Juniper Research published a report earlier today in which it claims that the mobile traffic generated between 2015 and 2019 will be almost 197,000 petabytes. However, 41% of this traffic won’t actually pass through a cellular network. It will, instead, be processed via Wi-Fi.
“Wi-Fi is not just being used for data offload, but also to maintain call connection quality in challenging network topologies. For example, EE UK launched its Wi-Fi calling feature on a selected number of handsets in April 2015,” writes research author, Nitin Bhas.
Taking this information into account, Juniper estimates that the average monthly data usage on mobile devices will double over the course of the next four years with daily media consumption continuing to rise.
“Video is forming an ever-greater proportion of network traffic. For example, Juniper Research anticipates that video traffic over smartphones will increase by nearly 8 times between 2014 and 2019”, says Bhas.
For those who are interested there is a full report available to download on Juniper’s website.
