TechNavio recognizes the following companies as the key players in the Global Femtocell Equipment Market: Airvana LLC, Alcatel-Lucent S.A., Cisco Systems Inc., and Samsung Electronics Co. Ltd.
Commenting on the report, an analyst from TechNavio’s team said: “The 4G technology is best known for its power-packed data abilities. It promises an excellent user experience and higher revenues opportunities but presents a lot of pressure on the network infrastructure. As the throughput demand and usage increases, the cell coverage decreases. In order to provide efficient coverage and capacity, a large number of cells will be required or Femtocells can be used to provide coverage in 4G blind-spots and cell-edges. In order to provide “five bar” reception, the telecom operators will be actively spending on 4G femtocell during 2012-2016, ramping up the growth of the Global Femtocell Equipment market. The 4G femtocell revenue is expected to grow at a 145 percent CAGR during the forecast period. The femtocell equipment is expected to have tremendous growth on the back of LTE in the Global Telecom industry, wherein the LTE femtocell will become the mainstream small cell solution.”
According to the report, one of the major growth drivers in the market is the continuous demand for better network coverage. In order to sustain in a competitive business environment, the telecom operators are striving to provide better network accessibility to the mobile subscribers. In this regard, femtocell equipment enables the operators to efficiently provide coverage to the value consumers without investing exorbitantly in the network.
Further, the report states that one of the major challenges in this market is the interference with macrocell network. The weaving of femtocell equipment on the backdrop of existing cellular macrocell network can result in the interference between the two coverage networks, leading to poor quality of communication.
