Abstract

Telecommunications development is rapid in the world. Telecommunications service markets in Taiwan have been diversified with competitiveness. Even though the 4G, ADSL and Wi-Fi are operated, cable access still could not satisfy the public's increasing broadband access. For enhancing the competitions of services, in 2007, Taiwan’s supervisory authority has decided to open wireless broadband access business that is the Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave Access (WiMAX). However, the development of WiMAX in Taiwan had been delayed. The research would find and analyze those impact factors. The study took the methods of Multiple Criteria Decision Making (MCDM) -- a hybrid MADM model combining the Decision Making Trial and Evaluation Laboratory (DEMATEL). The DEMATEL is based on the Analytic Network Process (DANP) with VIKOR. This systematic assessment would obtain the factors’ rank, and then analyze those impact factors. The government supervision should be the first one of the most important factors. And then, the factors would be considering for business management and profit. Through the VIKOR, the largest gap from aspired level would be business management. However, the item would be pushed by government supervision level. So, the government supervision level should be the first one to improve.
