WiMAX Strategic Capex Model for Fixed Subscribers

Interested in WiMAX? Ready to set up a network? You may have some questions.

  • How much infrastructure, or base station equipment, will you need?
  • What is the maximum area that you can cover?
  • How many subscribers can you support?
  • What can you expect from the uptake of subscribers?
  • What will happen when you change the maximum data rate?
  • What will be the impact of the amount of spectrum, or a change in the frequency?

The WIMAX Strategic Capital Expenditures (CapEx) Model can answer all of these questions and more for operators interested in suburban in-building of fixed subscribers. It allows users to input various parameters over a ten-year cycle and see immediate results.

The WiMAX Strategic CapEx Model includes the following parameters...

  • Suburban coverage area
  • Rate of coverage
  • In-building suburban subscriber numbers
  • Uptake (or penetration) rate
  • Maximum data rate
  • Revenue
  • Frequency of operation
  • Amount of bandwidth

...and produces the following results:

  • Projected supported traffic
  • Potential revenue
  • Required funding for capital equipment
  • Cash flow over a ten-year cycle
  • The "break even" point, at which cash flow shifts from negative to positive
  • Net present value of cash flow, calculated from interest rates

Please note: The WiMAX Strategic CapEx Model is not a complete business model, as it captures only some of the most important high-level capital equipment expenditures.

I found the "Strategic Capex Model" to be a great tool for determining the amount of required equipment and capital under a host of different network scenarios.
