Global 5G subscriptions are forecast to reach one billion by the end of this year, and five billion by the end of 2028, despite current and developing economic challenges in many parts of the world, according to the latest edition of the Ericsson Mobility Report.
The report also forecasts a higher than expected expansion in the fixed wireless access (FWA) segment at a global level.
The Swedish vendor noted that FWA is one of the major early 5G use cases, particularly in regions with unserved or underserved broadband markets.
