5G, as an advanced communication and next-generation technology, is designed to offer enhanced users experience in several domains including ultra-high seamless video calling, definition video, virtual reality, and augmented reality. In a bid to ensure sustainability in an intense competitive environment, various producers are constantly developed using technology modification to rise their overall operational efficiency, productivity, and reduce costs of various industries. The constant emphasis on enhancing energy management and monitoring, combined with the demand to have better control over the distribution network and energy generation present some key aspects of the overall market expansion. Among industries, the adoption of 5G technology is widely prevailed in the healthcare industry especially in developed economies, which has resulted to offer several advantages such as effective surgeries to the patients and safety remote diagnosis. Thus, to provide constant data connectivity in remote patient surgeries, the demand for next-generation technology and related infrastructure is constantly increasing.

The COVID-19 pandemic outbreak is expected to slow down in the execution or installation of the 5G infrastructure due to emergency lockdown and other factors. The pandemic has brought the disturbance in further testing and trials required for examining the processing performance and stability of 5G standalone networks. The pandemic has additional effect on telecom regulatory authorities due to delaying their strategies of the 5G spectrum conveyance, thus, causing unfavorably impacting the market growth. For instance, governments in a few key countries such as Spain, France, and Australia have, for the time being, delayed the spectrum conveyance on various frequencies including mmWave and Sub-6 GHz. In addition, there have been a sharp decline in the exports of telecom for 5G new radios in major economies such as the U.S. and China that brought some vital challenges to the global market expansion.

Market Trends, Drivers, Restraints, and Opportunities

• Wide applications of 5G technology across various industries and growing investing on provisioning healthcare facilities are projected to boost the market expansion during the forecast period. 
• Rising demand for next-generation technology and related infrastructure to provide instant and constant data connectivity between various end-users and consumers are expected to drive the market growth.
• 5G technology is expected to enhance users experience in using various digital platforms and communicative devices. This is one of the major factors driving the market growth.
