Analysis of the dynamic broadband technology competition

Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to investigate the effect of inter-platform competition on the adoption of different broadband technologies (i.e. among xDSL, fibre-optic technologies, and hybrid fibre coaxial (HFC)), examine the direction of the effect, and identify potential technology convergence and the speed of technology innovation. Design/methodology/approach – It uses Lotka-Volterra equation to determine the dynamic competition...
