The wireless telecommunication carriers market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $1170.6 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.2%. The anticipated expansion in the forecast period is linked to the development of smart cities, concerns regarding cybersecurity, spectrum auctions and allocation, energy efficiency, environmental sustainability, and advancements in public safety communications. Key trends expected in the forecast period encompass Internet of Things (IoT) connectivity, the implementation of network slicing for tailored services, virtualization of network functions, integration of satellites for connectivity, and the adoption of network automation and artificial intelligence for operational purposes.
The anticipated surge in the use of mobile devices is expected to drive the growth of the wireless telecommunication carriers market in the future. A mobile device, defined as a handheld computing device small enough to be operated in the hand and carried around, may include voice communication capabilities, on-board sensors for information capture, and built-in features for data synchronization with remote locations. Wireless telecommunication carriers play a vital role in the mobile device industry by providing the necessary infrastructure and services for mobile devices to connect to the internet and communicate with other devices. For instance, in February 2023, Uswitch Limited reported that the UK witnessed a 3.8% increase (approximately 2.6 million) in mobile connections from 2021 to 2022, reaching a total of 71.8 million connections. With the UK population expected to grow to 68.3 million by 2025, around 95% (approximately 65 million individuals) are projected to own a smartphone. Hence, the growing use of mobile devices is a key driver for the wireless telecommunication carriers market.
The expected rise in per capita disposable income is also set to fuel the growth of the wireless telecommunication carriers market. Per capita disposable income, measuring the amount of money an individual has after tax and other mandatory expenses, can boost corporate profits, leading to increased investment in the wireless telecommunication carriers market. In January 2022, the State Council of the People's Republic of China reported a 9.1% year-on-year increase in China's per capita disposable income, reaching 35,128 yuan (approximately $5,523) in 2021. Therefore, the growth of per capita disposable income contributes to the expansion of the wireless telecommunication carriers market.
The outbreak of the COVID-19 disease had a significant impact on the wireless telecommunication carriers market in 2020, acting as a restraint due to disruptions in supply chains, trade restrictions, and challenges faced by employees working from home amid infrastructure and communication issues caused by global lockdowns. COVID-19, identified in 2019 in Wuhan, Hubei province of China, led to economic decline and negative consequences for businesses in 2020 and 2021. Despite these challenges, it is expected that the wireless telecommunication carriers market will recover from the COVID-19-related setbacks throughout the forecast period, considering it as a 'black swan' event not indicative of ongoing market weaknesses or fundamental issues in the global economy.
The telecoms industry is on the brink of a significant transformation with the impending arrival of fifth-generation mobile networks, commonly known as 5G. 5G is anticipated to surpass the speed capabilities of the current 4G network. Although the commercial availability of the 5G network is pending, this next-generation mobile network is poised to provide the necessary capacity to fuel the Internet of Things (IoT) revolution. A crucial attribute expected from 5G is low latency.
Key players in the wireless telecommunication carriers market are actively engaged in the introduction of innovative software toolboxes to enhance real-time 5G experiences. These software toolboxes play a vital role in addressing delays and disruptions in mobile networks, facilitating the execution of time-critical use cases on a large scale. For example, in October 2021, Ericsson, a telecommunications company based in Sweden, unveiled Time-Critical Communication (TCC), a new software toolbox designed to ensure consistent low latency and high reliability in 5G networks. This technology aims to enhance user experiences in applications such as cloud gaming and augmented reality/virtual reality (AR/VR), while also opening avenues for new applications such as remote control, mobility automation, and industrial control. Ericsson's Critical IoT offering, deployable as a software upgrade on both public and private 5G networks across various frequency bands, exemplifies how wireless telecommunication providers embrace cutting-edge technology to elevate the quality of their services and meet the growing demand for cellular internet services.
In May 2023, Zeebu, a blockchain-based settlement platform headquartered in the United States, formed partnerships with four global telecom carriers - BBT Voice Limited, Broadband Telecom Inc., BridgeVoice Inc., and Novatel. This collaboration aims to extend Zeebu's solutions to millions of clients and enhance transactions within the global telecom carrier industry.
