Face Off: 802.11n WiFi vs. WiMAX - An Evaluation of Synergies and Opportunities 2009
The report presents a number of synergistic scenarios with revenue projections. The projections of the synergetic frameworks in the world's 90 more populated countries have been estimated as $30 Billion for equipment and $39 Billion for services. This market is very nascent and is not yet tapped across the world.
