Abstract
Overview
There have been numerous wireless and solar powered video surveillance
solutions on the market over the last few years. The Really WirelessTM
platform changes the equation for wireless video surveillance for a variety of
reasons. This paper evaluates the systems and its practical application as
well as the opportunities for self-sufficient wireless video surveillance via
WiMAX.
Key Findings
It is now possible to deploy "really wireless" remote video surveillance
solutions at remote sites (construction projects, borders) where the power
grid and telephone networks may not exist New IP video surveillance cameras
using H.264 technology provide high resolution imagery using one-fourth the
bandwidth of conventional cameras WiMAX provides an ideal wireless backhaul
solution for those cameras given is qualities for security, quality of service
(QoS), reliability, range and throughput Solar power stations are inexpensive
and easy to deploy and provide reliable power to both the security camera and
the WiMAX subscriber device Video surveillance over WiMAX services in US
markets could be a $3.6 billion market by 2014.
Target Audience
- WiMAX vendors: this will prove to be a very lucrative niche market for
those willing to focus on it and adjust their sales and marketing strategy
accordingly
- Video encoding equipment vendors, including vendors of IP video
surveillance products
- Federal, military, state and local governments (police and fire)
- Security service providers
- Network devices vendors: WiMAX deployments to service a $3.6 billion
market will drive demand for a wide range of network devices Insurance
industry: How many billions of dollars in claims can be avoided via video
surveillance via WiMAX?
