WiMAX: The Business Case for Fixed Wireless Access in Emerging Markets

Overview Wireless access networks based on WiMAX-compliant solutions provide an opportunity for operators to participate in the high growth opportunities that exist in emerging markets. Traditional wire-line infrastructure in these countries is either non-existent or only accessible to a small segment of the population. WiMAX-based access networks will enable local operators to cost-effectively reach millions of new potential customers and provide them with traditional voice and broadband data services that up to now have been denied. Although these markets have all the attributes required for a winning business case, they are not without challenges. This paper is intended to provide some insights as to what it takes for a profitable WiMAX deployment strategy and to provide some typical deployment examples.
