The 4G future - WiMAX and LTEPureWave Networks believes that WiMAX and LTE will continue to exist side-by-side, as each technology best addresses the needs of specific market segments. While many incumbent wireless carriers will adopt LTE, many emerging and innovative carriers will opt for Mobile WiMAX. Mobile WiMAX is also expected to prevail in many vertical markets and applications, such as municipal networks, utility smart grid networks, campus environments and other private networks.
The two standards will allow customers to choose the technology that is most appropriate for them, based on their commercial needs and on the wireless spectrum that is available to them.
With a unique technology and market advantages (zero foot print, advanced beam forming technology, low power consumption etc.) that are applicable to the WiMAX and LTE standards, PureWave Networks is poised to be a key player in both markets.
