In addition, 5G networks have a greater capacity to support growth in emerging digital applications such as smart cities, autonomous vehicles, and the Internet of Things (IoT).

5G also supports a wide range of applications that enable massive Machine Type Communications (MTC), enhanced Mobile Broadband (eMBB), and importunately Ultra-Reliable and Low Latency Communication (URLLC).

5G networks play an important role in a wide range of applications used for advanced manufacturing, intelligent retail, and connected healthcare among many other applications.

An increasing number of government initiatives focused on driving the adoption of advanced networks for better digital connectivity are expected to drive revenue growth in the global 5G infrastructure market over the forecast period.

However, 4G can be delivered through a comparatively lesser number of tall towers; whereas 5G wireless service relies on many small receivers placed fairly close together.

Hence, investments in 5G infrastructure are expected to be double as compared to setting up of legacy networks as operators strive to meet the demand for increased capacity and deploy 5G, thus resulting in earning lower profits than expected.

Growing awareness regarding the novelty and benefits of smart homes among individuals from the upper-income segment in urban areas owing to increasing disposable income and changing living standards is expected to create opportunities for 5G infrastructure providers in developing countries.

Increasing government initiatives toward the development of smart cities in developing countries are expected to create lucrative opportunities for service providers operating in such countries.

5G deployments are envisioned as complex incorporation of next-generation technological enhancements to telecommunication networks, which will help 5G become a key component for next-generation IoT-based services.

Increasing use of the Internet and rising adoption of IoT-based hardware and software components in manufacturing units across various sectors such as healthcare, automotive, oil & gas, etc., for monitoring and other purposes is expected to create significant revenue opportunities.
