In 2011, Ericsson, Huawei, and Alcatel-Lucent have demonstrably similar shares of the Western European LTE base station equipment market. In Eastern Europe, however, Huawei accounts for almost half the market.
By 2015, there will be over 400 thousand LTE POPs in European countries. From 2009 to 2015, the Western European LTE Packet Backhaul equipment investment by operators will account for over US$2 billion in revenue. |
