The incumbent carriers may be considering Long Term Evolution (LTE)<\/a> as their post-3G wireless broadband technology, but new research from Telegeography shows<\/a> that WiMAX<\/a> is no slouch and that deployments of the other wireless broadband technology are on the rise. According to their research, there are about 600 WiMAX networks either live or in planning-deployment stages. Last time we checked, there were about 519 wireless deployments around the planet using WiMAX.<\/a><\/p>\n In comparison, only around 300 cellular networks have been upgraded with HSPA technology (including T-Mobile USA’s network<\/a>) and fewer than 70 operators have committed to deploying LTE equipment. That should change in 2010 and beyond as we start to see large carriers such as Verizon and AT&T start to roll out their LTE-based wireless broadband networks.<\/p>\n But some analysts believe that all is not over for WiMAX<\/a>. As we have mentioned in the past, WiMAX is finding its feet in emerging markets<\/a> and that is why it makes sense that Asia, South Americas and Africa are the top regions when it comes to WiMAX deployments.<\/p>\n The incumbent carriers may be considering Long Term Evolution (LTE) as their post-3G wireless broadband technology, but new research from Telegeography shows that WiMAX is no slouch and that deployments of the other wireless broadband technology are on the rise.
