Market Trends of Public Safety LTE Industry

Disaster Management End-user Application is Expected to Hold Significant Market Share

  • Disaster management applications play a significant role in the public safety LTE market by enhancing public safety and agencies' capabilities and first responders' preparation for, response to, and recovery from various disasters and emergencies. These applications leverage LTE networks' high-speed, reliable, and prioritized communication capabilities to improve coordination, situational awareness, and overall disaster response.
  • The disaster management applications leverage the robust and secure communication capabilities of PSLET networks to enhance the efficiency and effectiveness of public safety agencies and first responders in dealing with emergencies.
  • LTE networks enable real-time voice and data communication for first responders, dispatchers, and emergency management personnel. This includes push-to-talk (PPT) services, text messaging, and video conferencing to facilitate rapid communication during disasters.
  • Public safety LTE networks support sharing real-time data, images, video, and sensor information among agencies and responders. This enhances situational awareness and enables informed decision-making during emergencies.
  • The ongoing technological advancements, including the development of disaster management applications, sensors, drones, and wearable devices, drive the adoption of disaster management applications in public safety LTE. These innovations enhance responders' capabilities and improve disaster management efforts' effectiveness. According to Cisco Systems, North America will have the most 5G connections made using wearable devices in 2022. The 439 million connections in North America would be 222 million more than those made to 4G networks in 2017. In North America and Asia Pacific, wearables are forecasted to account for around 70 percent of the wearable 5G connections globally in 2022.

Europe is Expected to Hold Significant Market Share

  • The European PSLTE market is expected to grow steadily due to increased public safety and disaster management investments. Several European countries were actively deploying or planning public safety LTE networks to enhance their public safety capabilities.
  • Many European countries have launched national initiatives to modernize public safety communication networks. These initiatives aimed to replace legacy systems with advanced PSTEL networks that offer improved coverage, capacity, and interoperability. The companies in the European region are focusing on making extensive investments in their research and development to drive the innovations in the core, application, and devices required to manage the special needs of public safety LTE solutions.
  • In addition to public safety, the regional companies are extending their portfolio by targeting to deploy an advanced communication network for the national critical infrastructure for communications and collaboration solutions. In October 2022, Digi International recently announced its Digi SAFE all-in-one connectivity solution for public safety and transportation agencies.
  • Moreover, in June 2022, France is getting ready to deploy a public-safety broadband network. The network's deployment will begin towards the end of 2023, concentrating on the areas hosting the 2024 Olympics in France. The RRF's final deployment is scheduled for the end of 2026.
  • Such initiatives are expected to be carried out by other countries in the region, including Italy and France. Hence, the public safety LTE market includes a significant growth opportunity in the forecast period.
