Following the computer and mobile Internet,the Internet of Things has set off the tide of the third world information industry.The communication between people gradually moves toward the communication between people and things,things and things.Meanwhile,the global telecom operators are facing the problem of the market becoming saturated and income growth is weak.And the communication industry,which relies on its pipeline business,is gradually falling into the quagmire of "incremental rise but income decline".Besides,the number of mobile terminal has also reached its ceiling.Chinese telecommunication operators are not exceptions.Accordingly,business transformation is of great urgency.With the development of technologies,such as 5G,cloud computing and big data,which provide a solid technical foundation,Internet of Things will be the growth point for Chinese telecommunication operators.However,facing the complicated and diverse industries and the Internet of Things business,how to choose the core Internet of Things business suitable for enterprise development has become an important issue.Currently,the research in this area is still in its infancy and lacks a solid theoretical basis.Based on the theory of core competence,core business theory and core business choice theory,this paper takes the choice of Internet of Things business as the main research object and this paper takes the main influencing factors of telecom operators in IoT business selection as the research direction.There are two questions would be solved:First,what are the main factors that telecom operators consider when making business choices for Internet of Things?Second,how about the weight of the various factors in making business choices for Internet of Things?Based on the two research questions,this paper through the consult literature,combing the related basic theory of several core factors in the theory,determined the the essential theoretical foundation of the influence factors in Internet of things business choose.Secondly,through the methods of questionnaires,in-depth interviews and case studies,this paper studies in depth the relevant indicators that may affect the telecommunication operators' choice of Internet of Things services,and elaborates and analyzes the indicators in detail,providing the reality basis for this research.Afterwards,this article construct the structural equation model,and conduct the fitting test to the questionnaire data to verify the impact of each index on the decision-making of enterprises and extract the key indicators that have influence.Finally,through the combination of expert judgment and analytic hierarchy process,this paper determined the impact weight of each key index and completed the research on the influencing factors and index weights of the telecom operator's selection in Internet of Things business.Guided by the theory of core competence,core business theory and core business choice theory,this dissertation deeply studied the relevant factors of Internet of Things business selection and established the model to verify the analysis.Finally,the following conclusions are drawn:(1)In the process of IoT business selection,telecom operators should analyze the various factors under the three indicators of "internal capability","business attribute" and "external environment",and improve the ideas of Internet of things business selection and decision-making.(2)In the decision-making of IoT business,the telecom operators should give priority to the relevant factors of "internal capabilities" that match the business,followed by the relevant factors of "business attributes",and finally consider the relevant factors of the "external environment".The weight of the factors had been quantified,it should be carried out to analyze for specific business in the decision-making.At the end of this article,the conclusion of this paper is summarized,and the problems existing in the research are reflected and prospected.
