Falls Church, Virginia ─The mobile wireless networks revenue will grow from $60.7 billion in 2004 to 100.1 billion in 2011, says a report from market researcher Telecom Trends International, Inc. The report titled, “Mobile Wireless Networks: To 3G and Beyond,” says the market will grow at a compound annual growth rate of 7.4 percent over a seven year period.

 

After expanding at a staggering rate of 23.9 percent in 2004, the mobile wireless market will experience healthy, although relatively modest, growth of 9.3 percent in 2005, growing from $60.7 billion in 2004 to $66.3 billion in 2005, the report said. A major focus of the report is migration of current generation networks to 3G and 4G.

 

Falling equipment prices are spurring deployments in those regions of the world that have lacked mobile access, said Naqi A. Jaffery, President and Chief Analyst, Telecom Trends International. At the same time, the need for higher speeds is driving the rapid deployment of 3G networks in industrialized nations, he said.

 

Along with the transition of the radio interface to higher speeds, says the report, the core network is being enhanced with deployments of IP Multimedia Subsystem (IMS). Increasingly, multi-access networks will emerge, considerably enhancing end-user experience, it said.

 

The dominant industry trends, according to the report, include standardization of base station interfaces, increasing migration of manufacturing operations to contract manufacturers, and the growing role of vendors in managing operator networks.

 

According to the report, the market is witnessing the emergence of smaller vendors, who were traditionally confined to regional markets, on the global scene. These include vendors from Japan, Korea, and China who are staking out a claim to leadership in next-generation networks. The report provides revenue information on top thirteen global network vendors.

 

According to the report, Tier 1 vendors – Ericsson, Nokia, and Siemens  –  garnered 49 percent of the revenue in 2004. Tier 2 vendors – Motorola, Lucent, Nortel, and Alcatel – obtained 33 percent of the revenue. Other vendors who got the remaining 18 percent of the revenue include NEC, Fujitsu, Samsung, LG, Huawei, and ZTE.

 

The report provides forecasts for all regions of the world broken down as follows: Western Europe, Eastern Europe, Middle East, Africa, Asia-Pacific, China, North America, and Latin America. The report provides forecasts for all the major technologies. The report also provides forecasts for all three components of a mobile wireless network – access, core, and services.

 

The report provides a global overview of mobile wireless infrastructure market. It is based on authoritative analysis by experts who are well versed in market and technology developments in mobile wireless infrastructure.
