You just read about Alcatel-Lucent. One of the companies whose work it now carries:
Alcatel built Fixed, mobile, optical and enterprise telecom equipment. What became of it?
Alcatel brought Fixed, mobile, optical and enterprise telecom equipment to Telecom. That work was distinctive enough to lead to its merger with Alcatel-Lucent for US$13.4B. The standalone name now passes into the archive — but the team and technology continue inside Alcatel-Lucent today. One of 430 names here whose work outlived the company.
You just read about LTE. Here is what it replaced:
WiMAX (802.16) served 2001–2015. What ultimately replaced it?
WiMAX (802.16) oFDMA-based fixed/mobile broadband: base stations scheduled uplink/downlink slots to subscriber stations across wide channels with carrier-grade QoS - on the losing side of the LTE ecosystem. Its job passed to LTE — but the problem it solved, and the ideas it proved, live on in what replaced it. The standard rests here in the archive. One of 198 technologies here that opened a door and then held it for the next.
