Ericsson expects to account for almost one-fifth of global mobile phone subscriptions by the end of 2023, with growth proving robust despite continuing economic challenges and geopolitical instability in some markets. It is estimated that this will result in 5G contracts.This statistic is from the November 2023 edition. Ericsson Mobility ReportAccording to the 2023 calendar year, there will be 610 million new 5G subscriptions, an increase of 63% compared to 2022, bringing the global total to 1.6 billion, about 100 million more than previously predicted. It is expected.
The latest report (25th edition) presents a new upper-bound timeline for statistical projections to 2028-2029. Consistent with recent editions, the November 2023 report confirms enhancements in mobile broadband, fixed wireless access, gaming, and AR/VR. Based services are among the most common early consumer use cases for 5G.
Regionally, 5G subscriber penetration in North America remains strong. By the end of 2023, the region’s 5G subscriber penetration is expected to be 61%, the highest in the world. In India, 5G subscriber growth was also strong throughout 2023. By the end of 2023, 14 months after commercial launch, 5G penetration in India is expected to exceed 11%.
Over the six years from the end of 2023 to 2029, the number of 5G subscribers worldwide is expected to grow by more than 330%, from 1.6 billion to 5.3 billion. 5G coverage is expected to be available to more than 45 percent of the world’s population by the end of 2023 and more than 85 percent by the end of 2029. North America and the Gulf Cooperation Council are expected to have the highest regional 5G penetration rates. By the end of 2029, it will be 92%. The 85% penetration rate is expected to continue in Western Europe.
Fredrik Jedling, Executive Vice President and Head of Networks at Ericsson, said: “With more than 600 million 5G contracts added worldwide this year and increasing numbers in each region, demand for high-performance connectivity is growing. It’s clear that he’s strong.” “5G deployment continues, with an increasing number of 5G standalone networks being deployed, creating opportunities for both consumers and businesses to support new and more demanding applications. ”
The global average data consumption per smartphone continues to increase. Total mobile data traffic is estimated to increase three times from the end of 2023 to the end of 2029. This is due to factors such as improved device capabilities, increased data-intensive content, and continued improvements in the performance of deployed networks.
“The rate of data growth in mobile networks clearly reflects consumers’ passion for enhancing mobile broadband-related applications,” advises Peter Johnson, executive editor of Ericsson’s Ericsson Mobility Report. “As more consumers around the world adopt 5G and new use cases emerge, this trend will further accelerate and cause further growth in data traffic. of time spent indoors, increasing the need to extend 5G mid-band coverage both indoors and outdoors to ensure a comprehensive 5G experience everywhere.”
5G mid-band combines high capacity with excellent coverage, making it the ideal choice to provide a complete 5G experience. His 5G mid-band population coverage of the world is now over 40%, increasing from 30% in 2022. This growth is primarily driven by large mid-band deployments in India, but there are also some mid-band deployments in Europe.
This report explores wireless connectivity in manufacturing, how 5G is becoming a key determinant of output, and how 5G enables the agility needed to support rapid change and reallocation of resources. We are also investigating.
