The cellular networks are broadly divided into the radio access network and the core network. The radio access network aids the connection of mobile devices to the core network. The radio access network comprises the hardware devices such as small cells and macro cells, which help establish the wireless network connectivity between various end nodes. It provides a path for communication between the users and external networks/internet. The radio access network market is expected to reach USD 14.99 Billion by 2023 from USD 9.88 Billion in 2018, at a CAGR of 8.7% between 2018 and 2023. The companies are focusing on the development and commercialization of the 5G connectivity technology network to meet the challenges pertaining to insufficient coverage capacity and data communication speeds. 5G is the next-generation wireless broadband technology that would provide high-speed data communications and would address the growing demand for high-speed data communications from the business context.
The radio access network market is highly competitive with a large number of global and local market players. Product launches and developments have been the most prominent strategies followed by the key industry players in the recent years. Moreover, partnerships and collaborations are other major growth strategies followed by the companies in the radio access network market.
