Research and Markets has announced the addition of the "Long-Term Evolution (LTE) and the Market for Mobile Broadband" report to their offering.

With spectrum already allocated, public safety agencies in the Middle East and the U.S have already begun to operate private LTE networks. This report estimates that the installed base of private public safety LTE base stations (eNode Bs) will reach nearly 80,000 globally by the end of 2017, following a CAGR of nearly 80% between 2012 and 2017, and will serve more than 1 Million private public safety LTE subscribers worldwide.

However it is important to note that the transition to LTE is one of the will be one of the most complex technical changes the public safety communications industry will ever witness and will present challenges in its own rights. Furthermore spectrum, regulatory and budgetary issues in certain regions such as Europe will delay large scale deployments.
