Global Cloud-RAN Market Research Report 2023

A radio access network (abbreviation: RAN) is a part of a mobile communication system. It is the realization of radio access technology. It exists between a device (for example, a mobile phone, a computer, or any remotely controlled machine) and a Core Network (CN), and provides a communication connection between the two.

The global Cloud-RAN market was valued at US$ million in 2022 and is anticipated to reach US$ million by 2029, witnessing a CAGR of % during the forecast period 2023-2029. The influence of COVID-19 and the Russia-Ukraine War were considered while estimating market sizes.

First of all, Cloud-RAN offers various benefits like reduction in cost of network operations. The three types of cost reductions are energy consumption, site rental expenses and operational & maintenance cost of network. These savings can be balanced against cost incurred on fibre optical cables required to meet fronthaul capacity and latency requirements. Cloud-RAN also enhances capacity due to coordinated multipoint and ensures speedy performance. Aforementioned benefits of Cloud-RAN architecture automatically increase the value of service to end-users. Second,the global Cloud-RAN market can be divided into different regions. Emerging economies of Asia Pacific will generate significant demand in the following year.
