WiMAX 2005 - Capabilities, Costs, Time Scales, Standards and Alternative Solutions
 

Date: 11th & 12th May 2005
Venue: Marriott Kensington, London. UK

This conference will cover the significance and potential impact of WiMAX as well as the obstacles in its way. Over the two days, you will be able to engage in the debate on how best to integrate WiMAX and alternative broadband services into your company's strategy, by adopting innovative marketing solutions and revenue enhancing models.

WiMAX is one of the most hyped technologies in history, but until both products and models emerge, it is unclear how justified the hype is. Therefore, the competing and alternative technologies will also be presented at the event, such as Flarion’s FLASH-OFDM® mobile broadband system;
IP Wireless’ UMTS TDD technology and Texas Instrument’s discussion on whether wired broadband is complementary to WiMAX.
