Overview of the global mobile signal booster market

Technavio’s mobile signal booster market research report predicts the global mobile signal booster market to grow exponentially at a CAGR of above 31% by 2021. One of the key factors for the growth of this market is the surging requirement to boost signal strength. The basic concept underlying the mobile signal boosters is their capability to amplify the signal strength. The increasing number of connected devices has resulted in higher spectrum utilization. Such a rise in spectrum demand has led the mobile operators to utilize a higher range of frequencies, which can cater to a higher number of customers. As a consequence, the capacity of a signal to travel longer distances lowers, as the wavelength of a signal and frequency are inversely related. To bridge this gap between the increasing number of users and adequate signal strength, the users depend on signal boosters. With the increasing number of users, the vendors are compelled to utilize higher wavelengths, which in turn, will induce growth in the mobile signal booster market over the forecast period.

At present, technological advancements with low latency are gaining tremendous traction in this market. One of the biggest challenges faced by the signal booster manufacturers is matching the hardware and software of the booster device with the network hardware provided by the telecom software and hardware providers. To support this, vendors such as Nextivity have designed and developed advanced radio frequency and signal processing technology in their Cel-Fi baseband processors. These processors can support radio frequency (RF) signals with very low latency, this allows optimum operation between handsets and mobile networks and also supports latest technologies such as 3G and 4G/LTE voice and data services.

Competitive landscape and key vendors

At present, the mobile signal booster market is growing significantly owing to the constant improvements in the telecom infrastructure. The competition in the mobile signal booster market is low, primarily due to the limited number of international players. Another important fact that defines the competitiveness of the global mobile signal booster market is the regulations from the local governments and telecom regulatory authorities, which allow or forbid the use of these devices within a country. For instance, the use of mobile signal boosters is not allowed in the UK, in such countries the sale of the boosters depends on the demand from the network operators or wireless service providers.

Segmentation by application and analysis of the mobile signal booster market

• Consumer
• Industrial

During 2016, the industrial signal boosters led the mobile signal booster market and accounted for a major part of the overall market share. The major reason for this segment’s high growth can be attributed to a wide range of devices that are designed to serve multiple users simultaneously and cover larger areas such as airports, educational campuses, stadiums, office buildings, hospitals, tunnels, and shopping malls. These devices use high power as compared with consumer signal boosters and have more functionalities such as remote monitoring capability to allow the operator to use a graphical user interface to control the device power remotely. Factors like lower costs than distributed antenna systems (DAS) and wider area coverage will propel the growth of this industry over the forecast period.

Geographical segmentation and analysis of the mobile signal booster market

• Americas
• APAC
• EMEA

In this mobile signal booster market study report, analysts have estimated the Americas to dominate the mobile signal booster market during the forecast period. This dominance can be attributed to the support of the government allowing open regulations for the development of these devices. The manufacturers of the signal boosters need to have the approval from the regulatory authorities such as the federal communications commission (FCC) and also from the carrier operators in the specific countries. Moreover, joint development programs between the signal booster manufacturers and the carrier will contribute to maintaining the dominance of the mobile signal booster market in the region in the next few years.
