Cognitive Radio Market Trends

• As most wireless communication systems are based on fixed frequency allocation, this results in low spectrum utilization. The growing demand for IoT for industrial use, connected vehicles, and other IT-enabled applications is accelerating the need for more spectrums. Cognitive radio hence plays an important role here as it automatically detects available channels in a wireless spectrum, enabling more communication to run concurrently without obstructing the licensed users.
• According to the GSMA, at the end of November 2022, more than 225 operators from 87 countries launched 5G services. By the end of 2023, the number of 5G mobile connections is expected to reach 1.5 billion. This growth will require additional spectrum resources in different frequency bands.
• To enhance dynamic user experiences in high-capacity scenarios, ZTE Corporation and China Telecom jointly developed a self-adaptive spatiotemporal cognitive network based on ZTE's Radio Composer. The network solution analyzes the traffic space distribution trend in different periods.

Ericsson and AXIAN Telecom announced a partnership to provide faster and more reliable mobile services throughout Madagascar while reducing network energy consumption and enhancing the 5G ecosystem. Through this partnership, AXIAN aims to boost digitalization across Madagascar and Tanzania, increasing network capacities and providing enhanced speeds to its customers.
