The term “Wireless Network Infrastructure” has conventionally been associated with macrocell Radio Access Network (RAN) and mobile core network infrastructure, which SNS Research estimates to account for nearly $52 Billion in spending by the end of 2014.

However, the scope of the term is expanding as wireless carriers increase their investments in Heterogeneous Network or HetNet infrastructure encompassing WiFi, small cells, Distributed Antenna Systems (DAS), Remote Radio Heads (RRH) and the emerging Cloud RAN concept. Driven by the promise of added capacity and coverage with minimum investment in additional spectrum, HetNet infrastructure is expected to account for nearly $17 Billion in spending by the end of 2014.

While macrocell RAN spending is forecast to decline at a CAGR of 3% over the next 6 years, SNS Research estimates that the overall wireless network infrastructure market encompassing macrocell RAN, HetNet, mobile core and backhaul infrastructure will witness tremendous growth over the coming years. Growing at a CAGR of over 5%, the market will account for over $104 Billion in annual spending by the end of 2020.

Complimenting this growth would be over $1 Billion worth of annual R&D investments on 5G mobile technology by wireless carriers, vendors and vertical market players alike, in a bid to further enhance the capacity, speed and performance of future mobile networks.

The “Wireless Network Infrastructure Bible: 2014 – 2020 - Macrocell RAN, Small Cells, RRH, DAS, Cloud RAN, Carrier WiFi, Mobile Core & Backhaul” report presents an in-depth assessment of 9 individual submarkets of the wireless network infrastructure opportunity.

What is the Wireless Network Infrastructure Market?

Wireless network infrastructure represents the backbone of all cellular communication networks worldwide. Traditionally restricted to define the macrocell RAN and core network equipment markets, the term “Wireless Network Infrastructure” now entails a multitude of technologies that are utilized to bring a wireless carrier network into operation.

HetNet RAN Market for 2G/3G/4G

In additional to macrocell infrastructure, there are also other options to add additional coverage and capacity to a mobile network. The most common alternatives include strategically deployed small cells and WiFi access points, which have so far been deployed by more than 150 operators worldwide.

Often marketed under the “HetNet” RAN infrastructure banner, other options include alternative deployment models such as Distributed Antenna Systems (DAS) and the emerging Cloud RAN architecture which concentrates the processing of the RAN segment of a mobile network in one or more, centralized data centers.

Interest from Vertical Markets

Unlike traditional voice centric technologies, both WiMAX and LTE have witnessed considerable interest from vertical sectors such as public safety, healthcare, energy, transportation and defense, driven by their interest in mobile broadband applications. We, thus expect that vertical markets to play a role in ongoing LTE investments. In fact, the public safety sector has already witnessed a number of private LTE deployments to serve public safety agencies. We expect public safety LTE infrastructure spending to surpass $5 Billion by the end of 2020.

Global Mobile Network CapEx

Global mobile network CapEx is expected to increase from nearly $170 Billion in 2014 to $203 Billion in 2020, growing at a CAGR of 3%. As macrocell RAN infrastructure spending will decline overtime, operators will invest significant proportions of their CapEx towards HetNet infrastructure and emerging technologies such as NFV & SDN software and the required infrastructure to run these.

Initial LTE FDD Rollouts: 2010 - 2011

This period saw significant investments in macrocell FDD LTE infrastructure, with several nationwide rollouts of the technology by tier 1 operators in the US, South Korea and Japan. A lower TCO and a move towards a more widely recognized 3GPP ecosystem was a major motive for many of the early LTE adopters (most were primarily CDMA operators).
