【摘要】：始自2005年,在台湾政府的M-Taiwan计划主导下,再加上英特尔公司(Intel)的全球WiMAX策略倡导(strategic initiative),台湾的4G产业政策一面倒地朝向WiMAX技术发展,台湾政府冀希打造台湾成为全球独特整合芯片设计、终端设备、基站与应用服务的WiMAX测试平台(testbed);国家通讯传播委员会(NCC)配合行政院所推动的M-Taiwan计划,将政策转化为法律,并于2007年发布《无线宽频接取业务管理规则》,做为开放2.5-2.69GHz频段提供无线宽带接入(WBA)业务之法源依据。然而台湾政府尽使可用之政策工具,全力扶植WiMAX产业的作法,也置台湾的信息与通信技术(ICT)产业于高风险的处境中。2008年全球金融海啸发生后,LTE技术后来居上,开始且广泛地商用化,尤其是美国无线运营商Verizon Wireless与ATT Mobility,分别在2010年及2011年间,于北美地区推出LTE商用服务后,LTE在4G移动通信市场的主流地位,已是无可撼动。本论文以经济学与法学相关理论为基础,从移动通信技术演进、技术扩散、网络外部性,以及路径依赖等观点,研究探讨为何LTE标准能成为4G市场的主流技术；本论文亦从法律与经济学等层面分别检视台湾的4G产业政策,并深入评析M-Taiwan计划的执行,是否带来如台湾政府预期般的经济效益,台湾的ICT产业是否因此得以进行产业升级,以及WiMAX产品出口是否对台湾的整体经济带来直接的推升与助益。此外,因配合M-Taiwan计划所制定的《无线宽频接取业务管理规则》,在实务上对WBA运营商所造成的影响。台湾的4G产业政策,应该是从全球产业竞合的角度,来思考台湾能有怎样的切入点,尤其是电信行业具有典型的网络外部性特征,网络规模越大,消费者的效用也越大,在正回馈的作用下,最终只有一个主流技术能被全球电信市场所接受,形成赢者全拿的局面。台湾是一个以出口为导向的海岛型经济体,政府的产业政策应是以追随主流技术为首要,辅导本地厂商取得关键技术,以开发及生产产品满足客户需求为首要战略目标,在此大前提下,如是因政府扶植产业升级之战略需要,而进行某种新兴通信技术之策略投资,以台湾的产业结构、在国际标准化组织中的实质影响力、以及基本知识产权的拥有程度而论,实不可对单一通信技术押宝选用,否则一旦通信技术选用失误将对台湾整体产业带来巨大且深远的影响。
[Abstract]:Since 2005, under the leadership of the Taiwan government's M-Taiwan program, plus the global WiMAX strategy of Intel's (Intel), which advocates (strategic initiative), Taiwan's 4G industry policy, it has turned upside down towards WiMAX technology. The Taiwan government hopes to build Taiwan into a unique global integrated chip design, terminal equipment, base station and application service WiMAX testing platform, (testbed); National Communications and Communication Commission (NCC), in line with the M-Taiwan program promoted by the Executive Yuan, to translate the policy into law. In 2007, the rules of Service Management for Wireless Broadband access (WWB) were issued, which can be used as the basis for providing wireless broadband access to (WBA) services in the open 2.5-2.69GHz band. However, the Taiwan government has made every effort to support the WiMAX industry by using the available policy tools, and has also placed Taiwan's information and communications technology (ICT) industry in a high-risk situation. At the beginning and widely commercialized, especially in 2010 and 2011, after the introduction of LTE commercial service in North America, the dominant position of LTE in 4G mobile communication market has been unshakable. Based on the theories of economics and law, this paper discusses why LTE standard can become the mainstream technology in 4G market from the viewpoint of mobile communication technology evolution, technology diffusion, network externality and path dependence. This thesis also examines Taiwan's 4G industry policy from the aspects of law and economics, and makes an in-depth analysis of whether the implementation of the M-Taiwan plan will bring economic benefits as expected by the Taiwan government, and whether Taiwan's ICT industry will be upgraded as a result. And whether exports of WiMAX products will directly boost and help Taiwan's economy as a whole. In addition, because of the "Wireless Broadband access Service Management rules" formulated by the M-Taiwan program, the impact on WBA operators in practice. Taiwan's 4G industry policy should consider what kind of breakthrough point Taiwan can have from the angle of global industrial competition. In particular, the telecommunications industry has typical network externalities. The larger the network scale, the greater the consumer's utility. With positive feedback, only one mainstream technology will eventually be accepted by the global telecommunications market, creating a winner-take-all situation. Taiwan is an export-oriented island economy. The government's industrial policy should be to follow mainstream technology as the first priority, to coach local manufacturers to acquire key technologies, and to develop and produce products to meet the needs of customers. Under this major premise, if the government needs to support the strategy of upgrading the industry, it should invest in some new communication technology strategy, and use the industrial structure of Taiwan as the material influence in the International Organization for Standardization. In terms of the degree of ownership of basic intellectual property rights, it is not possible to bet on a single communication technology, otherwise, the failure of the selection of communication technology will have a huge and far-reaching impact on Taiwan's industry as a whole.
