4G Wireless - From 2008 to 2014 (Code 0408)
"4G Wireless - From 2008 to 2014: LTE, UMB, 802.20, WiMAX and HSPA+" is an assessment of the market opportunity for these evolving wireless platforms through 2014. The study juxtaposes the relative strengths and weaknesses of these technologies to create quantitative and qualitative assessments of the role each technology will play in the future. The study examines drivers for network upgrades and the technologies that will be used to improve network performance including MIMO, error correction, OFDMA, scheduling and modulation, among others.

Status, major attributes and expected deployment dates are provided for each 4G technology. Shipments and revenues for LTE, UMB, 802.20, WiMAX and HSPA+ handset/user devices, femtocells and base stations are given. Also provided are WCDMA, HSPA, CDMA and CDMA EV-DO users and devices. Global base station deployments and wireless world subscribers are given through 2014 as are subscribers and service revenues for each 4G technology.

Emerging Wireless (Code: 837-F2)
Emerging Wireless examines opportunities presented by recent and forthcoming wireless platforms, including next generation IP-based wireless technologies, TD-SCDMA and HSDPA. It also looks at the criteria and various definitions of next generation networks (NGN) and fourth generation wireless (4G). Fixed and mobile markets are considered and assessed. Analysis is provided for 802.16, 802.20, HSDPA and subsequent UMTS releases, UMTS TDD, TD-SCDMA, proprietary broadband wireless technologies and FLASH-OFDM. Developments in Japan are also monitored and the future role of technologies such as intelligent antennas, OFDM, software defined radio, and mesh networking is assessed. Subscribers, device shipments, and base station deployments are quantified and detailed and a comparative analysis of these technologies is provided. 

Long Term Evolution 2009: The Role of LTE in Mobile Wireless Networks  (Code 0709)
This study is an evaluation of the market for LTE-based services, devices, selling points and infrastructure on a world-by-region basis. Annual shipments and revenues for LTE handsets, base stations and femtocells are given for each region as are LTE subscribers, revenues, average revenue per unit and LTE femtocell subscribers and revenues.
 

The report considers key business and technical drivers for LTE deployment and it juxtaposes LTE against the main competing technologies of HSPA+ and WiMAX. A regional analysis is also provided covering key operators, LTE deployment schedules, price points and trends. The report seeks to both quantify the opportunity for LTE technology and delineate its progression and technical attributes through 2015.

WiMAX in Latin America (Code 839-F2)

WiMAX: 2008 Through 2013 (Code 844-F2)
This study is an assessment of WiMAX equipment and service opportunities through 2013 within the mobile and traditional fixed wireless segments. Special attention is placed upon the competitive position of mobile WiMAX verses existing and future 3GPP and 3GPP2 mobile platforms (HSPA, EV-DO, LTE and UMB) and the potential impact 802.16e and 802.16m will have upon the mobile market.

Key trends and challenges to success are considered such as use of femtocells, availability of Wave 2 MIMO equipped devices, fixed vs. mobile services, spectrum availability, and potential for WiMAX within laptops and other devices. Analysis is also provided regarding the impact of mobile carriers' expected roll out of mobile WiMAX deployment. 

The role of WiMAX within the traditional DSL/cable modem replacement segment is also carefully studied as this segment constitutes the industry's main revenue source. Also detailed is the expected growth on several traditional WiMAX bands and on new bands utilized for fixed and portable applications.

Mobile and fixed WiMAX base station annual shipments and cumulative deployments are given as are revenues for the yearly shipments with all figures segmented by region. WiMAX subscribers and revenues are quantified and segmented by application and also broken down according to region and radio band. 

BWA subscribers and revenues are also given as are shipments and revenues for WiMAX phones, CPE, modems, and chipsets. WiMAX user device shipments and chipsets are segmented according to operating band, and standard revision (802.16e, "802.16d," and 802.16m). Wave 2 devices, chipsets shipments and revenues are also provided. All forecasts are given through 2013.

The study provides two sets of forecasts for all figures with one set assuming a more limited mobile WiMAX deployment.
