Samsung Telecommunications America seem to be doing pretty well and have decided that the Mobile Summit would be a perfect moment to celebrate their 10th year anniversary and the $4 billion in revenue milestone. Samsung's subsidiary has also celebrated 100 million units being sold in the United States and plans to launch 60 new models this year.

Having proved their capability in the development of GSM/GPRS/EDGE, as well as 3G CDMA networks, being the first to commercialize CDMA, CDMA2000 and CDMA2000 1xEV-DO, in Samsung's opinion WiMAX is the future of wireless networks.

"4G is WiMAX. We're very clear about that," said Philip Garrison, mobile strategist for Samsung Telecommunications America (STA).

Samsung also signed a deal with Sprint Nextel on the 6th of August in order to supply the operator with equipment needed for its U.S. WIMAX network, with Intel and Motorola as co-signatories on the same deal, therefore proving their commitment to mobile WiMAX.

The partnership is also supported by 380 companies in the WiMAX forum and the benefits are hard to ignore when it comes to mobile WiMAX, which provides consumers with high-speed data services, broadcast capacity of 2MBps per user, low latency and vehicular mobility at up to 75mph.

Carriers are also better of with WiMAX , the network can be configured at a lower cost compared to other technologies, the operating expenses and the cost per megabit are significantly lower.

While Samsung sees WiMAX as the future, several wireless interfaces such as EVDO Rev A, HSPDA, Mobile TV and satellite broadcasts will also most likely become more popular in the near future.
