5G Advanced Market

Market Definition

The 5G Advanced Market size was valued at USD 330.0 million in 2023 and is predicted to reach USD 12673.8 million by 2030 with a CAGR of 68.4% from 2024 to 2030.

5G Advanced, also known as 5G-A, is the next evolution of 5G wireless technology. It is a set of enhancements and upgrades to the original 5G specifications that were defined by the 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP). The key features of 5G Advanced include higher data rates, lower latency, improved reliability, and greater capacity.

It also includes advanced techniques such as carrier aggregation, massive MIMO (Multiple Input Multiple Output), and beamforming to improve spectral efficiency and network performance. 5G Advanced is being developed to meet the growing demand for high-speed, low-latency wireless connectivity and to support emerging applications such as autonomous vehicles, virtual and augmented reality, and smart cities.

Market Dynamics and Trends

The demand for 5G advanced is rising driven by the increasing popularity of mobile video and streaming services such as Netflix, YouTube, and Amazon Prime Video, necessitating high-speed, low-latency networks to ensure consistent quality of service. 

Moreover, the integration of 5G technology in the e-commerce and retail sector enhances customer connectivity, leading to increased sales and improved inventory management efficiencies. According to the Shopify, the global e-commerce industry size is expected to reach USD 58,740 billion by 2028, with the CAGR of 26.5%.

Furthermore, the growing number of IoT devices, there is a need for 5G Advanced networks to support massive machine-type communication (mMTC) and ultra-reliable low-latency communication (URLLC) for real-time control and monitoring of these devices, which in turn fuels the growth of the market. According to the IoT Analytics, the number of global IoT connections grew by 18% in 2022 to 14.3 billion active IoT endpoints and there will be 29 billion IoT connections by 2027.

However, the deployment of 5G technology requires significant investments in infrastructure, that acts as a financial burden for small and medium size industries, thus restraining the growth of the market. On the contrary, the introduction of massive MIMO (Multiple-Input Multiple-Output) technology is expected to create ample growth opportunities for the market in the future. As it uses a large number of antennas to increase the capacity and speed of wireless communication systems.
