Wireless infrastructures have emerged as an effective option of connecting to an ever-evolving expansive information network such as the Internet. Such infrastructures, due to their inherent advantages, promise a renewed future in terms of offering improved and exciting services to the existing users. As a result, stakeholders are willing to encourage the success of such infrastructures supporting “Internet on the move”.
This promise is not without a concrete platform. In the recent past, there have been ground-breaking innovations such as 3G, WiMax and the like that could support disparate forms of content. The practicality of their implementation resulting into improved usage is yet to be witnessed, however. Similar developments have been witnessed in the domain of devices that are designed to support such networks. There is a parallel and equitable importance of providing relevant content using the devices and the underlying infrastructure. Given the high capabilities, a wide variety of content can be provided to the users. Considering the absence of deployable infrastructure and upcoming developments in bandwidth auction, the jury is going to be out there for some time. On the demand side, our current estimates show that there are 2 Mn users that actively access Internet on any form of mobile devices. These users are matured Internet users and are fairly young (18-35 years). Understandably, in the existing scenario, there is a need for a major fillip in ensuring the deployment and success of mobile Internet infrastructure.
This report details the existing scenario in the domain of mobile Internet, the drivers that could further the growth and the future trends that could be witnessed in the coming years.
