\"The biggest challenge before the industry<\/a> in the next five years would be to meet the growing demand of data communications and support billions of machines or things to communicate, it would not only require huge investments in the digital communication infrastructure,\" Ram Sewak Sharma<\/a>, chairman, Telecom Regulatory Authority of India<\/a> (Trai<\/a>) said at the ET Global Townhall.
Sharma further said that efforts to meet growing mobile data surge would also require close cooperation at the horizontal level with other sectors of the economy, and multiple sector regulators need to collaborate to support the digital transformation of various industries.
The telecom infrastructure, according to him, would be a critical component of connectivity since digital would be a mainstay.
The data traffic is likely to triple, reaching 21 EB (exabytes) per month in 2025, according to a new finding.
Following the disruptive entry of billionaire Mukesh Ambani-owned Jio in 2016, the heightened telecom sector rivalry triggered India's mobile data pricing to hit a bottom worldwide.
On average, Indians used 12 GB data per month, the highest consumption globally. The trend is expected to rise even further to about 25 GB (gigabytes) per month by 2025, a recent study by Swedish Ericsson said.
The regulator believes that the telecom industry is no more vertical but it's actually a horizontal platform on which all sectors of the economy would ride.
\"The most critical area, which we have to look into, is digital connectivity. I think we should employ all kinds of technologies, business models, and investments, whatever is required to be done in order to ensure that we put single-handedly, single-mindedly our focus on improving digital connectivity, and that is what is going to yield us rich dividends in future, he said.
The sectoral watchdog also belive that telecom networks should have open networks, and it has previously mooted the concept of open architecture-based public Wi-Fi grid to bring down the cost of the internet.
\"My belief is that given the scale and the numbers which we have and given the price-sensitive market, which we have, I think open architecture-based solutions, even in telecom are going to become the most appropriate solutions for our country,\" Sharma said.
\"An open architecture is possible. Actually the framework which we proposed to the government is one such open architecture based protocol. The vision of this initiative is to establish an open architecture based Wi-Fi access<\/a> network that will allow small entrepreneurs to set up and maintain access points,\" he added.
For India to become the ideal destination for global manufacturing in the post-pandemic world, Sharma said that the country should adopt the right policies and allow enough incentive to the manufacturing sector.
\"I believe government policies relating to electronics and local handset manufacturing have paid rich dividends, but more needs to be done, particularly in the area of domestic manufacturing of telecom equipment and ensure further value addition, Trai chief said.
The manufacturing of telecom gear, according to him, is strategically important for India, and it should be ensured that such critical equipment would be manufactured domestically.
Trai had recommended that India should aim to achieve the objective of net-zero import of telecom equipment by 2022, as a part of its views on promoting local telecom equipment manufacturing released in August 2018.

”前的最大挑战行业在未来五年将是满足数据通信的日益增长的需求和支持数以十亿美元计的机器或沟通的事情,它不仅需要巨额投资在数字通信基础设施,“Ram Sewak沙玛主席,印度电信管理部门(火车)说,全球对话等。
Sharma进一步说,努力满足不断增长的移动数据飙升也需要密切合作的水平与其他经济部门的水平,和多个部门监管机构需要合作来支持各种行业的数字转换。

数据流量可能是三倍,达到每月21 EB (EB)在2025年,根据一项新的发现。
破坏性的条目后,亿万富翁穆克什Ambani-owned Jio早在2016年,印度电信行业竞争加剧引发全球的移动数据价格触底。

监管机构认为,电信行业不再是垂直的,但它实际上是一个水平的平台所有经济部门的旅程。
“最关键的领域,我们必须考虑,是数字连接。我认为我们应该使用各种技术,商业模式,和投资,需要做的事,以确保我们把一手,我们一心一意地专注于改善数字连接,这就是我们丰富的收益在未来,他说。
行业监管机构也相信电信网络应该有开放的网络,它曾提出开放的概念架构的公共wi - fi网格中来降低网络的成本。
“我的信念是,考虑到规模和数量,并考虑到对价格敏感的市场,我们有,我认为开放架构的解决方案中,即使在电信将成为我国最合适的解决方案,”Sharma说。
“一个开放的体系结构是可能的。实际上我们向政府提出的框架就是这样一个基于开放式体系结构的协议。这一行动的愿景是建立一个基于开放式体系结构无线上网网络,让小企业家建立和维持接入点,”他补充道。
印度成为全球制造业的理想目的地在世界大流行后,Sharma说,国家应该采取正确的政策,允许足够的制造业的动机。
“我认为政府政策有关电子和当地手机制造获利丰厚,但是需要做更多的工作,特别是在国内制造的电信设备和确保进一步增加价值,火车首席说。
电信设备的制造,根据他的说法,印度具有重要的战略意义,它应该确保这些关键设备将在国内生产的。
印度火车曾建议应该致力于实现的目标零进口电信设备,到2022年,作为它的一部分意见促进当地电信设备制造业2018年8月发布。
