Ookla:即使在5G推出后，4G在印度仍然重要
根据Ookla的数据，4G在该国的可用性正在增长，“4G服务”指标(设备可以访问4G- lte的已知运营商位置的百分比)从2020年第四季度的93.5%增加到2021年第二季度的96%。
4G技术将继续在印度电信市场发挥重要作用，即使是在第五代之后5克全球网络测试公司的一位高管表示，技术在这里推出Ookla．
Ookla首席执行官、通用汽车公司联合创始人Doug Suttles告诉ETTelecom:“4G已经是印度的主导网络技术，即使在5G推出后的几年里，它也将继续在市场上发挥重要作用……我们还观察到，在今年3月举行的频谱拍卖之后，运营商部署了更多的频谱资源，在4G速度方面，最近的一些性能改善。”乐动娱乐招聘

根据瑞典电信设备制造商的数据，就数据使用量而言，印度是全球每部智能手机移动数据使用量最高的地区之一，每月14.6GB爱立信的最新流动报告。这高于全球每月9GB的平均水平。
萨特尔斯说:“数据表明，当5G服务在印度推出时，市场处于非常有利的地位，可以满足市场要求的更快速度。”
此外，市场上5G服务的快速采用可能受到开放无线电接入网络(Open RAN)、动态频谱共享(DSS)和价格合理的5G手机的推动。
印度和全球电信公司都寄希望于开放RAN作为降低建设和维护5G网络成本的可行方式。
#ETIMC: Jio, Airtel，沃达丰Idea cto呼吁可负担的5G频谱价格
在etelecom组织的印度移动秘密会议上，所有电信公司的首席技术官在“让5G与明天相关”的小组讨论中发言时，都在为明年推出5G服务做准备，希望从政府中获得频谱价格的缓解。乐动娱乐招聘
印度沃达丰Idea呼吁政府支持初创公司和系统集成商(SI)大规模部署Open RAN，而其竞争对手Bharti AirtelOpen RAN支持的相互功能可以用于基于新的工程原理构建和部署创新应用程序。
的电信部不过，该公司并未提及监管机构印度电信监管局尽管在2021年3月进行的频谱拍卖中，令人垂涎的频段未售出，但该公司(TRAI)仍对基准价格进行了调整。
“展望未来，如果TRAI能够拍卖c波段频谱(3.3GHz至3.6GHz)，并确保对700MHz的竞标，这将使电信公司增加网络容量和覆盖范围。然后，电信公司也可以确保价格处于有助于平衡需求和网络容量的水平。”

<\/figure>NEW DELHI: 4G technology will continue to play a significant role in the Indian telecom market even after fifth-generation or 5G<\/a> technology is launched here, said a top executive of global network testing firm Ookla<\/a>.
\u201c4G is already the dominant network technology in India and will continue to play a significant role in the market for some years, even after the launch of 5G\u2026 We have also observed some recent performance improvements in terms of 4G speeds as operators have deployed more spectrum resources following spectrum auctions held in March this year,\u201d Doug Suttles, CEO, GM & Co-founder, Ookla, told ETTelecom.
According to data by Ookla, 4G availability is growing in the country, with the \u20184G Service\u2019 metric (percentage of known operator locations where a device has access to 4G-LTE) increasing from 93.5% in Q4 2020 to 96% in Q2 2021.
<\/div><\/div>Overall, the median download speeds increased from 10.64 Mbps in Q1 2020, to 15.67 Mbps in Q2 2021, Suttles said highlighting that India ranks 122nd globally in terms of mobile network speeds (as of July 2021).
In terms of data usage, India ranks amongst the regions with the highest mobile data usage per smartphone globally, at 14.6GB per month, according to Swedish telecom gear maker Ericsson<\/a>\u2019s latest Mobility Report. This is higher than the global average of 9GB per month.
\u201cThe data indicates that the market is in a very strong position to drive the uptake of 5G services when they are launched in India, catering to the faster speeds that the market demands,\" Suttles said.
Furthermore, the rapid adoption of 5G services in the market is likely to be driven by Open Radio Access Network (Open RAN), Dynamic Spectrum Sharing (DSS), and affordable 5G handsets, he said.
Indian and global telcos alike are banking on Open RAN as a viable way to slash down the costs involved in building and maintaining a 5G network.
