(Figure: Loss of 5G leadership may affect a country's economy)
Analysys Mason's research found that China has many advantages, including the pursuit of wireless operators for 5G technology, the government's active support for research, the definitive launch of the 5G network plan by 2020, and the government’s commitment to spectrum, which is essential for wireless services. Bo. Analysys Mason believes that after China and South Korea, the United States and Japan can also gain global leadership in the 5G field.
This study marks the latest advances in 5G technology. 5G is the next generation of cellular technology, which will accelerate its speed and provide impetus for technology fields such as driverless cars or streaming virtual reality (VR) services. During the year, many companies and government agencies are quietly trying to piece together these pieces to create a 5G network.
Analysys Mason was commissioned by CTIA (on behalf of operators such as Verizon and AT&T) of the US mobile phone industry trade organization and may be exerting pressure on the U.S. government to allow them to freely monitor and acquire 5G spectrum. Considering the White House’s 5G Attitude, this may work. After all, it is reported that the Obama administration had proposed the idea of establishing a nationalized 5G network, while President Donald Trump was intervened for fear of losing US leadership in the 5G field. Broadcom acquires Qualcomm.
U.S. operators are looking to start early. Verizon and AT&T hope to launch 5G services this year, and both T-Mobile and Sprint will begin deployment this year and plan to roll out a wider range of services in 2019. But these services are not yet clear. Will start on a large scale, or whether the early experience will reach the level of hype.
Although there are competitions among the four major U.S. operators, there is also competition among countries around the world. Another study commissioned by CTIA by Recon Analytics shows that losing 5G leadership may have an impact on the economy. Analysts at Recon Analytics Roger Entner said: 'When a country loses its global leadership in the next generation of wireless communications, it will lose its job opportunities and technological innovation will be exported overseas.'
