LTE & 5G Broadcast Market Size

ID: MRFR//9047-HCR | 99 Pages | Author: Ankit Gupta| November 2024

The market dynamics of LTE and 5G broadcast technology are constantly evolving, driven by a myriad of factors influencing adoption, deployment, and expansion. LTE, or Long-Term Evolution, has been a foundational technology for high-speed mobile communication, providing significant improvements over previous generations. However, with the emergence of 5G, the landscape is rapidly shifting. The transition from LTE to 5G is not just an upgrade but a fundamental leap in network capabilities, promising ultra-low latency, massive connectivity, and blazing-fast speeds.


One key aspect driving the market dynamics is consumer demand. As consumers increasingly rely on mobile devices for streaming high-definition videos, online gaming, and other bandwidth-intensive applications, there's a growing need for faster and more reliable network connections. LTE has served this demand admirably, but the limitations become apparent in densely populated areas or during peak usage times. 5G, with its enhanced capacity and efficiency, addresses these challenges, promising seamless connectivity even in crowded urban environments.


Another factor shaping the market dynamics is the proliferation of Internet of Things (IoT) devices. With the advent of smart homes, connected cars, and industrial automation, there's a massive influx of IoT devices expected to join the network. LTE networks have struggled to efficiently handle the sheer volume of connections inherent in IoT deployments. 5G, with its support for massive machine-type communication, is poised to unlock the full potential of IoT, enabling seamless connectivity for billions of devices simultaneously.


Furthermore, the competitive landscape among telecommunications providers plays a crucial role in driving market dynamics. As 5G becomes the new standard, telecom companies are racing to roll out their networks and capture market share. This competition leads to innovation and investment in infrastructure, ultimately benefiting consumers with better service and lower prices. However, the transition to 5G also poses challenges for legacy LTE networks, forcing providers to carefully manage the transition to ensure continuity of service for existing customers while investing in the future.


Regulatory policies and spectrum availability also influence the market dynamics of LTE and 5G broadcast technology. Governments around the world play a vital role in allocating spectrum and setting regulatory frameworks that govern telecommunications. The availability of spectrum, especially in high-frequency bands like mmWave, directly impacts the performance and scalability of 5G networks. Moreover, regulatory decisions regarding spectrum sharing, licensing fees, and network deployment can either accelerate or impede the adoption of new technologies.


Additionally, the ecosystem of device manufacturers, content providers, and application developers contributes to the market dynamics of LTE and 5G broadcast technology. The availability of compatible devices, such as smartphones, tablets, and IoT sensors, is essential for widespread adoption. Content providers are adapting their offerings to leverage the capabilities of high-speed networks, creating new revenue streams and business models. Meanwhile, application developers are exploring innovative use cases enabled by low latency and high bandwidth, ranging from augmented reality to remote surgery.

LTE & 5G Broadcast Market Synopsis


The LTE and 5G broadcast market is expected to grow at a steady CAGR of 4.05%, reaching USD 60.34 Billion by 2030. The term ‘broadcasting’ refers to distribution of same content to multiple users simultaneously over a network. For instance, say LTE broadcast technology that enables distribute single stream of data to all the end-users connected to its network. 3GPP (or 3rd Generation Partnership Project [3GPP]) has developed a number of protocols for mobile communications among one of them is evolved Multimedia Broadcast Multicast Service (eMBMS) standard for video broadcast over the mobile networks.


5G or Fifth Generation of wireless standard that enables connecting everything everywhere, catering to the ever rising demand for rapid digitization and faster data transmission. 5G enables connect car, home, office, and communicate across the city with upto 100 times faster data transmission speeds when compared to its predecessor- 4G, which was meant for mobile broadband services. Additionally, the 5G wireless technology is expected to support over a million devices in an area of 1 sq. km. much higher than 4G.With the evolution of this technology, broadcasting was one of the earliest identified end-use application of 5G. 5G is expected to generate new streams of revenue such as new broadcast and multicast capabilities.


Several factors contributing to the growth of LTE & 5G Broadcast market comprise of benefits offered by LTE & 5G broadcast infrastructure such as delivery of bulk volumes of data services, mission critical exchange of information, device software update or configuration, among others that enable users and providers share and enjoy same content at the same moment.


However, inavailability of 5G broadcast compatible end-use devicesat consumer end is expected to hamperthe market growth. Although, rapid advancements in public safety communications systems including increased number of machine to machine communication in 5G networks with higher video quality (4K at present), computer vision, augmented and/or virtual reality, facial recognition cameras, AI-based video surveillance systems, among others.


Segmentation


The global LTE & 5G broadcast market has been segmented based on technology, end-use, and region.


By technology, the global LTE & 5G broadcast market has been divided into LTE broadcast and 5G broadcast. LTE broadcast technology is based on the 3GPP or also called as evolved Multimedia Broadcast Multicast Service (eMBMS) standard (a global standard for video broadcast over a mobile network). A specified spectrum is allocated to broadcast operators to cast specific content delivering mission critical communication, device updates, music/audio broadcasting, public safety information, and other applications. On the other hand, 5G broadcast promises to cater new broadcast and multicast abilities such as in-moving car experience through media & entertainment, OTA updates, navigation, live streaming of commerce & online learning content, and so on.
