The requirements for launching a sustainable
WiMAX business play out in three steps:
Step 1: Cost-effective coverage and capacity – The initial need is to roll out high-speed Internet and VoIP services quickly and economically, with a high standard of QoS and quality of experience (QoE) for end users.
Step 2: Sustainable expansion – In the next phase, as your subscriber base and resulting network traffic grows rapidly, you must maintain this outstanding quality of experience and be able to scale the network at optimized cost.
Step 3: Differentiated services that grow revenue – Finally, your competitive need will be to differentiate your service offer, with personalized mobile multimedia applications that enable you to leverage the broadband connection and move up the value chain. Not only can these steps generate new revenue opportuni- ties, but also allow you to take advantage of new business models.
