Wireless Industry

Thirty years ago, the United States Federal Communications Commission (FCC) gave birth to the mobile wireless industry by granting two licenses in each cellular geographic market across the United States. In the next three decades the FCC continually provided more access to the electromagnetic spectrum which is a critical input for the provision of mobile wireless communications services to, in part, promote a more competitive market structure in the mobile wireless industry. One objective of this chapter is to describe and analyze the trends in the overall competitiveness of the mobile wireless market during this time by utilizing a modified Porter competitive forces framework. This analysis will be supplemented with an analysis of the most recent proposed merger in the mobile wireless industry – between AT&T and T-Mobile. The proposed merger is an example of a continuing trend in the industry, consolidation of national mobile wireless carriers. This chapter will analyze the impact of proposed merger on the ability of the remaining mobile wireless carriers to constrain the market power of the national wireless carriers in the industry. Specifically, the arguments for and against the merger by major stakeholders are reviewed. There are signs that the mobile wireless industry may return to a duopoly structure. Recommendations regarding the horizontal merger will be offered.
