IPTV Market Dynamics:
Internet Protocol Television (IPTV) includes attractive pushing strategies presented by telecom companies, which provide basic pay-tv services at realistic prices are among key trends fuelling market growth significantly. Changing viewing preferences are boosting operators to offer superior content to customers. Service providers have started carrying content using the fiber-to-the-home (FTTH) technology that are offering unlimited bandwidth and ensures an improved viewer experience. Industry is expected to witness nonstop growth as key players are offering 4K UHD IPTV set-top-boxes to provide better picture quality. For example, MatrixStream Technologies, Inc. introduced wireless 4K HD IPTV set-top boxes that can cut down installation cost for users and rise their dependability on broadband.
Ireland's FTTH market is increasing at the fourth-fastest rate in the EU:
The number of houses in Ireland with FTTP coverage has increased from 700,000 (one third of the housing stock) to 1,044,000 (more than half). According to the MMR study research, Ireland had the fourth-highest growth rate (49%) for new dwellings in the EU 27+UK. With 224,000 subscriptions, 11% of Irish households are now FTTP-connected, up from 8% the previous year. In the year 2018, Ireland became the first country to join the FTTH Council Leader boards, with 1% of homes enjoying 100% FTTP connectivity. Since then, they have continuously ranked among the top five nations in terms of the number of households passed and the growth rate of subscribers, surpassing bigger nations like the UK & Germany.
The European Commission's Digital Economy & Society Index (DESI) report is another of several rankings of EU Member States' progress in deploying high-speed connections. The report's categories are connectivity, human capital, internet service utilisation, digital technology integration, and digital public services. Ireland continues to rank sixth overall among the EU27 including the UK, despite having the fastest five-year growth rate of any EU member state. Ireland continues to hold the top spot in terms of digital technology integration, and it ranks eighth in terms of Internet usage, ninth in terms of digital public services, 11th in terms of human capital, and 23rd in terms of connection.
In September, FTTH distributor Siro reported that in Q3 2020, there would be 80,000 subscribers, or 36% of the market, & that 343,920 households, or 20% of the homes passed in Ireland, will have been covered (Comreg Q3 2020). As of April 2021, SIRO will have more than 90,000 users and will serve 370,000 residences. In the midst of a global pandemic, FTTP Gigabit broadband is essential for maintaining connectivity across all spheres of life, including e-commerce, e-learning, e-health, and e-government. Siro is happy to support Ireland's digital agenda in this way. Ireland has transitioned to fiber at a far faster rate than other EU countries, which has helped society and economy throughout CVD-19. In Ireland, 50% of houses still lack access to fiber, thus all parties must remain committed to completing the fiber rollout. Accessible gigabit fiber broadband is no longer a luxury but a need for the smooth operation of all facets of society.
Internet protocol television (IPTV) is enabling telecom providers to collect data belong to sectors like education, finance, and healthcare. This is increasing telecom provider’s capability to influence big data services for a better understanding of consumer needs to offer products and solutions consequently. Internet protocol television (IPTV) provides a higher level of interface as compared to cable and satellite TV, which have accordingly increased its penetration rate. This is encouraging telecom providers to expand their internet broadband capacity. IPTV providers are enhancing their bandwidth capacity and upgraded their infrastructure by replacing copper wires with fiber optic lines. Accordingly, these providers now holding a high-capacity network which ensures a clear video quality and an interruption-free delivery of content. Simultaneously, telecom operators have moved to new IP networks which can integrate different protocols into a single system & deliver telephone, internet, multichannel TV, and VoD services as a single package.
Big data analytics in telecommunications:
According to a recent MMR study, a telecom provider that provides service to about 8 million prepaid mobile users produces 30 Mn CDRs (Call Detail Records) in a single day. This indicates that the number of Call Detail Records produced by such a business each year will be close to 11 Bn. However, the volume of data created will be significantly more if the same provider provides fixed lines and post-paid services. A huge amount of data is being produced by connected devices, social media networks, government portals, customer behaviour, billing information, call data records, and more. There is no denying that there has been quite an increase in data volumes over the last few years. Fortunately, telecom companies will be able to transform this challenge into an excellent opportunity with the effective utilization of big data analytics techniques. The wise use & effective analysis of the captured data will help companies to find valuable insights.
Utilizing big data analytics will be possible for businesses in the telecom sector:
More accurate customer insights: With the use of big data analytics, telecom businesses will be able to turn vast amounts of both structured & unstructured data into insightful and useful information about their customers. For instance, client-centric KPIs, targeted offers, and even the creation of 3600 customer profiles can all be done using the data given by customers.
Additionally, to provide a better customer experience, telecom contact centres will be able to apply predictive analytics, which is based on expert inputs, technical records, and consumer information.
Reducing fraud: One of the main causes of the income losses experienced by various telecom firms continues to be telecom fraud. Over 12 billion dollars a year are thought to be spent on telecom subscription fraud. To combat the problem, the majority of telecom firms have begun utilizing fraud detection technologies. Real-time identification of suspicious behavior & fraudulent clients is made possible for organizations by fraud detection systems based on data mining algorithms. Another key threat for telecom companies is IRSF (International Revenue Share Fraud). The telco lost $4 Bn as a result of IRSF, according to a recent report from the MMR. Telecom businesses can stop these losses by using IRSF detection systems.
Keeping an eye on and managing network operations: Big data analytics are already being used by the telecom sector to control and monitor network operations more efficiently. In addition, predicted capacity models will be developed using big data analytics, and these models will then be utilised to schedule network expansions. The data that provides a correlation between network capacity and network usage will be used by telecom providers to pinpoint the most congested sections of their network. When planning for capacity expansion, telecom businesses will undoubtedly find this study to be helpful.
