3G traffic in mature markets to increase 20 fold by end of 2014 says new report from TelecomsMarketResearch.com.LONDON -- A new offering from www.TelecomsMarketResearch.com says that 3G traffic volumes will continue to grow significantly and some HSPA (High Speed Packet Access) A family of high-speed 3G digital data services provided by cellular carriers worldwide that use the GSM technology. HSPA service works with HSPA cellphones as well as laptops and portable devices with HSPA modems. networks will have capacity shortfalls by the middle of 2010. The report brings together for the first time both 3G traffic AND capacity forecasts, and finds that 3G networks globally have seen substantial traffic growth, as some 2/2.5G customers have moved to 3G services and mobile broadband Description Mobile Broadband is a type of wireless internet access that differs from Wi-Fi. Mobile Broadband is the name used to describe the 3G services which are made possible by HSDPA and HSUPA, the latest technologies on the W-CDMA evolutionary path. services have emerged. However, the report also found that critically HSPA capacity will soon be used-up, with the continued take-up of mobile broadband services and the migration of most 2/2.5G users to 3G services within five years. "Mobile broadband services are already having a profound impact on 3G networks, and yet mobile broadband penetration is still lower than 10% in most countries," according to according to prep. 1.

Such services are extremely network-intensive. "A mobile broadband customer using 1GB per month consumes the equivalent network capacity of over 7,000 minutes of voice telephony Meaning "sound over distance," it refers to electronically transmitting the human voice. In the beginning, telephony dealt only with analog signals in the circuit-switched networks of the telephone companies. ," adds Heath. This report, 'Will 3G Networks Cope?' (http://www.telecomsmarketresearch.com/research/TMAAASFQ-Will-3G-Networks-Cope--.shtml) found that to the end of 2014, 3G traffic volumes in developed markets will increase 20 fold. Drivers for this include increasing 3G penetration, continued adoption of mobile broadband services, escalating penetration of smartphones, proliferation proliferation /pro·lif·er·a·tion/ (pro-lif?er-a´shun) the reproduction or multiplication of similar forms, especially of cells.prolif´erativeprolif´erous pro·lif·er·a·tion n. of flat-rate service bundles and increasing usage of 3G devices indoors. It also found that there are significant differences in the outlook for different types of 3G operator. Some incumbent 3G operators with large customer bases will face HSPA capacity shortfalls in mid-2010, or even earlier if customers migrate rapidly from 2/2.5G to 3G services. In contrast, new-entrant 3G operators will not suffer from severe short-term limitations of HSPA capacity, and will have a two-year window of opportunity to aggressively promote mobile broadband services.
