Photo Release -- Clearwire Releases Research Reports from IDC and ABI Highlighting Spectrum Holdings and TDD-LTE Ecosystem
BELLEVUE, Wash., Oct. 25, 2012 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Clearwire (Nasdaq:CLWR), a leading provider of 4G mobile broadband services in the U.S., today made available two commissioned research studies that outline the growing prominence of the global TDD-LTE ecosystem and an analysis of Clearwire's vast spectrum holdings. A photo accompanying this release is available at http://www.globenewswire.com/newsroom/prs/?pkgid=15424 "Given the market's resurgent interest in understanding both our TDD LTE technology choice and our spectrum holdings, we're sharing the independent findings from these recently commissioned research reports today," said John Saw, CTO of Clearwire. "The IDC and ABI reports highlight the benefits and economies of scale of TDD-LTE, our 2.5GHz to 2.6GHz frequency band (Band 41), and Clearwire's unmatched spectrum resources." The first report is titled "Validating the Market for TDD LTE in the U.S. Marketplace" by John Byrne, Research Director for Wireless Infrastructure at IDC. The second report is titled "LTE TDD - Making the Most of 4G" by Phil Solis, Research Director, Devices, Content & Applications; and Jake Saunders, Vice President and Practice Director, Core Forecasting at ABI Research. Complementary copies of both reports are available at Clearwire's newsroom at http://www.clearwire.com/newsroom. As the IDC report notes, "Clearwire is able to operate on a single bandwidth in excess of 130 MHz on average, including approximately 160 MHz on average in top 100 markets where capacity constraints are the most likely to emerge. As a result, Clearwire has the capability to generate much greater capacity and better network performance by virtue of a significantly fatter pipe vis-à-vis competitors." The TDD-LTE ecosystem continues to grow with commercial or planned deployments in major population centers, including Japan, China, India, the European Union and Clearwire's deployment in the United States. The ABI Research report "estimates that global TDD LTE coverage will have addressable population coverage of 4.4 billion by 2014 if network rollouts in key countries are aggressive." The report also outlines the economies of scale for the device ecosystem and projects that "every LTE device will support both TDD and FDD technologies," given their commonality. The reports explore different topic areas, such as:
