摘要

本研究评估了对OTT-Comm （over -top applications for communications）和传统移动语音通话的需求之间的关系。我们的工作通过利用2023年泰国移动服务消费的独特面板数据，为文献做出了贡献。观察的面板结构和短时间框架使我们能够解释假设不变的未观察到的个体异质性。我们估计静态和动态面板模型的需求在缺乏价格变量。对OTT-Comm的需求是对呼出需求的补充；但是，OTT-Comm的需求与语音通话无关。这两种服务相互关联，但不构成单一市场；因此，那些被指定在移动服务市场中拥有重要市场力量的移动运营商仍应受到监管。

An empirical analysis on relationships between over-the-top applications for communication and traditional mobile voice services

This study assesses the relationship between demand for Over-the-top applications for communications (OTT-Comm) and traditional mobile voice calls. Our work contributes to the literature by making use of a unique panel data on consumption of mobile services in Thailand in 2023. The observations’ panel structure and short timeframe allow us to account for unobserved individual heterogeneity that is assumed constant. We estimate static and dynamic panel models for demand in the absence of price variables. Demand for OTT-Comm is found to complement demand for outgoing calls; however, demand for OTT-Comm is found to be independent from voice calls. Both services are interrelated but do not constitute a single market; therefore, mobile operators who were designated to possess significant market power in the mobile service markets should still be regulated.
