Small Cell 5G Network Market Growth & Trends:
The global small cell 5G network market size is anticipated to reach USD 125.54 billion by 2030 and is projected to grow at a CAGR of 70.7% from 2024 to 2030, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. The increasing deployment of 5G small cells across the globe is a major factor behind the market growth. Global mobile operators are increasingly dependent on the installation of small cells to enhance network coverage. In the coming years, operators are anticipated to heavily rely on 5G small cells to augment data network capacity in areas experiencing high levels of traffic congestion.
Furthermore, according to the Telefonaktiebolaget LM Ericsson's Mobile Data Traffic Outlook report, at the end of 2022, total worldwide mobile data traffic reached 93 EB per month. This global increase in mobile data traffic is owing to three major factors such as a rise in data-intensive content, advancements in device capabilities, and the growth in data consumption driven by ongoing developments in network performance. Thus, the continuous rise in mobile data traffic and surged demand for network capacity expansion is further expected to improve the market growth over the forecast period.
Various companies in the global market are deploying 5G small cells to gain a competitive advantage in the global market. For instance, in September 2023, BLiNQ Networks announced its partnership with EdgeQ to launch their advanced 5G small cell base station under the name, the PCW-400i. PCW-400i by the BLiNQ Networks is the first integrated Wi-Fi & 5G platform developed to enable Industry 4.0 applications economically. Such initiatives are expected to contribute to the market's growth over the forecast period.
Increasing investment in 5G infrastructure across the globe is further driving the market growth. 5G infrastructure providers are vital in deploying network technology requisite for transport applications, including traffic management systems and autonomous vehicles. The 5G infrastructure, including small cells, helps deliver uninterrupted connectivity to driverless vehicles to avoid fatalities and aids local transport authorities to monitor the traffic flow efficiently. Thus, significant investments in deploying 5G devices and equipment across locations such as airports, stadiums, and metro stations given security concerns are further anticipated to boost the market growth over the forecast period.
