Abstract
The soon to be auctioned (January 24, 2008; filing deadline is December 3,
2007) 700 MHz is presents powerful opportunities for service providers using
WiMAX. This new spectrum can be a blessing or a curse for incumbent telecom
network operators as the spectrum has excellent propagation characteristics
and will be used for a variety of new broadband wireless applications that
will compete with 3G cellular. In short, there could be five new 700 MHz
wireless service providers for any point in the United States.
This 150-page presentation was developed through years of experience with
WiMAX implementation and operation coupled with analysis of the potential for
700 MHz. Frank Ohrtman is one of the very few consultants to shepherd
successful, incumbent telephone companies through WiMAX deployments. He brings
a depth of knowledge and insight that is rare and exceptionally timely for
this auction. Among other insights, Frank has a profound vision for the
broadband wireless applications that justify investment and will provide a
compelling business case.
This presentation is a "must have" document for anyone seeking guidance
concerning the potential for 700 MHz and the opportunities and pitfalls
associated with the auction. Purchasers at the Company-wide level for this
publication also receive a one hour of complementary telephone consultation
from the author to allow the organization to ask questions and seek further
guidance.
Ignore 700 MHz WiMAX at your peril !!
