Research and Markets has announced the addition of the "Wireless Network Data Traffic in Developed Asia-Pacific: Trends and Forecasts 2016-2021 " report to their offering.

"Some of the most advanced telecoms markets in the world are in developed Asia-Pacific and traffic trends there can indicate future trends in other regions."

Growth rates of cellular data traffic will decline over the next few years in developed Asia-Pacific (DVAP). This report examines the extent of this trend and the different drivers and inhibitors of growth in DVAP, focusing individually on Hong Kong, Japan, South Korea and Taiwan.

This report provides:

• 5-year forecasts of wireless data traffic for DVAP as a whole, and for selected countries
• Worldwide context and specific country commentary for four key countries: Hong Kong, Japan, South Korea and Taiwan
• Analysis of the key trends in, and drivers and inhibitors of, data traffic
• A discussion of the enablers of future capacity on wireless networks and the cost of supplying that capacity
• Analysis of the trends in private and public usage, and their effect on the use of mobile and Wi-Fi connectivity.
