One of the recent innovations within the communications sector is the 4G wireless broadband services and this is anticipated to transform not just the way we connect online, but likewise how people connect to mobile phones, landlines and television.
The impact of this technology could be compared to the way previous generations of cellular, digital and multi-media systems have transformed the communication industry. At present, two of the competing services for 4G wireless broadband are Worldwide Interoperability Microwave Access (WiMax) and Long Term Evolution (LTE).

WiMax is pushed in this industry by leaders such as Samsung, Motorola, Nokia, Intel, Fujitsu, among others. This service is made available within the country through Clearwire Corporation, which is a conglomeration of a number of companies in which the greater shareholder is actually Sprint Nextel.
The Clearwire Company also functions in various regions of the country using Clear brand. This company has already provided WiMax services to 41 million individuals throughout the country and intends to broaden this figure to as much as 79 million by the ending of 2010. Furthermore, Clearwire currently partners with close to 1800 cable TV and mobile phone providers to offer WiMax services in local areas.
The expansion process is competitive and a certified merchant is required to convince all 3G subscribers to switch to 4G, because of the benefits that 4G provides over the existing 3G technology which is extensively used by consumers. WiMax emerges at practically the same charges as 3G WiFi connections but provide advantages of increased speeds, broader coverage, as well as easy installation.
In contrast to WiFi which has a significantly lower range, Clearwire 4G mobile hotspots covers a field of about 100 yards with the router and this is done from only one base channel. As a result traveling within this range will not cause you to lose connection in contrast to WiFi, which forces you to remain in the same hotspot such as airports, house and coffee shops in order to maintain internet connections.
