Analyze Current and Pending WiMAX-Related Patent Litigation.DUBLIN, Ireland -- Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/reports/c50889) has announced the addition of Wireless Triple Play (WiMAX) IP & Patent Report to their offering. This Report demonstrates the enormous growth in innovative WiMax activity; last year's Directory covered about 50 new patents and this year's new Report studies over 475! The Report offers analysis of current and pending WiMAX-related patent litigation An action brought in court to enforce a particular right. The act or process of bringing a lawsuit in and of itself; a judicial contest; any dispute. When a person begins a civil lawsuit, the person enters into a process called litigation. , and analysis of IP and Patents with registered IEEE (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, New York, www.ieee.org) A membership organization that includes engineers, scientists and students in electronics and allied fields. Letters of Assurance. Patents are tracked for mobile and fixed WiMAX and related technologies such as WiBRO. Both U.S and worldwide patents are evaluated by company with a focus on fundamental network architecture, enabling software, and RF chipsets. Detail is extensive and the 500 page Report is both comprehensive and accessible, organized with an easy-to-use interface; patents to claims are hyperlinked within the document. In the past this Report has been purchased by OEM's, but also by a diverse Group, including a law firm and even a University Department. A previous version was even purchased by another Market Research firm! This is a unique publication, without a comparable offering from any other firm, but also is a tool allowing purchasers to identify those individuals making significant contributions to the WiMax universe. Using only publicly available information, meticulously gathered from public patent sources, company information, and other research this report is truly an invaluable resource for any company participating in the WiMAX sector, or planning a potential entry into this market.

Completing an intensive study of almost 500 WiMax related patents, we now predict phenomenal increase in WiMax industry, but IP litigation activities will affect market leaders. WiMAX activity has exploded over the last 12 months. It is likely that WiMAX patent filings and grants will more than double over the next two years, achieving Bluetooth's epic proportions. A recent study completed by us found significant growth occuring in valid and useful patent filings which are key to the development of WiMAX standards. WiMAX is a standardized wireless technology designed to offer connectivity in a metropolitan area network (MAN). Prior to the emergence of WiMAX, proprietary technologies such as LMDS (Local Multipoint Distribution Service) A digital wireless transmission system that works in the 28 GHz range in the U.S. and 24-40 GHz overseas. It requires line of sight between transmitter and receiving antenna, which can be from one to four miles apart and MMDS (Multichannel Multipoint Distribution Service or Microwave Multipoint Distribution Service) A digital wireless transmission system that works in the 2.2-2.4 GHz range. occupied this segment, with varying degrees of success due to lack of client device installations, high base station costs, and the general barrier-to-market-entry encumbering all proprietary solutions in a new market. The intellectual property development of WiMAX and its cousin WiBRO is to a large extent dominated by Samsung. One can even go so far as to assume that Samsung opted to commercialize WiBRO in response to an inability to gain momentum behind its network architecture proposals in the IEEE WiMAX groups. Given the inevitable rise of Samsung into a position equal to the Sony of yesteryear, it would be wise for companies to keep a close watch on WiBRO and refraining from dismissing that architecture as a reactionary offshoot. It is quite likely that WiBRO will become the dominant mobile WiMAX standard of the future. Samsung's strength is its ability to smoothly adapt to shifting market conditions with a constant focus on increasing sales, and growing to a dominant market position. Samsung builds on existing standards wherever possible, which is quite different from the now struggling consumer electronics giant, Sony. This Report demonstrates the enormous growth in innovative WiMax activity. The Report offers analysis of current and pending WiMAX-related patent litigation, and analysis of IP and Patents with registered IEEE Letters of Assurance. Patents are tracked for mobile and fixed WiMAX and related technologies such as WiBRO. Both U.S and worldwide patents are evaluated by company with a focus on fundamental network architecture, enabling software, and RF chipsets. Detail is extensive and the 761 page report is both comprehensive and accessible, organized with an easy-to-use interface; patents to claims are hyperlinked within the document. "The Wireless Triple Play industry will be dominated by WiMax in both fixed and mobile forms," according to Principal Analyst Kirsten West. "We are starting to see examples of WiMax used to solve actual business pain and that is the prerequisite for broad adoption in the Wireless Triple Play market."
