摘要

A new forecast released by Mobile Experts predicts a shifting market for mobile communications base stations, with new technologies driving growth in the number of radio transceivers deployed annually. The forecast predicts that more than 14 million radio transceivers will be installed during 2016, with more than half deployed for LTE services. "Despite the rise of small cells, the macro infrastructure market will remain strong," said Joe Madden, Principal Analyst at Mobile Experts. "In particular, rising data traffic demand will drive a need for ongoing investment in the macro layer, especially for 3G, TD-LTE and LTE-FDD systems."
