330 operators investing in 5G networks - 51 operators with commercially launched 3GPP-compliant 5G services

5G & LTE NETWORKS MARKET STATISTICS

As of mid-November 2019 GSA’s NTS database showed:

• 330 operators in 110 countries are investing in 5G networks in

the form of tests, trials, pilots, planned and actual deployments.

• 73 operators have announced they have deployed 3GPP-

compliant 5G technology in their networks.

• With multiple announcements of 5G launches in recent weeks,

GSA now counts 51 operators in 27 countries that have

launched one or more 3GPP-compliant commercial 5G services

• There are 787 operators with commercially launched LTE

networks

• 359 operators investing in either LTE-Advanced or LTE-

Advanced Pro technologies.

• Of those, 321 operators have deployed/launched LTE-

Advanced or LTE-Advanced Pro technologies in their

commercial networks.

The NTS database tracks various LTE network technologies:

• 4x4 MIMO – 144 operators identified as investing, of which 86 have deployed/launched the technology within their


• 8T8R MIMO and Massive MIMO – 64 operators identified as investing in these technologies; at least 28 deployed/launched.

• 256 QAM in the DL – 118 operators identified as investing, of which 73 have deployed/launched the technology within their


And numerous key LTE service features:

• 37 operators investing in LAA (8 with deployed/launched networks); 11 operators investing in LTE-U (3 with

deployed/launched networks); 3 operators investing in LWA (one launch so far). 17 public network operators (all in the US)

are investing in CBRS.

• 268 operators investing in VoLTE, with 204 deployed/launched networks.

• 5 launched/deployed eMBMS services.

• 158 operators investing in NB-IoT with 105 deployed/launched networks.

• 68 operators investing in LTE-M with 42 deployed/launched networks.

“C-BAND” CEPT (ITU REGION 1)


Where GSA only holds data about

regulator strategies in relation to

imprecise bands, our interpretation

of spectrum ranges is as follows:

"C Band“: 3300–4200 MHz; 3.3

GHz: 3300–3400 MHz; 3.5 GHz:

3400–3600 MHz; 3.6 GHz: 3500–

3700 MHz; 3.7 GHz: 3600–3800

MHz. In many countries there are

existing non-5G licenses that are

due for expiry within a few years.

These are not shown on the charts.
