The Global Market for Telecoms Towers 2014 - 2020
M2 - Thu Sep 18, 8:24AM CDT
Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/hv24nw/the_global_market) has announced the addition of the "The Global Market for Telecoms Towers 2014 - 2020 Edition 2" report to their offering. It is estimated that there are 4 million telecoms towers installed in the world, growing at a cagr of 4.1% to 2020. In 2014 the market for tower construction is estimated at $20.3 billion globally Globally, the mobile industry has seven billion users (subscriptions), generating annual service revenues approaching $1,000 billion each year. 74% of users are in emerging markets. China and India together account for almost one-third of all users (18% and 14% respectively), emerging Asia another 15%, Africa 11%, South America 10% and the Middle East 5%. But the market for the infrastructure does not track the growth in mobile services. Significant developments in terms of tower sharing and independent ownership make the tower market much more complex. Towers constitute almost 50% of the total capital expenditure for an operator, so the cost of towers involves tying up large amounts of capital in costly infrastructure and is a significant drag on operating liquidity. As many MNOs face declining revenues they have sought to free up the capital tied into infrastructure and the towerco was born. In turn the concept of asset sharing has become another key trend in the industry. By 2020 the total installed base will have risen from 4 million towers to 5 million towers. But the rate of growth, and the structure of the industry that is developing, varies by region. Taking into account the industry structure and trends in tower sharing, we forecast double digit growth in Sub-Saharan Africa and Latin America, but the volume regional market will be Asia, with some hotspots evident. It is therefore concluded that companies seeking to grow rapidly must choose their battlegrounds carefully; as a consequence of a lumpy market we envisage significant activity in terms of mergers and acquisitions in the sector in coming years. The current hotspot for independent tower ownership (then leased back to MNOs) is sub-Saharan Africa, where some $30 billion in infrastructure transactions are currently under review. The towerco industry is also established in North America and Europe, and the first steps are being made in China with the development of a joint venture between China Telecom, China Mobile and China Unicorn. In Africa, forecasts suggest that 30% of all telecoms towers could be independently operated by 2020. Currently, we estimate that 18% of all telecoms towers globally are independently operated.

Global LTE Market (TDD, FDD, LTE Advance) - Global Forecasts and Opportunities, 2020
M2 - Wed Aug 27, 2:46AM CDT
Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/pj9758/global_lte_market) has announced the addition of the "Global LTE Market (TDD, FDD, LTE Advance) - Global Opportunity Analysis and Forecast - 2012-2020" report to their offering. The LTE market is to soar as high as $997 billion by 2020, experiencing a CAGR of 58.2% during 2013-2020. Asia Pacific is forecast to surpass other geographical markets by 2020 with approximately 40% of the global LTE market. Current revenue (2013) from LTE market in Asia Pacific accounts to $2.8 billion and is expected to reach a value of $390 billion by 2020. Furthermore, this would be the fastest growing market throughout the globe, experiencing a CAGR of 71.5%. during 2013-2020. Telecom companies have already gained good number of 4G LTE subscribers in the developed countries. On the other hand, in the present scenario, Asia Pacific is still far behind North America in terms of subscriber strength. However, increasing customer awareness regarding LTE features and benefits and radical improvement in QoS will shoot-up the LTE adoption in the region. Rising sales of advanced gadgets, supporting 4G networks, is further intensifying the need for LTE in the Asia Pacific and other developing regions. Apart from the common subscribers, defense systems, public safety etc. are also evolving as strong applications of LTE. Rising demand in each of these segments is assisting the overall growth of the market. Increased need for high data rate, increased demand in public sector due to efficiency of LTE in speedy communication and need for high quality services are among the primary factors driving the growth of the market. LTE is a noble technology that demands certain technological advancements in the mobile infrastructure. Mobile operators therefore need increased bandwidth and resilient network connectivity to accommodate next generation LTE networks. Telecom companies still need to work on their network stability in all regions to provide smooth and continuous service even when the customer is under roaming (within the country or abroad). Limited spectrum at different locations, states and countries is also a major challenge for the LTE service providers. Frequency division duplex (LTE FDD), Time division duplex (LTE TDD), and LTE Advance are the three prime technologies currently being used. Out of these three technologies, LTE TDD is expected to be the highest revenue-generating segment, growing at a CAGR of 58.7% during the analysis period. Quick and cost effective solutions of LTE TDD over LTE FDD are the primary reasons for this market shift. However, LTE Advance is the fastest growing market during the analysis period due to its ability to provide higher bitrates. The primary application segments of LTE are M2M and connected device, public safety LTE, voice-over LTE (VoLTE), video on demand (VoD), defense and security and such others. Browsing, surveillance and large enterprise collectively will grow at the fastest rate during the analysis period. KEY MARKET SEGMENTS LTE Market By Technology - LTE FDD - LTE TDD - LTE Advance LTE Market By Application - M2M and Connected Device - Public Safety LTE - VoLTE - Surveillance, browsing and large enterprise - Video on Demand - Defense and Security Companies Mentioned - Alcatel Lucent - AT&T Inc - Bharti Airtel Ltd. - China Mobile Ltd. - Huawei Technologies Co.
