The massive mimo market has seen considerable growth due to a variety of factors.
•In recent years, the size of the massive mimo market has seen a significant increase. Its growth is expected to continue from $8.12 billion in 2024 to $11.28 billion in 2025, with a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 38.9%.
The expansion during the historical period is due to several reasons including the emergence of 4g technology, the need for greater network capacity, availability of spectrum, early market acceptance, and research and development efforts.
The massive mimo market is expected to maintain its strong growth trajectory in upcoming years.
• We are anticipating a significant surge in the size of the massive mimo market in the forthcoming years. The market is set to swell to $39.25 billion by 2029, with a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 36.6%.
Key drivers of this anticipated growth during the forecasted period include the introduction and expansion of 5G, network densification, the rise of the IoT and Industry 4.0, increasing demand for improved mobile broadband, and network virtualization. Noteworthy trends expected within this period are the application of massive MIMO in mm-wave bands, the progression of beamforming, network slicing for enhanced customization, advancements in energy efficiency, and the advent of open RAN (radio access network).
The massive MIMO market is anticipated to flourish due to the surge in demand for swift and dependable mobile communication. Swift and dependable mobile communication signifies a wireless network providing reliable connectivity and high-speed data transmission for efficient mobile communication. Massive MIMO, an advanced technology for mobile communication, is vital in meeting the needs for accelerated data speed, enhanced network capability, and superior user experience. For example, as reported by the France-based international organization, Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development in 2023, in OECD nations, data consumption per mobile broadband subscription grew by 17% in 2022. The overall mobile data usage per subscription doubled over four years, from 4.7 gigabytes per month to 10.4 GB in 2022. Consequently, the burgeoning demand for swift and dependable mobile communication fuels the expansion of the massive MIMO market.
