The overall spending in wireless broadband technologies is expected to grow from $15.2 billion in 2009 to $22.3 billion by 2015, registering a CAGR of 6.5% during 2010-2015. The market is further expected to have a total spending of $34.7 billion by the end of 2020; registering a CAGR of 9.3% during 2015 – 2020.

Wireless broadband technology, in its various forms, is getting popular, driven by its applications in public safety, transportation, and utility industries. The sector had earlier experienced problems due to unreliable equipment and faulty network designs, but these have been taken care of with improvements in infrastructure and advanced network technologies.

With increasing terrorism across the globe and unanticipated natural disasters over the last decade, the public safety application segment has emerged as a key market for the wireless broadband technology providers. Growth in the implementation of city-wide and municipal wireless broadband services is driving innovations and the number of new services, worth billions of dollars, is expected to increase within the next five years benefiting ISPs (internet service providers), mobile device, and infrastructure developers.

Developments during the next three to six years are expected to be crucial for wireless broadband technologies. Analog television spectrum is likely to be cleared by most countries and auctioned off to mobile broadband operators. In line with the U.S., these spectrums are likely to be used in public safety applications in many countries. The usage of satellite technology in public safety is gaining momentum as there is a growing need for integration and effective collaboration among public safety institutions and advanced navigation and information system; especially in remote locations.

Wireless Broadband in Public Safety - Advanced Technologies and Global Market (2010 - 2015)

Wireless broadband technologies have been constantly evolving over the decades after their introduction in 1980s. There have been massive advances and developments; both in terms of technologies and devices, and the way these technologies interoperate. The public safety market provides large opportunity for global wireless broadband technologies market players as the overall spending is expected to reach from $15.2 billion in 2010 to $22.3 billion in 2015, registering a CAGR of 6.5% from 2010 to 2015.

The market is further expected to have a total spending of $34.7 billion by the end of 2020, registering a CAGR of 9.3% from 2015 to 2020.

Enhancement in public safety and availability of real-time information have high affect on wireless broadband for public safety market as security and safety of the citizens and public is an everyday issue and vital actions are being taken across the globe to enhance public safety.

The opportunities such as next-generation technologies and crisis, and disaster mitigation will highly affect the public safety market, whereas restraints such as less funding in the public safety domain and security threats and interceptions will have a high impact on the market in short term, but as the benefits from wireless broadband network technologies are ascertained, its overall impact will reduce in the long term.

Network technology and infrastructure are the major contributors; followed by services in terms of revenue but in terms of growth, network technology and infrastructure market is leading.
