On May 8, it was reported that recently, Mobile Experts, a market research agency, released the "2023 Global Top RAN Vendor Market Report".
The report ranks Ericsson as the world's largest supplier of RAN equipment, with a market share of 36.9%, compared to only 5.5% and 5% of Huawei and ZTE, respectively.
However, this conclusion is mainly based on the agency's deliberate exclusion of the Chinese market from its analysis.
Joe Madden, principal analyst at Mobile Experts, said, "Chinese suppliers only have a small share of the market outside of China, and I don't really think they're a significant player when it comes to markets outside of China. Therefore, we ignore them in our analysis. ”
In stark contrast to Mobile Experts, Dell'Oro Group, a well-known market research organization, pointed out in a report released in February this year that the top 5 RAN vendors in the global market are Huawei, Ericsson, Nokia, ZTE and Samsung, and both Huawei and ZTE's global revenue share is increasing.
