This report highlights cellular subscriptions, mobile network traffic, and mobile operator revenues and CAPEX trends for the worldwide mobile cellular market by technology and region. Regional market forecasting is done for each of the seven major geographical regions.
The Network Technology and Market Tracker integrates ABI Research’s four market data reports that were previously published as MD-MOPB, MD-MTMT, MD-CAPEX, and MD-DBOP. In the previous iteration, MD-SUB alone was integrated into MD-NWMT-101 and changes were made to align the tracker with the key market trends defining mobile operator services. To that end, legacy technologies were included in the Other category; GSM, CDMA2000 1X, and HSPA technologies were consolidated into their primary technology categories; and Gigabit LTE subscriptions forecast were added for each region. In this iteration 5G subscriptions have been added to cellular subscriptions forecast. Also included are 5G network traffic forecasts, 5G spectrum auctions, and 5G network trials data.
