it give the reader an excellent top level overview of the big picture trends in the fixed and mobile WiMAX market but provides an enormous amount of detail on the regulatory, licensing, frequency allocation, market and network rollout situation for 30 countries. For each the market is presented in terms of connections, CPE shipments and base station shipments. CPE shipments are broken down further by type into laptops, outdoor CPE, indoor gateways, add-in cards and handsets. Finally the market for semiconductors used in CPE and base stations is also presented. IMS Research has been producing market reports on the mobile and broadband markets for more than 10 years. This report takes advantage of IMS' wealth of in-house data on the wider fixed broadband and mobile markets.
