Wireless Broadband Services: The 4G Cellular Industry (Part Three of Three)
Mind Commerce LLC, Dec 2006, Pages: 25
The cellular industry invested over $13.7 billion (USD) in spectrum auctions. The cellular companies will need to recoup the investment, probably through fees charged to the public. Today's cost for a cellular service with an average data communications service of 130 Kbps is about $80 a month. To be competitive with the advances in WiMAX and Wi-Fi, the fee for 4G services will need to be lower than the cellular companies expect. A better strategy for 4G operators would be to offer lower speeds with more capacity to handle more users as a bargain thereby fully loading the networks with subscribers. Usage based offerings with specific services, offering niche services at moderate speeds, may turn out to be the most effective and profitable method to roll-out 4G.
This publication is the third in a series of research that address the market place, the business drivers and the competition of the three major broadband wireless technologies with part one, Broadband Wireless: WiMax Industry, part two Broadband Wireless WiFi Industry and this report covering 4G cellular. Both of these Reports can also be found on our Website. If you have any queries in relation to special, offers for purchase of all three reports please use our enquiry system.
