The emerging market economies are looked upon as the next engines for growth in the wireless infrastructure sector. With developed regions of North America, Western Europe and East Asia maturing as 3G networks move towards 4G, the emerging market economies are playing catch-up, improving existing 2G coverage and in some cases beginning to deploy 3G networks. 4G technologies such as LTE and WiMAX could have a bigger role to play than expected in these emerging markets, as wired broadband infrastructure finds it difficult to compete. Wireless vendors see emerging markets as a top priority, jostling for contract wins.

This study covers base station deployment trends, base station spending and contract activity of wireless infrastructure vendors in key emerging market countries and regions across the world.
