Frequency Insights

In 2022, the sub-6 GHz segment held the largest revenue share of over 84.0% and is expected to exhibit a CAGR of nearly 47.2% from 2023 to 2030. The sub-6 GHz frequency encompasses a low band and a mid-band of spectrum ranges mainly 6GHz and below. Recently, governments across key countries, such as China, the U.S., Japan, and South Korea, released sub-6 GHz frequencies to provide 5G services. mmWave frequencies are high band frequencies that provide significantly high connectivity with very low latency. These frequency bands would be mainly helpful wherein ultra-reliable connectivity would be required, especially in infrastructure connectivity.

In addition, few federal governments across leading countries have released mmWave frequency bands to provide private 5G services. For instance, the Federal Communication Commission (FCC) released several mmWave frequencies, including 24.25-24.45 GHz, 47.2-48.2 GHz, 24.75-25.25 GHz, and 38.6-40 GHz, among others. In addition, countries such as Russia, Japan, South Korea, and Italy have released mmWave frequencies for enhanced data services. Thus, the high focus to release mmWave frequencies by key federal governments is expected to augment the mmWave segment growth in the next seven years.

Spectrum Insights

In 2022, the unlicensed/shared segment accounted for the highest revenue share of over 71.0% and is projected to expand further at the fastest CAGR from 2023 to 2030.
