Friday 29 March 2013, Amsterdam

Our latest report the Global 20 Leading LTE Infrastructure Companies 2013: Competitive Landscape Analysis examines the market leaders in LTE infrastructure, including breakthrough technologies, significant deployment contracts, mergers, acquisitions, patents, and research and development.

Soaring data traffic demands mean that mobile networks are inevitably having to transition to 4G technologies. The introduction of superphones and tablets has saturated the mobile market, and the introduction of new, faster network technologies has become a matter of adapt-or-perish. Having a robust and practicable LTE strategy is what will separate today’s incumbent operators from tomorrows. Successful vendors of these strategies will reap significant share of a market visiongain calculated at $10.84 billion in 2012

The technologies, products, and strategies set forth by today’s major players will guide the immediate and long-term future of IP-based mobile networks. Because LTE deployments are consolidated, unified, and future-proof, they will be a bedrock for the next generation of wireless telephony and data transmission.

Most importantly, the surging development of LTE infrastructure will also generate massive revenue in mobile backhaul, semiconductors, end-user equipment, and a throng of other tangential markets. The health and financial security of LTE infrastructure leaders will rely heavily upon wise acquisitions, partnerships, and investment in these vital sub-markets.

Consumer demand and uptake of LTE-ready technology shows no sign of slowing. In January 2013, there are 114 LTE network deployments and LTE-A is just imminent. Tablet and LTE handset sales continue to climb strongly, testing network capacity and efficiency for delivering a high-quality data-rich mobile experience. This is a historic moment in telecommunications history, where consumers are outstripping the pace of the market and ushering vendors and operators towards change. The Global 20 Leading LTE Infrastructure Companies 2013: Competitive Landscape Analysis report examines who is ready to lead the charge.

The 114 page report contains 83 tables, charts, figures, and graphs that contribute visual analysis to our appraisal of developing trends.
