Mobile Fronthaul Market: Key Drivers and Trends

The growth of mobile computing devices is notably driving the mobile fronthaul market growth, although factors such as interference in cell sites may impede the market growth. Our research analysts have studied the historical data and deduced the key market drivers and the COVID-19 pandemic impact on the mobile fronthaul industry. The holistic analysis of the drivers will help in deducing end goals and refining marketing strategies to gain a competitive edge.

Key Mobile Fronthaul Market Driver

One of the key factors driving growth in the mobile fronthaul market is the growth of mobile computing devices. The growing functionalities of smartphones have increased the requirement for higher bandwidth such as 4G, as it enables high Internet speed compared with the previous generation technologies such as 3G and 2G. As data capacity in mobile networks continues to rise at an exponential rate, mobile operators are seeking new architectures that can support them in reducing cost, simplifying networks, and sharing resources to match the dynamic nature of mobile networks. Pertaining to this, mobile operators are moving to centralized RAN and ultimately C-RAN. This new C-RAN architecture supports control ongoing operational costs, such as fewer truck rolls to the cell site and reduced power consumption, and greatly upsurges the network's flexibility for macro cell and small cell deployments. Thus, the growth of mobile computing devices and the need for networks that can support high-bandwidth applications are driving the growth of the global mobile fronthaul market.

Key Mobile Fronthaul Market Challenge

The interference in cell sites will be a major challenge for the mobile fronthaul market vendors during the forecast period. Interference in cell sites is due to the improper conductivity of the passive devices such as cables, connectors, or antennae. This internal interference can produce intermodulation signals at the same frequency band as mobile transmitters. As mobile technology is evolving to LTE, the operators utilize frequency refarming to deliver high data rates for mobile devices while upholding the spectra of the technologies such as the global system for mobile communication (GSM) and wideband code division multiple access (WCMDA). The frequency refarming supports the increase in the implementation of LTE gradually, but the co-existence of several technologies in a narrow spectrum leads to the reusage of frequencies, which further leads to internal interferences in the RAN. As a result, interference in cell sites has been considered the major challenge for the deployment of mobile fronthaul network infrastructure.
