GiiResearch.com: LTE Devices and Applications - Next-Generation Mobile Networks Driven by Video Services

Hartford, CT, February 05, 2012 --(PR.com)-- LTE provides operators with the opportunity to offer a better user experience, particularly with a focus on video applications.

LTE Devices and Applications: Next-generation mobile networks driven by video services provides an overview and background of the LTE market, operator approaches and the LTE value chain. The report then details LTE devices, including PC add-ons, hotspots, smartphones and tablets. Next, Pyramid Research examines LTE applications. Finally, the report concludes by looking at several mobile operator case studies around the world.

“Video accounts for around 40 percent of mobile data traffic, with user-generated content and video streaming being the key mobile video segments,” says Jan ten Sythoff, Pyramid Research Analyst at Large. A good mobile video experience typically results in increased demand, and so LTE is an opportunity for operators to attract top-end users, while also alleviating traffic capacity issues. Operators are therefore looking for more efficient ways of providing this capacity at a time when revenue growth is limited. Indeed this is the key conundrum that operators are currently facing. “The lower cost in communicating mobile data that LTE provides and the increased capacity is a key driver for many operators,” he notes.
