The massive infrastructure upgrade required to support 5G networks around the world has undoubtedly been one of the biggest brakes on the growth trajectory of the 5G chipset market. Rolling out 5G requires a complete overhaul of the existing telecom infrastructure with the installation of many more base stations and towers compared to previous generations of wireless technology. This is because 5G networks have shorter range and need many localized network enhancements to deliver the lower latency and higher speeds that the technology promises. However, making such large infrastructure investments has proved challenging for many telecom operators who are still recovering from their 4G network rollouts.
Market Opportunities: Emerging applications of 5G technology
The emerging applications of 5G technology promises to be a great growth opportunity for the global 5G chipset market in the coming years. 5G is expected to enable a whole new generation of applications and use cases that require ultra-low latency and high bandwidth. New applications such as augmented reality/virtual reality, autonomous driving, telemedicine, smart cities, and industrial IoT are likely to see huge growth once 5G networks are widely deployed globally.
By enhancing connectivity and experience, 5G will play a vital role in further advancing these new technologies. For example, applications like autonomous driving requires near real-time connectivity to function safely on roads. A low latency 5G network can help transmit critical driving data from sensors instantly. Industries are also looking to leverage 5G to automate complex processes and increase efficiency through techniques like distributed robotics which need reliable high-speed connectivity. The healthcare sector too is exploring innovative telemedicine applications such as remote surgery which depends on fast, low latency 5G networks for seamless connectivity.
