5G & Mobile Network Infrastructure Coverage

Our extensive coverage, which includes data, trend, and forecast reports, focuses on cellular network components ranging from antennas, base stations, and access points to front-haul and back-haul. We aim to provide technology implementers with authoritative insight into the innovative technology deployments for indoor and outdoor networks operating under both licensed and unlicensed spectrums, including 4G, 5G, massive MIMO, distributed antenna systems, carrier aggregation, new waveforms, and modulation schemes. Our research coverage also addresses the migration to software-driven, virtualized and open network architectures.

Coverage areas include:
  • Mobile telecom trackers with 4G and 5G focus
  • Outdoor and indoor networks including macrocells and small cells
  • Advanced RAN technologies such as massive MIMO, virtual RAN slicing, multi-connectivity
  • 5G issues including economic, substitutes, regulatory, new business models
  • In-building systems including DAS (Distributed Antenna Systems)
  • RF power semiconductors for pulsed applications
  • Detailed spectrum analysis for 5G networks, sub-6G to mmWave, including regional disparities

Today’s base station antennas now offer a complex portfolio of features such as multi-band, multi-port, multi-beam, active antennas, hybrid active passive configurations in MIMO (Multiple-Input, Multiple-Output) and massive MIMO types. This increasing complexity is compounded by space constraints on the macro base station towers themselves. In developed markets, mobile operators report 30% of macro cell sites only have access to a single antenna mount, while 40% of ...
Mobile Base Station Antennas Competitive Assessment
