 In-Building Wireless Systems: Connecting Networks and Services
Worldwide Deployment Scenarios and Equipment Forecasts for Active, Passive and Distributed Antenna Systems, Repeaters, Antennas, Picocells and Femtocells In-building wireless systems, forecasted to exceed $15 billion in revenues in 2013, are a key enabler for delivering on the potential of cellular mobile services. But every region and operator has a different set of network technologies, competitive conditions and mobile usage. Fortunately, there is a range of solutions and equipment options to serve the varied regional conditions. This study discusses, the regional differences that drive different in-building wireless solutions. The differences are analyzed not only from the view of the customer, but also from the view of the equipment supplier, the operator, building owner and enterprise. It provides forecasts at the solution level, including information on deployments, revenues, costs and penetration of the four solution types including active distributed antenna systems (DAS), passive DAS, distributed repeater solutions and distributed radio solutions. Individual shipment and revenue forecasts are also presented, including active and passive DAS, repeaters, antennas, cabling, picocells and femtocells.  What Does This Report Answer?
