Abstract
Overview:
WiFi vs. WiMAX: Which one will win the technology, application, and services
model wars? No research to date has evaluated the synergetic frameworks of
WiMAX (fixed and mobile), and WiFi (802.11n, 802.11e and 802.11i).
The report presents a number of synergistic scenarios with revenue
projections. The projections of the synergetic frameworks in the world' s 90
more populated countries have been estimated as $30 Billion for equipment and
$39 Billion for services. This market is very nascent and is not yet tapped
across the world.
The scenarios presented are applicable to metropolitan fixed broadband
networks integrating public places, home networks in rural areas with sparse
population densities, fixed broadband services for housing clusters in remote
counties, campus wireless mobility networks, metropolitan mobile broadband
networks, asset management networks (using RFID), campus & metropolitan GIS
networks, campus & metropolitan triangulation networks (indoor GPS), and
application of the frameworks in oil & gas pipeline management networks.
These scenarios have been vetted by 135 seasoned networking professionals with
a minimum of eight years of experience in service providers, systems
integration companies and end user industries (SMEs and corporations).
