스마트 시티 통신 네트워크 시장 : 세계 산업 규모, 점유율, 동향, 기회, 예측 - 유형별, 용도별, 지역별, 시장 경쟁(2020-2030년)

The Global Smart City Communication Network Market was valued at USD 326 billion in 2024 and is projected to reach USD 818 billion by 2030, growing at a CAGR of 16.56% during the forecast period. This market encompasses the integrated digital infrastructure enabling seamless, real-time, and secure communication among systems, devices, and applications within a smart city environment. It functions as the digital core supporting traffic systems, energy grids, surveillance, public services, and citizen interfaces. Powered by technologies like 5G, fiber optics, low-power wide-area networks, and cloud platforms, these networks allow cities to optimize resources, enhance safety, reduce energy use, and improve urban living. The market is witnessing strong momentum due to rapid urbanization, supportive government policies, and growing demand for intelligent urban management. The emergence of 5G and edge computing further enhances network performance, scalability, and responsiveness, accelerating the adoption of smart city communication solutions globally.

Key Market Drivers

Urbanization and Infrastructure Digitization Demand

The rapid pace of urban migration is intensifying pressure on traditional municipal systems, prompting the need for advanced, connected infrastructure. As urban populations rise, cities are adopting smart technologies to efficiently manage resources such as transportation, utilities, and public services. Smart city communication networks act as central hubs, enabling real-time data exchange between traffic sensors, emergency systems, surveillance, and public connectivity tools. Expanding cities require scalable, high-performance networks to support continuous monitoring and service optimization. Governments worldwide, especially in Asia-Pacific, Europe, and the Middle East, are prioritizing digital transformation through smart city initiatives, incorporating 5G and digital grids into public infrastructure. These networks form the foundation for smart applications like adaptive traffic control and citizen services. Additionally, the increasing use of IoT-enabled urban planning and modular construction emphasizes the need for robust, secure, and low-latency communication systems. According to the United Nations Department of Economic and Social Affairs (UNDESA), 56% of the global population lived in urban areas as of 2023-a figure expected to rise to 68% by 2050-driving the need for scalable communication frameworks to support urban functionality.

Key Market Challenges

Cybersecurity and Data Privacy Vulnerabilities

A major concern in the Global Smart City Communication Network Market is the heightened risk of cybersecurity breaches and data privacy violations. These networks interconnect numerous sensors, systems, and devices, transmitting large volumes of sensitive data, such as citizen movements, facial recognition data, and emergency signals. This extensive connectivity creates a broad attack surface, making these infrastructures prime targets for hackers, cybercriminals, and state-sponsored attacks. Factors such as outdated hardware, weak encryption, inconsistent vendor protocols, and the absence of unified municipal cybersecurity standards expose these networks to significant risks. Successful cyberattacks could result in the disruption of critical services like traffic control, emergency response, and public messaging systems, ultimately threatening urban safety, trust, and operability.

Key Market Trends

Integration of Artificial Intelligence with Communication Infrastructure

The fusion of artificial intelligence (AI) with smart city communication frameworks is revolutionizing urban management. AI technologies enable instant data processing, predictive analytics, and autonomous control in systems like energy grids, traffic management, and emergency services. Integrating AI into communication networks allows for proactive responses-such as real-time traffic optimization or automated alert systems-enhancing service delivery without human involvement. These AI-driven networks improve efficiency and reduce costs by learning from sensor data and continuously refining operations. Cities are increasingly embedding AI at the network edge to enable faster, decentralized decision-making, which is critical for time-sensitive applications like public transport automation or disaster response. As AI technologies become more standardized, their integration into communication infrastructures will continue to strengthen the operational agility and resilience of smart city ecosystems.
