Summary of Smart Transportation

Core Content

Smart transportation is a transformative sector that leverages Internet of Things (IoT) technologies to address key issues in modern mobility, including traffic safety, congestion, and environmental impact. It is seen as a critical component of the digital economy and is expected to bring significant improvements in safety, productivity, efficiency, and quality of life. The report outlines the value proposition of smart transportation and explores its future potential, focusing on four major vertical markets: connected cars, smart parking, Emergency Service Network (ESN), and V2X and autonomous driving.

The report highlights that MNOs (Mobile Network Operators) have unique opportunities and advantages to participate in these markets, particularly through the provision of data services, network infrastructure, and partnerships with key stakeholders. The analysis emphasizes that MNOs can not only serve as traditional network providers but also take on more strategic roles in shaping the future of smart transportation.

Main Points

1. Value Proposition of Smart Transportation

• Safety: Connected cars and V2X technologies are designed to reduce accidents caused by human error through features like collision avoidance and real-time navigation.
• Productivity and Efficiency: Smart transportation reduces traffic congestion, which has a significant impact on economic productivity and logistics costs.
• Environmental Friendliness: Transportation contributes to greenhouse gas emissions, and smart solutions aim to reduce these through optimized routing and fuel efficiency.
• Better Life Quality: Smart transportation can reduce commute times, improve passenger experience, and allow for more flexible and enjoyable travel, especially with the rise of autonomous and shared mobility.

Key Opportunities for MNOs

1. Connected Cars

• Four Stages of Connected Cars:

  1. Connect to the Internet – Focus on in-car entertainment and infotainment.
  2. Connect to Remote Services – Focus on telematics, remote diagnostics, and vehicle monitoring.
  3. Connect to Immediate Surroundings – Focus on driving safety with V2I, V2V, and V2P.
  4. Fully Connected – Focus on full V2X connectivity and autonomous driving.

• Market Potential: The connected car market is expected to reach $145 billion in 2022, with significant growth in telematics services, UBI (Usage Based Insurance), and Fleet Management.

  • UBI: Expected to grow from 5.5 million users in 2013 to 107 million in 2018, with a CAGR of 80%.
  • Fleet Management: Projected to reach $21 billion in 2022, offering real-time visibility into vehicle performance and operations.

• MNOs' Role:

  • MNOs can provide B2B data plans for in-car entertainment and telematics.
  • They can partner with OEMs, TSPs, and device manufacturers to expand their offerings.
  • MNOs have advantages such as a larger customer base, mature sales channels, and strong data security capabilities.
  • MNOs can enhance their capabilities through acquisitions or partnerships with telematics providers.

• Challenges:

  • Lower bargaining power and limited industry knowledge are potential disadvantages for MNOs in the telematics space.
  • MNOs need to establish partnerships with OEMs to gain discourse power and influence the development of telematics in the built-in market.

2. Smart Parking

• Market Growth: Smart parking is expected to continue growing, especially as part of smart city initiatives.
• Technology: NB-IoT (Narrow-Band IoT) is a cost-effective and widely applicable solution for smart parking.
• MNOs' Role:
  • MNOs can become end-to-end service providers by partnering with government authorities.
  • The upgrade of network infrastructure benefits the overall smart city development and can be leveraged to provide parking solutions.

3. Emergency Service Network (ESN)

• Need for ESN: Traditional ESNs are outdated and cannot meet the demands of homeland security and emergency services.

• MNOs' Role:

  • MNOs can provide LTE-based ESN solutions that are cost-effective and high-quality.
  • In countries without ESN, MNOs should lobby governments to recognize the importance of ESN.
  • In countries with ESN, MNOs can improve service quality and reduce costs to gain more business opportunities.
  • In countries with limited spectrum, MNOs can exchange network resources with the government for mutual benefit.

• Market Potential: The global wireless network market in the area of national security is expected to reach $22.9 billion in 2020.

Strategic Recommendations for MNOs

• Beyond Connectivity: MNOs should move beyond being mere network providers and take on more strategic roles in smart transportation.
• Participation in Standards and Networks: MNOs should actively participate in the development of technical standards and network infrastructure for V2X and autonomous driving.
• Lobbying and Partnerships: MNOs should lobby governments for legislation and standard selection support, and establish partnerships with OEMs and solution providers to offer comprehensive services.
• Invest in Data Analytics: MNOs can leverage data collection and analytics to support OEMs and provide better customer experiences.

Conclusion

Smart transportation presents a significant opportunity for MNOs to expand their business beyond traditional connectivity services. By leveraging their network technology, customer base, and data security capabilities, MNOs can play a crucial role in telematics, V2X, smart parking, and ESN. The report encourages MNOs to think strategically and innovate to lead the smart transportation transformation and create more value in the evolving market.
