Telecom Insidersインデックス

このレポートは、中東のLTE市場の展開について調査し、主要国別ケーススタディを掲載しています。

The wealthier Gulf region has already displayed a great appetite for data services, and the absence of widespread fixed broadband infrastructures forced most subscribers to rely on mobile technologies for their Internet needs. Consequently, mobile operators in these markets have experienced quick returns on their network investments while accumulating valuable expertise in 3G technologies. We expect LTE adoption in the region to reach 6.1% of all mobile subscriptions by 2014, due to strong growth of demand for data services, the region’s existing reliance on mobile rather than fixed access technologies and the increasingly competitive approaches of the telecom regulators. Among the region’s LTE pioneers – specifically Saudi Arabia, UAE and Bahrain -- we project LTE adoption to reach 11.1% of all subscriptions by 2014, which surpasses our forecast of a 7.7% LTE adoption rate in Western Europe.

This Insider examines the market criteria that will drive the early LTE deployments in the Middle East. By relating the driving factors to our forecasts for LTE adoption, it shows why certain markets are better positioned for growth than others in the region. The report also investigates the obstacles that some Middle Eastern markets may face despite sharing some commonalities with the early adopters. To provide a closer look at the active dynamics, this report presents three case studies from Saudi Arabia, UAE, and Turkey, which collectively comprise more than half of the total mobile service revenues in the region.
