According to the report, More than 80 % of the revenue will potentially accrue to major vendors such as Ericsson, Alcatel-Lucent, Nokia Siemens Networks and Huawei. The 4G LTE market in particular will reach over $13 Billion by 2015, growing at CAGR of over 45 %. Ericsson and Alcatel Lucent are likely to lead the market with present market shares of over 35 % and 27 % respectively, of the $ 2.1 Billion Industry respectively.
