FinancialBuzz.com News Commentary
NEW YORK, Feb. 19, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- There is a growing competition within the telecommunication market for companies to provide optimal service to their customers. Telecom companies provide these services through means of technology in various forms such as phones or even the internet. Now, players within the industry are all competing to provide efficient and sustainable services, which is causing a growing competition. Companies are racing to develop innovative technology such as 5G networks, leading to large investments in the industry. According to data compiled by Transparency Market Research, the global telecommunication service market was valued at USD 0.8 Billion in 2016 and is expected to reach USD 1.4 Billion by 2025. Additionally, the market is expected to witness a CAGR of 6.6% throughout the forecast period from 2017 to 2025.

The telecommunication services market is categorized into two of the most common segments: commercial and residential. Out of the two, the residential segment is expected to account for the largest market share, holding 61.8% of the market value. However, the commercial segment could witness the fastest CAGR during the period. The acceleration in the commercial segment is expected to be driven by the demand for bundled services due to their high quality and lower rates. "The level of future uncertainty is increasing around the telecommunications industry – driven by rapid technological, regulatory, and customer demand changes. Still, the opportunities are greater today than ever before for industry players that embrace disruption, reimagine their network services capabilities, and drive growth," said Innosight Managing Director Patrick Viguerie, Cowan Consulting Chief Executive Officer Keith Cowan, and Innosight Partner Brian Hindo. "To get a glimpse of what the "future of telecom" (the "FoT") could look like, we point to the potential capabilities of 5G wireless technologies, and the planned buildout of the FirstNet carrier-grade public safety network, along with the rapidly evolving customer needs relating to Internet of Things (IoT) services and service models."

Recently, Sprint announced that it had reached a significant milestone on its path towards launching mobile 5G service beginning in the first half of this year. Together with Nokia and Qualcomm Technologies, Inc., a subsidiary of Qualcomm Incorporated, the companies recently completed the world's first over-the-air 5G data transmission using 2.5 GHz and Massive MIMO on Sprint's live commercial network. The field test, conducted on Sprint's commercial network in San Diego, used global 5G standards on a commercial 3GPP 5G New Radio (NR) network with Sprint's 2.5 GHz spectrum, Nokia's dual-mode AirScale Massive MIMO radio, and a mobile smartphone form-factor test device powered by the Qualcomm® Snapdragon™ X50 5G modem and antenna modules with integrated RF transceiver, RF front-end and antenna elements. The test demonstrated a seamless transition of connectivity between Sprint's 4G LTE Advanced and 5G network, while streaming YouTube videos, conducting Skype audio and video calls, and sending and receiving Instant Messages. "This is a big step forward – Sprint 5G is now out of the lab and in the field as we prepare for our commercial launch in the first half of this year," said Dr. John Saw, Sprint's Chief Technology Officer.

Nokia develops and delivers the industry's only end-to-end portfolio of network equipment, software, services and licensing that is available globally. Nokia, in advance of Mobile World Congress 2019, recently announced that it is opening a network of Cognitive Collaboration Hubs. These data science centers will further the cooperation between Nokia, operators, and enterprises under one roof in order to develop innovative, AI-powered use cases. One such use case is Driver Behavior Analytics that aims to improve road safety by providing real-time analysis of driver performance and road conditions. By hosting development on the Nokia AVA cognitive services platform, the hubs will reduce operators' time to market and increase their return on investments in data analytics. The hubs provide a catalyst for operator strategy development and help them solve key challenges by applying analytics and Artificial Intelligence (AI) techniques. Agile development processes are used to jointly create use cases, test and put them into operation within weeks. Typical application areas focus on network operations, network performance, customer experience and data monetization. 5G is another key focus, and Nokia is currently working with several US operators on the use of machine learning to improve 5G network planning - for example to help identify the best site locations or Massive MIMO beamforming configurations. Dennis Lorenzin, Head of the Network Cognitive Service Unit at Nokia said, "Nokia Cognitive Collaboration Hubs are yet another step in the expansion of our data analytics and AI services capabilities, which are widely recognized as industry-leading. Building on our data science and telco expertise, we are helping our customers apply AI technologies to improve their operational efficiency, prepare their networks for 5G, and generate new revenues."
