While it cannot be said that LTE is going to be a mature mobile network for up to a few years, that more aggressive envelop of capabilities is not what WiMAX delivers today. WiMAX is a mature network in delivering many aspects of what operators may want but both WiMAX and LTE are continuing to evolve at a rapid pace. Increased cell-edge and bandwidth performance, higher order MIMO, competitive mobile devices... are continuing to evolve in the standards and commercial offerings such that maturity of the emerging field is not fully baked into the pie. -Robert Syputa Maravedis @YOUNG

WiMAX I agree is proven and will be the first choice of Operators who want to make an early entry and capture market after all they are paying high spectrum charges and need quick ROI.. Equipment Vendors who have both technologies ( 802.16 and TD-LTE) & aggressive in my opinion will emerge winners since can promise upgrades or overlay networks to capture more contracts agree with BP that it will not be ready before Q12011.

The next step beyond what you describe in the article are true compact base stations that integrate the base band and RF into a single all-outdoor box, and are no larger than a typical remote radio head. Such a strategy allows maximal deployment flexibility and makes it possible to deploy on non-traditional mounting assets such as utility poles and walls. My company PureWave Networks already offers such solutions today.
