Future of Wi-Fi in India

The Wi-Fi Alliance, in partnership with Tonse Telecom, released a 60-page report "The Future for Wi-Fi in India: Opportunities and Challenges," outlining the emerging Wi-Fi ecosystem in India. The group predicts that as laptop adoption and broadband penetration increase, Wi-Fi will experience the wide adoption already seen in other markets.
Key findings in the paper include:
>>As broadband wireless access grows, the WLAN network gear sector will exceed $275 million by 2012 (not including embedded chips), up from the current $23.1 million.
>>The combined Wi-Fi market (described as consisting of WLAN networking gear, systems integration and professional services but not including embedded devices and laptops) is expected to exceed $744 million by 2012 (CAGR of more than 61 percent).
>>Hybrid Wi-Fi and WiMAX deployments are bringing broadband connectivity to previously unconnected rural and urban areas alike.
>>Dual-mode Wi-Fi /cellular handsets show promise for bringing higher-throughput Internet connectivity to numerous Indian citizens who don't own computers.
