Public Safety LTE & Mobile Broadband Market Analysis and Forecast Report 2015-2030

Public Safety LTE & Mobile Broadband Market Analysis
and Forecast Report 2015-2030: Radiant Insights, Inc
Due to the bandwidth limitations of their traditional voice-centric LMR (Land Mobile
Radio) networks, public safety agencies are keen to leverage commercial cellular network
technology to support their growing broadband application needs. Considering its thriving
ecosystem, spectrum flexibility and performance metrics, LTE has emerged as the leading
candidate for public safety mobile broadband networks.
Standardization efforts are still underway to enhance the LTE standard for public safety
requirements, including MCPTT (Mission Critical PTT) functionality, group
communications and proximity services. However, this has not deterred public safety
agencies from early deployments of the technology, particularly in the Middle East and Asia
Pacific regions.
The Qatar MOI made headlines when it deployed a private 800 MHz LTE network to
complement its existing TETRA network with broadband applications. Since then, several
private LTE networks have sprung up across the globe. For example, the Lijiang Police in
China is utilizing a 20 site private LTE network for video surveillance and related
applications.

While most initial public safety LTE investments were limited to small scale networks,
South Korea’s nationwide public safety LTE rollout is expected to trigger significant largescale
investments throughout the globe. Several early adopter private LTE deployments
are also underway in the United States, as part of the planned FirstNet nationwide network.
Europe, on the other hand, is predominantly seeing growing adoption of security hardened
MVNO services that utilize commercial LTE networks to provide broadband access for
public safety subscribers. However, private LTE pilots are also underway in the region,
including engagements with armed forces with a major focus on transportable base station
form factors, such as CIAB (Cell-in-a-Box).
Driven by the thriving ecosystem, we expect public safety LTE infrastructure investments
to grow at a CAGR of nearly 40% between 2015 and 2020. By the end of 2020,

infrastructure investments which include base stations (eNBs), mobile core and mobile
backhaul gear will account for over $2 Billion. The market for ruggedized public safety LTE
devices will also witness significant growth, with an estimated 4 Million annual device
shipments in 2020.
