An Analysis of the Developments within WLAN and How It Has Become Integrated into the Mobile Network.


DUBLIN Dublin, city, Republic of Ireland
Dublin, Irish Baile Átha Cliath, county borough (1991 pop. 915,516), Leinster, capital of the Republic of Ireland, on Dublin Bay at the mouth of the Liffey River.
, Ireland -- Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/reports/c29586 ) has announced the addition of the Pyramid pyramid, structure
pyramid. The true pyramid exists only in Egypt, though the term has also been applied to similar structures in other countries. Egyptian pyramids are square in plan and their triangular sides, which directly face the points of the
 Research report: WLAN-Cellular Convergence: the Carrier Business Case For WLAN See wireless LAN.

WLAN - wireless local area network
, UMA (1) (Unlicensed Mobile Access) See GAN.

 and VoWLAN to their offering.

This 80-page report analyzes and forecasts the evolution of WLAN and its integration into the mobile network, the traditional WLAN/Cellular business model as put forward by carriers such as T-Mobile, and the relevance of WLAN in an HSDPA/EVDO world. Using carrier case studies and global forecasts of WLAN, VoWLAN and WIMAX, the report provides key insights on mobile carrier approach to WLAN-Cellular convergence, as well as the strategic implications of the emergence in the mobile environment of such key players as Skype. This report also includes over 25 exhibits.

The study will be supplemented by regional reports for North America North America, third largest continent (1990 est. pop. 365,000,000), c.9,400,000 sq mi (24,346,000 sq km), the northern of the two continents of the Western Hemisphere. , Asia Pacific, Europe and Latin America Latin America, the Spanish-speaking, Portuguese-speaking, and French-speaking countries (except Canada) of North America, South America, Central America, and the West Indies. . These reports will provide in-depth analysis of WLAN adoption, benchmark WiFi-cellular bundling strategies and examine carrier case studies in all major markets globally."
