October 19, 2007, the International Telecommunication Union (ITU) approved WiMAX become an official member of the IMT-2000 family of 3G standard, side by side with WCDMA, CDMA2000, TD-SCDMA, the world's fourth largest 3G standard. WiMAX technology development has attracted the attention of many industry, government officials, academics, while the traditional telecommunications industry is facing a saturated market, price competition and falling profits, so looking for a new business to open up new markets is imminent. Performance and service advantages, WiMAX in China is bound to be a very good opportunity. However, due to the impact of national policies, the maturity of the industry chain related factors WiMAX network in the Chinese market opportunities and future trends is uncertain. WiMAX network deployment opportunities and development strategies in the Chinese market in China's telecommunications industry is once again facing a re-shuffle today become a hot topic of concern for the entire communications industry. In this thesis, the information / data collection methods to collect information using the PEST analysis, SWOT analysis and qualitative analysis, a comparative study of the development status of the WiMAX network at home and abroad, concerned about the opportunities in the domestic market for the first time WiMAX China's market position referred to the level of the study. By the method of combining qualitative analysis and quantitative analysis, qualitative analysis of WiMAX networks in China's development environment, industrial chain maturity at the same time, the establishment of the WiMAX market opportunity assessment model, combined with expert evaluation and scoring of Fuzzy Analytic Hierarchy Process quantitative research the pros and cons of WiMAX market opportunities in China. Finally, by analyzing the WiMAX network application deployment in China and domestic operators, vendors of WiMAX strategy, which raised the WiMAX network in China's development strategy recommendations for government departments, operators and manufacturers reference. The main conclusions of this paper: WiMAX network has its natural cost and mobility advantages, however, due to national policies on the protection of other 3G technology and its own existence, such as the maturity of the industry chain, the market opportunity in China is relatively bleak present, WiMAX network can not become a mainstream technology of China's telecommunications market in the short term. WiMAX network in China's development should be another way, targeted at non-mainstream technologies complement each other and 3G, take the right amount of compromise in terms of performance and price, just to have a certain competitiveness.
