Iot Benefits and Growth Opportunities for the Telecom Industry: Key Technology Drivers for Companies
暫譯: 物聯網對電信產業的好處與成長機會：企業的關鍵技術驅動因素
Sabourin, Vincent, Jabo, Jordan Tito
商品描述
This critical and forward-looking book features:
- An assessment of the impact of Internet of Things (IoT) on the telecom industry's revenue streams
- IoT-based business models in the telecom industry
- A PESTLE (political, economic, socio-cultural, technological, legal, and environmental) analysis of the industry in relation to IoT
- Key technological drivers.
It also features a case study of Bell Canada Enterprises (BCE) Inc., which highlights IoT-based business models in the industry. The study reveals that telecom operators have started implementing IoT projects, however, true revenue streams are yet to materialize. Ten IoT-based business models have been identified at BCE Inc. The book points out that operators do leverage existing infrastructure in terms of broadband fiber and mobile connectivity in part and resort to partnerships and acquisitions to acquire much-needed knowledge, technology, and smart devices. Concerning the effect of IoT on the telecoms' revenue streams, it was revealed that new entrants, who are not necessarily in the telecom industry, have impacted the old players' revenue streams. OTT services like YouTube, WhatsApp, IPTV, Netflix, are the biggest culprits. Seven key technological drivers for IoT have been identified and include widespread wireless connectivity, the availability and affordability of microcontrollers, sensors and actuators, the decreasing cost of bandwidth, the recent implementation of IPv6, and the ongoing development of 5G network, as well as the use of cloud computing and analytics.
Finally, the PESTLE analysis of the industry shows that the lack of a comprehensive political and regulatory framework still slows down IoT deployment. Interoperability, security, and privacy concerns are other constraints. Conversely, general economic conditions in most developed and developing economies are favorable to the advancement of IoT technology. Governments are willing to subsidize R&D and have partnered with the private sector to speed up the roll-out process.
商品描述(中文翻譯)
這本關鍵且具前瞻性的書籍包含以下內容：
- 對物聯網 (IoT) 對電信產業收入來源影響的評估
- 電信產業中的基於 IoT 的商業模式
- 與 IoT 相關的產業 PESTLE（政治、經濟、社會文化、技術、法律和環境）分析
- 主要技術驅動因素
書中還包含了對貝爾加拿大企業 (Bell Canada Enterprises, BCE) 的案例研究，突顯了該產業中的基於 IoT 的商業模式。研究顯示，電信運營商已開始實施 IoT 項目，然而，真正的收入來源尚未顯現。BCE Inc. 確定了十種基於 IoT 的商業模式。書中指出，運營商確實在某種程度上利用現有的基礎設施，如寬頻光纖和行動連接，並依賴夥伴關係和收購來獲取急需的知識、技術和智慧設備。關於 IoT 對電信收入來源的影響，研究顯示，並非電信產業的新進者已影響舊有玩家的收入來源。像 YouTube、WhatsApp、IPTV 和 Netflix 等 OTT 服務是最大的罪魁禍首。已確定七個 IoT 的主要技術驅動因素，包括廣泛的無線連接、微控制器、感測器和執行器的可用性和可負擔性、帶寬成本的下降、最近實施的 IPv6、持續發展的 5G 網路，以及雲計算和分析的使用。
最後，產業的 PESTLE 分析顯示，缺乏全面的政治和監管框架仍然減緩了 IoT 的部署。互操作性、安全性和隱私問題是其他限制因素。相對而言，大多數發達和發展中經濟體的一般經濟條件對 IoT 技術的進步是有利的。各國政府願意補貼研發，並與私營部門合作以加速推廣過程。
