With a successful business model, Qualcomm has dominated the CDMA (Code Division Multiple Access), 3G EV-DO (Evolution-Data Optimized), and 4G LTE (Long Term Evolution) baseband markets. But success comes with hidden worries. The company's excessive focus on the mobile phone market has led to a decline in its revenue and patent royalty.
Therefore, Qualcomm has tried to transform its business and drive sustainable growth through strategic investments in the development of emerging applications, acquisitions, and technologies and patents. These efforts, especially the emerging application markets that Qualcomm's AI (Artificial Intelligence) technology has aimed at, provide important clues for understanding Qualcomm's deployment plans. This report looks into what core AI technologies Qualcomm has focused on and examines smart applications that Qualcomm's AI technology has been applied to.

Methodology
Primary research with a holistic, cross-domain approach
The exhaustive primary research methods are central to the value that the analyst delivers. A combination of questionnaires and on-site visits to the major manufacturers provides a first view of the latest data and trends. Information is subsequently validated by interviews with the manufacturers' suppliers and customers, covering a holistic industry value chain. This process is backed up by a cross-domain team-based approach, creating an interlaced network across numerous interrelated components and system-level devices to ensure statistical integrity and provide in-depth insight.
Complementing primary research is a running database and secondary research of industry and market information. Dedicated research into the macro-environmental trends shaping the ICT industry also allows the analyst to forecast future development trends and generate foresight perspectives. With more than 20 years of experience and endeavors in research, the methods and methodologies include:
