프라이빗 5G/4G 네트워크 구축 : 추적 조사 및 예측(2026-2030년)

Synopsis

Historically a niche segment of the wider wireless telecommunications industry, private 5G/4G cellular networks – also referred to as NPNs (Non-Public Networks) in 3GPP terminology – have rapidly gained popularity in recent years due to privacy, security, reliability and performance advantages over public mobile networks and competing wireless technologies as well as their potential to replace hardwired connections with non-obstructive wireless links.

Private cellular networks are continuing their upward trajectory with deployments targeting a multitude of use cases across various industries. These range from localized wireless systems for dedicated connectivity in factories, warehouses, mines, power plants, hydropower dams, substations, offshore wind farms, oil and gas facilities, construction sites, maritime ports, airports, hospitals, stadiums, office buildings and university campuses to regional and nationwide sub-1 GHz private wireless broadband networks for utilities, FRMCS (Future Railway Mobile Communication System)-ready networks for train-to-ground communications and hybrid government-commercial public safety broadband networks. Custom-built cellular systems have also been implemented in locations as remote as Antarctica. Looking beyond Earth, NASA – through its Lunar 3GPP project – plans to deploy a private cellular network on the Moon's surface to connect astronauts, vehicles and scientific instruments during the Artemis V crewed landing mission, which is targeted for late 2028.

The expanding influence of the private network market is evident from the use of both permanent networks and portable network-in-a-box systems for professional TV broadcasting, enhanced fan engagement and gameplay operations at major sports and special events, including the deployment of private 5G networks for enhanced broadcasting and event operations at stadiums hosting the 2026 FIFA World Cup. Examples of other events supported by private networks include the 2026, 2025 and 2024 PGA Championships, 2025 Phoenix Open, 2026 Kentucky Derby, 2026 and 2025 Formula One Australian Grand Prix, 2025 MotoGP Japanese Grand Prix, SailGP's 2026 and 2025 Seasons, 2025 and 2023 Ryder Cups, Ski Cross World Cup, FIS Nordic World Ski Championships, FISU World University Games, Diamond League, International Island Games, Sukma Games, North West 200 Motorcycle Race, Tour de France, Paris Summer Olympics, World Rowing Cup, Belgian Cup, UEFA European Football Championship, English Premier League, Bundesliga, UFL (United Football League), NFL (National Football League) and MLB (Major League Baseball) games, as well as the 2026 London New Year’s Eve fireworks display and the Republican and Democratic National Conventions in the lead-up to the 2024 United States presidential election. Rapidly deployable private cellular networks have also been utilized for enhanced communications in UN (United Nations) humanitarian missions, disaster relief operations and military exercises such as the JIFX (Joint Interagency Field Experimentation) program hosted by the Naval Postgraduate School; Washington Air National Guard’s Exercise Phoenix Dawn; Italian Navy’s OPEX (Operational Experimentation) 2-25 in the Gulf of Taranto; German Army's urban warfare training drills; Norwegian military’s Joint Viking exercise in the Arctic Circle; SABAK, a joint exercise of the Philippine Army and USARPAC (U.S. Army Pacific) forces; U.S. Marine Corps’ Steel Knight and ITX (Integrated Training Exercise); JGSDF’s (Japan Ground Self-Defense Force) Nankai Rescue disaster response training drill; and REPMUS, an unmanned systems experimentation exercise led by the Portuguese Navy.

SNS Telecom & IT projects that global spending on private 5G and 4G LTE network infrastructure for vertical industries will grow at a CAGR of approximately 18% between 2026 and 2029, eventually exceeding $7.8 billion by the end of 2029. More than 80% of these investments – an estimated $6.6 billion – will be directed towards the buildout of standalone private 5G networks, which are rapidly becoming the preferred wireless communications medium for workforce connectivity, automation and AI applications in enterprise campuses and industrial facilities. The adoption of physical AI is particularly pronounced, with many industrial giants relying on private 5G-connected AGVs (Automated Guided Vehicles), AMRs (Autonomous Mobile Robots), drones, cranes, forklifts, mining vehicles, quadruped robots and even semi-humanoid systems for tasks such as the autonomous transportation of loads ranging from raw materials and parts to assembled vehicles and heavy steel slabs, remote-controlled dozing in mining operations, high-bay inventory counting, visual inspections for predictive maintenance, unmanned security patrols and dual-arm object manipulation. Alongside localized network deployments, critical communications over wide geographic areas is a distinct but equally important growth pillar for private 5G/4G adoption, as defense forces, public safety agencies, railways, utilities and critical infrastructure operators transition from P25, TETRA, GSM-R and other legacy narrowband systems to mission-critical broadband networks. The continued momentum behind these investments is likely to transform the private RAN, mobile core and transport network segments into an almost parallel equipment ecosystem to public mobile operator infrastructure in terms of market size in the coming years. By the mid-2030s, private networks could account for as much as a third of all mobile network infrastructure spending.
