5G Infrastructure Market: Global Industry Trends, Share, Size, Growth, Opportunity and Forecast 2020-2025

Market Overview:

The global 5G infrastructure market grew at a CAGR of around 52% during 2014-2019. 5G (fifth generation) infrastructure refers to a network of macro and small cell base stations that integrates telecom and computer and storage resources into a unified system. It relies on software-defined networking (SDN), network functions virtualization (NFV), mobile edge computing (MEC) and fog computing (FC) technologies to increase agility, improve scalability and attain ultra-low latency. It also supports high mobility, throughput, connection density and multi-gigabit per second (Gbps) peak data speed. Currently, telecom operators are adopting a non-standalone (NSA) approach to deploy 5G infrastructure across the globe.

The 5G network provides enhanced mobile broadband (MBB), massive machine type communication (MTC) and ultra-reliable and low latency communication (URLLC). This, along with the escalating demand for high-speed data and superior network reliability, represents one of the key factors bolstering the 5G infrastructure market growth worldwide. Besides this, the rising trend of automation in industrial processes is positively influencing the demand for 5G infrastructure to improve operational productivity and precision. Furthermore, 5G networks are gaining traction in the healthcare industry as they aid in monitoring medical procedures remotely and providing critical care treatment. Moreover, they find applications in the internet of things (IoT) devices, semi-autonomous vehicles, augmented reality (AR), smart grids, kitchen appliances and climate control systems. This, in confluence with the emergence of driverless automobiles and smart electronic devices, is also contributing to the market growth. Apart from this, the development of smart cities, coupled with a considerable shift towards precision farming, digitized logistics and instant cloud computing, is anticipated to drive the market further. Looking forward, IMARC Group expects the global 5G infrastructure market to continue its robust growth during the next five years.
