This special CTIA Insight report on investment and infrastructure build-out reviews capital investment in the U.S. wireless industry, including the historical breakout of capital investment between system and non-system investment, trends in capital investment per subscriber, and capital investment per cell site.

The report also provides data on subscribers per channel, break-outs by digital and analog channel loading, and cell sites per switch. In addition, data on employee productivity, including subscribers per employee and revenues per employee is included in the report.

This special CTIA Insight report is based on CTIA’s semi-annual survey, which has been conducted since January 1985, and includes all forms of “commercial mobile radio service” providers, serving more than 95.9% of all U.S. wireless users.

Since 1985, CTIA has issued the most comprehensive periodic report on the wireless industry. Rather than a sampling, it is the actual data for 96 percent of the industry on subjects such as numbers of subscribers, revenues, cell sites, and the average monthly bill for consumers. In addition to the information released to the public, CTIA has also historically collected other information that was provided by the wireless companies participating in the survey. The additional information is collected in a report entitled "Wireless Industry Indices: Semi-Annual Data Survey Results, A Comprehensive Report from CTIA Analyzing the U.S. Wireless Industry." The information includes:

• Data service usage and revenues
• Minutes of Use
• Disconnects
• Vertical Service Revenues
• Incremental Capital Investment and Network Build-out Statistics
• Wireless vs. Wireline Comparisons

The subscription includes the most recent Wireless Industry Indices Report (Mid-Year 2009) and your choice of a past or future report from the drop-down list above.

CTIA has officially released the latest edition of the Wireless Industry Indices report - an in-depth analysis of the mid-year 2009 semi-annual data survey results. CTIA has conducted the data survey since January 1985.

The latest issue of the Wireless Industry Indices report updates comparisons between wireless services and selected data from the wireline local (ILEC and CLEC) and interexchange service markets. The report includes sections on data service revenues, and toll and vertical service revenues. Among current and historical industry trends analyzed are subscriber usage (calls and minutes of use), incremental capital investment, prepaid subscribership, and subscriber-to-employee ratios. The report draws upon additional sources to include subscribership by state and by other "Economic Areas." CTIA's Wireless Industry Indices report provides a broad range of statistics for the wireless industry, including gross additions, disconnects, and traffic balance data.As the industry has evolved, the CTIA semi-annual data survey has tracked its changes. These benchmarks are not static measures, and CTIA is at work developing additional benchmarks and improved definitions and instructions to adapt to changes in the industry, including the growth of wireless data services.
