Next-Generation Mobile Broadband Technologies to Close the Gap With Fixed Broadband
Mobile operators are expected to fully maximise their high-speed packet access (HSPA) deployments before eventually deploying 3G long-term evolution (LTE). Many operators will leapfrog from HSPA to 3G LTE, as the window of opportunity for HSPA Evolved is insignificant when compared to 3G LTE. more

Non-Handset Devices to Account for $90 Billion in Operator Revenues by 2013
While the mobile phone is by far the most common device used to connect to mobile networks, the number of non-handset mobile devices is set to grow dramatically - reports ARCchart. These category of products, termed 'Mobile Internet Peripherals and Devices' encompass products such as data cards, laptops, ultra-mobile PCs, game consoles, eBooks, digital signs, ATMs and host of other M2M applications. Sitting within all these devices is a wireless data module providing a connection to a wide-area network. more

If spectrum auctions and commercial Mobile WiMAX rollouts (compliant to Wave 2 Phase 2 certification) do not take place by 2008, the market scope for Mobile WiMAX on a global basis will be insignificant - claims Frost & Sullivan. The research firm also observes that the technology is facing a range of challenges that are likely to make it unfeasible as a mobile "access" technology. more
