Wireless Network Infrastructure Market Analysis and Forecasts to 2030 Nov 2016 | Page 3
Wireless Network Infrastructure Forecasts: 2016 – 2030 – Macrocell RAN, Small
Cells, C-RAN, RRH, DAS, Carrier Wi-Fi, Mobile Core, Backhaul & Fronthaul
In addition, mobile operators are keen to shift towards a C-RAN (Centralized RAN) architecture, which
centralizes baseband functionality to be shared across a large number of distributed radio nodes. In
comparison to standalone clusters of base stations, C-RAN provides significant performance and economic
benefits such as baseband pooling, enhanced coordination between cells, virtualization, network extensibility
and energy efficiency.
Due to a decline in macrocell RAN infrastructure spending, Wireless Network Infrastructure Market 2016
Research estimates that the wireless network infrastructure market will remain relatively flat through 2020,
with annual investments of over $61 Billion. We also expect a significant shift in investments towards small
cells, C-RAN, DAS and carrier Wi-Fi infrastructure. By 2020, these four submarkets, together with their
fronthaul and backhaul segments, will account for over 50% of all wireless network infrastructure spending.
