Telecom industry globally has been moving from 2G/2.5G to 3G based systems. In countries like India the wireline segment is stagnant or on a decline while wireless segment is seeing unprecedented growth. Globally "convergence" is the biggest trend in telecom. Several consumer electronics such as PC, TV, Music Players are getting integrated into the phones. E.g, mobile internet, mobile TV and IPTV on broadband. Expect your mobile to do what your PC does and more. Mobile will pave the way for faster internet penetration and innovation. Mobile Healthcare and banking in urban and rural areas is becoming a reality.
The wireless telecom industry in developing world continues to be in the news and evoke interest across all segments of society — consumers, PE/VC firms, the stock market and the corporate world. The wireless market in emerging economies is also characterized by low ARPU (average revenue per user), reducing tariffs, and high churn rates.
Advanced wireless technologies such as 3G, LTE and WiMax will rise in prominence and become enablers to the telecom revolution.
