"We expect the mobile WiMax market to grow by a compounded annual growth rate exceeding of 50 percent through 2011," commented Greg Collins Gregory Vincent Collins (born December 8, 1952 in Troy, Michigan) was a former professional American football player who played in three NFL seasons from 1975-1977 for the San Francisco 49ers, the Seattle Seahawks and the Buffalo Bills. , Vice President of Mobile Infrastructure research at Dell'Oro Group. "Despite this strong growth, we predict WiMax will account for less than 10 percent of the mobile infrastructure market in 2011 because of the lack of voice services available in the short term," added Collins. The report also indicates that the WCDMA market is expected to perform exceptionally well by 2011, capturing meaningful market share from rival technologies, GSM and CDMA. The CDMA market is projected to shrink as service providers in key growth regions -- India, Brazil, and Korea -- continue to migrate their subscriber bases to GSM or WCDMA-based services. GSM service providers are also expected to start migrating to WCDMA. "While growth in WCDMA remains tepid tep·id adj. 1. Moderately warm; lukewarm. 2.
