Market Analysis and Exploitation

  • Chapter
  • First Online:
User-Centric Networking

Abstract

This paper goes through different business exploitation opportunities that may arise around User-centric Wireless Local Loop—ULOOP-project [1] concepts. This market analysis takes as a starting point the initial approach covered by “D2.2: ULOOP socio-economic sustainability report” [2], a public document released during the first year of the project. On top of this deliverable, a deeper analysis on operators’ (incl. service providers) market opportunities is performed. Additionally, other telco market stakeholders’ perspective, like infrastructure and device vendors’, is considered.
