摘要

5G时代(及以后)潜在的基础设施共享商业模式的成本效益如何?如果我们要根据联合国可持续发展目标的具体目标9.1提供普遍负担得起的宽带,就需要解决这一重大问题。尽管全球近三分之二的人口已经联网,但许多用户仍然无法获得高速可靠的宽带连接。事实上,一些最大的连通性问题与那些生活在经济可行性较低地区的人有关。因此,本评估使用技术-经济评估框架评估不同基础设施共享业务模型的成本含义。结果表明,与其他共享策略相比,农村5G中立主机网络(NHN)策略有助于将总成本降低10%至50%。我们还发现,与无共享的基线策略相比,农村5G共享策略的净现值可以赚取30%至90%的利润。使用各种共享策略的网络升级到5G对每用户平均收入、采用率和现有站点基础设施数量的变化最为敏感。例如,本研究的结果表明,与不共享策略相比,20%的需求收入变化估计会使共享策略的净现值增加2-5倍。同样,现有基础设施每增加10%,净现值就会降低8-30%。本研究中概述的基础设施共享战略有可能提高网络的可行性,同时弥合偏远地区和农村地区的数字鸿沟。

Techno-economic assessment of 5G infrastructure sharing business models in rural areas
How cost-efficient are potential infrastructure sharing business models for the 5G era (and beyond)? This significant question needs to be addressed if we are to deliver universal affordable broadband in line with Target 9.1 of the UN Sustainable Development Goals. Although almost two-thirds of the global population is now connected, many users still lack access to high-speed and reliable broadband connectivity. Indeed, some of the largest connectivity issues are associated with those living in areas of low economic viability. Consequently, this assessment evaluates the cost implications of different infrastructure sharing business models using a techno-economic assessment framework. The results indicate that a rural 5G neutral host network (NHN) strategy helps to reduce total cost between 10 and 50% compared with other sharing strategies. We also find that, compared to a baseline strategy with No Sharing , the net present value of rural 5G sharing strategies can earn between 30 and 90% more profit. The network upgrades to 5G using various sharing strategies are most sensitive to changes in the average revenue per user, the adoption rate, and the amount of existing site infrastructure. For example, the results from this study show that a 20% variation in demand revenue is estimated to increase the net present value of the sharing strategies by 2–5 times compared to the No Sharing strategy. Similarly, a 10% increase in existing infrastructure lowers the net present value by 8–30%. The infrastructure sharing strategies outlined in this study have the potential to enhance network viability while bridging the digital divide in remote and rural locations.
