Radio over Fiber Market: Key Drivers and Trends

Based on our research output, there has been a negative impact on the market growth during and post COVID-19 era. The high dependency of wireless communication industry on ROF is notably driving the radio over fiber market growth, although factors such as RoF as an analog transmission system that reduces NF and DR may impede market growth. Our research analysts have studied the historical data and deduced the key market drivers and the COVID-19 pandemic impact on the radio over fiber industry. The holistic analysis of the drivers will help in deducing end goals and refining marketing strategies to gain a competitive edge.

Key Radio over Fiber Market Driver

One of the key factors driving growth in the radio over fiber market is the high dependency of wireless communication industry on RoF. The RoF technology is important for the wireless market, as it supports the ever-growing data traffic volumes and transports the information through optical fibers by modulating the light with the radio signal. The demand for increased capacity per unit area leads to higher operating frequencies above 6 GHz and smaller radio cells, such as in indoor applications where the high operating frequencies encounter high losses through the building walls. Large bandwidth, low attenuation loss, easy installation and maintenance, immunity to RF interface, dynamic resource allocation and operation flexibility, and low power consumption are the major attractions of the RoF system. These are mainly used in applications in video distribution systems, satellite control, cellular networks, vehicle communication, wireless LANs, and mobile broadband services. The huge bandwidth and less attenuation losses of optical fibers make them more attractive than coaxial cables and conventional wireless transmission. Therefore, such dependence on RoF for the wireless communication industry is expected to drive the growth of the global RoF market.

Key Radio over Fiber Market Challenge

The RoF as an analog transmission system that reduces NF and DR will be a major challenge for the radio over fiber market during the forecast period. RoF is an analog transmission system that is used to distribute RF signals over analog optical links. It also involves analog modulation and the detection of light. RoF limits the noise figure (NR) and dynamic range (DR) of the RoF links and is an important form of the analog communication system. Furthermore, in electrical communications, both fiber optic links NF and DR play an important role. For instance, in mobile communication systems, DR is important in Global System for Mobile (GSM) communications as the power received at the BS from the macro users (MUs) witnesses high fluctuations. It is certain that the power received from an MU can be much higher than the RF power received at an MU, which is several kilometers away but within the same cell. Handling such technical issues is a challenge for the global RoF market, as it involves additional circuits and control within the system. Thus, the reduction of NF and DR by RoF is one of the major challenges for the RoF market.
