Due to exponential increase in mobile data traffic on the network, telecommunication service providers are unable to cater the current capacity demands due to limitation of available spectrum. The increasing penetration of smart devices such as mobile phones and tablets has increased the amount of mobile data traveling on the network and this amount is set to grow exponentially by 2018. The telecommunication service providers are also facing the network coverage issues within buildings and city limits.

The increasing number of buildings in the cities has led to obstruction in the telecom signals and is leading to poor quality of services and degraded customer experiences. The solution to the problem faced by the telecom service providers in terms of capacity and coverage can be solved by solutions offered by global small cell market.

The small cell is emerging as an efficient and cost-effective alternative for network expansion, economically beneficial to the mobile network operators with low operating and capital cost. These small cells come in a compact form and are easy to install, consume less power that can be supplied by using Power-Over-Ethernet (POE) technology, can be deployed indoors and outdoors, and require only Ethernet connectivity for connecting to the mobile network.

The market provides mobile network operators with the option of offloading the mobile data on to unlicensed spectrum through Wi-Fi and provides coverage using the licensed spectrum. These types of cells enable the mobile network operators to use carrier Wi-Fi for mobile data as well as provide network coverage throughout the city by eliminating all the blind spots. The small cell extend the coverage and capacity of the network to accommodate the growing amount of mobile data and provide extended network coverage along with greatly reducing the capital and operational expenditure in comparison to traditional macro cells.

The traditional approach used for extending the network coverage is by installing new macro cells; however, this approach requires huge capital and operational expenditure along with large areas for installation. The area required by the macro cells poses the biggest restraint within the city limits for adding macro cells.

On the other hand, small cell are easily deployable and can be placed on walls, street lamps, traffic signals, and other such sites. Small cell market is gaining traction due to its attractiveness in terms of economics and easy deployment. These cells are presenting the mobile network operators with new revenue streams by providing deeper analytics about the customers and also by reducing the total cost of ownership per bit carried across the network.

This report forecasts the global small cell market to grow from $690.0 million in 2014 to $4.8 billion by 2019, at a Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of 41.7%.
