Market Share of Cellular IoT Industry
The cellular internet of things (IoT) market is semi-consolidated due to a few large and small players in both domestic and international markets. Because of a few technological behemoths, the market appears to be semi-consolidated. Product innovation and mergers and acquisitions are key market strategies the major players employ. The following are some of the market's most significant developments:
In February 2023, Qualcomm, a US mobile chip company, launched a new platform Qualcomm Aware, a cloud-friendly bundle that includes Qualcomm silicon and an ecosystem of hardware and software partners. The concept appears to be a one-stop shop for all types of IoT projects overseen by Qualcomm. Furthermore, "Qualcomm Aware is designed to provide organizations across industries with a scalable, cost-effective, capital-efficient investment solution that accelerates time to market, simplifies digital transformation, and delivers transformative insights needed to reduce risk, make more informed business decisions, and navigate cross-industry challenges."
In November 2022, Quectel Wireless Solutions, a global IoT and automotive solutions provider, announced the release of its new AG18 automotive module, one of the next generation of cellular vehicle-to-everything (C-V2X) modules. With PC5 direct communications, the module allows vehicles to communicate with one another and with their surroundings effectively, ensuring improved safety and traffic efficiency.
Furthermore, the AG18 supports vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V), vehicle-to-infrastructure (V2I), and vehicle-to-pedestrian (V2P) communications on the unified 5.9GHz intelligent transportation system (ITS) band without the need for a (U)SIM, cellular subscription, or network assistance. In addition to superior C-V2X communication capabilities, the AG18 module includes flexible positioning service options such as L1+L5 dual frequency GNSS, Qualcomm Dead Reckoning (QDR3), and high-precision PPE (RTK), ensuring that global automotive OEMs and Tier 1 suppliers can leverage location technology appropriate to their application requirements.
