Description
- LTE,
LTE-Advanced & 5G
Ecosystem
As
a natural upgrade path for carriers from the previously detached GSM,
CDMA and TD-SCDMA ecosystems, LTE has emerged as the first truly
global mobile communications standard. Commonly marketed as the “4G”
standard, LTE promises to provide higher data rates and lower latency
at a much lower Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) than 3G technologies.
The
TCO and performance is further enhanced by deployment of small cells
and the LTE-Advanced standard. LTE-Advanced or simply LTE-A is a
further enhancement to LTE which improves performance and data rates
using features such as the aggregation of carriers, interference
management and advanced antenna techniques.
With
over 265 fully commercial network launches, LTE adoption has
considerably gained momentum throughout the globe, and a number of
carriers have already deployed LTE-A features such as carrier
aggregation. SNS Research estimates that LTE service revenues will
account for $103 Billion in 2014. Revenues are further expected to
grow at a CAGR of 40% over the next 6 years.

Driven
by these revenue prospects, operators continue to aggressively invest
in LTE infrastructure, encompassing macrocell base stations (eNBs),
small cells and EPC/mobile core equipment. LTE infrastructure
spending is expected to account for nearly $15 Billion by the end of
2014.
While
LTE and LTE-A deployments are still underway, wireless carriers and
vendors have already embarked on R&D projects to develop 5G
standards, which offer even higher data rates than LTE-A. SNS
Research predicts that fully commercial 5G services will be rolled
out by the end of 2020.
The
“LTE, LTE-Advanced & 5G Ecosystem: 2014 – 2020 –
Infrastructure, Devices, Subscriptions & Operator Revenue”
report presents an in-depth assessment of the LTE, LTE-A and emerging
5G ecosystem including key market drivers, challenges, operator
revenue potential, infrastructure/device deployment commitments,
future roadmap, value chain, vendor market share and strategies. The
report also presents revenue and shipment market size and forecasts
for both infrastructure and devices, along with subscription and
service revenue projections for the LTE market as a whole, as well as
separate projections for the TD-LTE and LTE FDD sub-markets from 2014
through to 2020. Historical figures are also presented for 2010,
2011, 2012 and 2013.
The
report comes with an associated Excel datasheet suite covering
quantitative data from all numeric forecasts presented in the report.
