Global Operator Network speed up 2G/3G network shutdown process
Europe is experiencing more sunsets in 3G than 2G. A total of 19 operators in 14 nations
plan to switch off 3G by 2025, whereas only eight operators in eight countries are planning
Europe a 2G switch off by same time. The sunset saga in the region started with Net1 being the
01 3G eclipse first operator to completely shut down its 3G networks in Denmark and Sweden in 2015,
followed by Vodafone Ziggo in 2020, then Telenor Norway and Swisscom in 2021. Though
Completed and Planned Sunsets 3G is newer, it is still retiring in the region because 2G has dished out a notable edge,
especially for M2M and IoT services in countries including Germany, Finland, and Belgium.

( 2015-2025 ) The Americas is on a different path from Europe, focused towards turning 2G off: there has
not been a single 3G closure. The region, an early adopter of new technology generations,
30 has seen 13 operators across five countries launching their 5G networks, making it vital to

Goodbye 2G have the required spectrum to foster the services. Here we expect 15 operators in seven
countries to switch off their 2G network by the end of 2025. Putting the best foot forward, the
operators are re-using their existing spectrum from 2G to fill in the demand for 4G and 5G
networks

Service providers in the region are vying to retain their 3G networks and
shutting down 2G instead to employ the infrastructure for 4G, which has high

adoption. By the end of 2025, we expect 29 operators to shut down 2G and
16 operators to close 3G with Taiwan currently the only market which has
witnessed both 2G and 3G sunsets, in 2017 and 2018 respectively.

negligible number of sunsets have been announced. Of course, as demand rises,

we would expect operators would have to plan for them in future.

*As on March 2021


The region has been quick enough to migrate to newer generation networks as 5G services
are available in four countries, whereas others are testing the network for commercial
deployments. Today, 2G networks account for only 5 per cent of total connections, having

Precedence for 2G
very small amount of traffic across the region. As a result of this trend, Australia, the biggest
market in the region, completed its 2G network sunset in 2018. Though operators have not
announced their network sunset plans, we expect the region to see more 2G than 3G
closures, based on representative shares.

NTN Application
1. For customers, taking advantage of the strong coverage capability of NTN network, we can theoretically build a full-time public emergency
communication network based on mobile phone direct connection, provide ubiquitous communication network services, create global ubiquitous
connections in remote areas, oceans, civil aviation, and provide full scene services such as SMS, voice, Internet of things, public emergency
communications, wide area Internet of things, etc.

2. Facing the industry, through the deep integration of the two major industry chains of cellular communications and satellite communications, the
form of IoT terminals connected to satellites will develop in the direction of low cost, miniaturization, low power consumption and other ease of use,
so that smartphones can be directly connected to satellites, resulting in economies of scale and driving down the price of satellite connections.

3. For operators, it provides a low-cost and wide coverage scheme, which does not need to build and maintain cellular base stations in remote areas
with sparse users, sea surface and other areas, which can significantly reduce the number of base stations and centralized deployment, thereby
reducing the network construction and operation and maintenance costs of operators.
