Road and rail: connectivity and telco services driving smart mobility
This report is available to those subscribed to the IoT & Enterprise module.
IoT, 5G, C-V2X, Wi-Fi and short-range connectivity technologies are making their way into cars, enabling around 50 different connected car services that aim to make the experience for drivers and passengers safer and more enjoyable. This presents an area of opportunity for connectivity service providers, including mobile network operators.
Beyond smart mobility services, the shift to electric vehicles and need for charging infrastructure are also generating opportunities for the mobile and IoT ecosystems. This analysis details the specific connectivity and service needs, and highlights examples of activities among telecoms operators in this area.
Meanwhile, in rail, FRMCS is a 5G technology that will soon be introduced in across Europe and worldwide. This report looks at expected service offerings for FRMCS and tracks the progress of the railway supplier ecosystem ahead of policy mandates.
The research ends with a series of case studies showing how Telenor, SK Telecom and Verizon are positioning themselves in the mobility and transport market.

Connectivity trends in robotics: 5G and cellular IoT are only just emerging
From a telecoms perspective, robotics was recognised early on as a key future use case during the planning and rollout of 5G around seven years ago. With 5G-Advanced now commercially deployed in early-adopter countries, it is timely to evaluate 5G’s real-world impact on robotics. We also explore how complementary technologies such as edge computing, IoT and eSIM are shaping the connectivity landscape.
