Market Overview:
The global mobile fronthaul market is expected to grow at a CAGR of XX% during the forecast period from 2018 to 2030. The growth in this market can be attributed to the increasing demand for bandwidth-intensive applications and services, such as 4G/5G and IoT. In addition, the growing number of data centers is also contributing to the growth of this market. The global mobile fronthaul market can be segmented on the basis of type into cloud RAN and centralized RAN. The cloud RAN segment is expected to grow at a higher CAGR than the centralized RAN segment during the forecast period from 2018 to 2030. This can be attributed to its advantages such as low latency, scalability, and flexibility.
Product Definition:
A mobile fronthaul is a type of optical fiber network used to connect cellular base stations (or "cells") with each other and with the core network. Mobile fronthauls are critical to 5G networks, which will require much greater bandwidth and capacity than current 4G LTE networks.
Cloud RAN:
Cloud RAN, also known as Cloud Radio Access Network (CRAN), is a virtual network created in the cloud to provide radio access network services. It uses wide area networking technology and provides benefits such as flexibility, scalability and cost-effectiveness to service providers.
Centralized RAN:
Centralized RAN (C-RAN) is a radio access network that provides seamless connectivity between mobile devices and core networks. It facilitates the separation of baseband functionality from the upper layers in a mobile telecommunications network, which simplifies operations for operators while providing enhanced data capacity to support high-speed data applications such as video telephony and Internet Protocol TV (IPTV).
Application Insights:
The networking segment dominated the global mobile fronthaul market in 2017 and is expected to continue its dominance over the forecast period. The segment generated a revenue of USD 1.8 billion in 2017 and is projected to grow at a significant rate over the next seven years. This growth can be attributed to increasing demand for data transfer services, growing number of wireless users, and rising adoption of 4G technology across various industries such as IT & telecommunication, media & entertainment, public safety & security among others.
The government segment accounted for more than 20% share in 2017 owing to extensive use of LTE Cat-1/Cat-2 network infrastructure for providing communication services across military installations worldwide. Moreover, operators are deploying large cell sites with high powered radars that assist devices in detecting signals even from long distances resulting in improved coverage areas at reduced costs which will drive its demand further over the forecast period.
Regional Analysis:
The Asia Pacific regional market accounted for the largest revenue share in 2017 and is expected to continue its dominance over the forecast period. The growth can be attributed to increasing investments in 3G/4G infrastructure, rising demand for data services, and growing adoption of smartphones. Moreover, increasing number of service providers has led to increased competition among operators which will drive innovation and better network performance. This is likely to spur industry expansion over the next eight years.
North America region is anticipated to witness significant growth from 2018 to 2030 owing high usage of mobile connectivity across enterprises as well as government agencies thereby driving demand for advanced technologies such as fronthaul solutions over this period. Furthermore, presence of major technology players such as Qualcomm Inc.
Europe also held a considerable share in terms of revenue generation owing increase use cases across enterprises coupled with government initiatives pertaining towards modernization.
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand for mobile data services: The increasing demand for mobile data services is one of the major growth drivers for the global mobile fronthaul market. This is because fronthaul links are used to carry traffic from cell sites to baseband units (BBUs), which helps in improving the overall network performance.
- Proliferation of 4G and 5G networks: The proliferation of 4G and 5G networks is another key factor that is expected to drive the growth of the global mobile fronthaul market in the coming years. This is because these networks offer high-speed internet connectivity, which has led to an increase in data traffic over wireless networks.
- Emergence of small cells: The emergence of small cells has also emerged as a key trend that will boost the growth prospects ofthe globalmobilefronthaulmarketin therear future .Thisisthusbecausesmallcellsareusedtocarrytrafficfromcellsitesdirectlytobasebandunits,therebyreducingtheloadonthewirelessbackhaulnetworkandimprovingnetworkperformanceandservicequalityfortelecommunicationsproviders.
