The signal booster market has seen considerable growth due to a variety of factors.
• The signal booster market will grow from $16.89 billion in 2024 to $19.39 billion in 2025 at a CAGR of 14.8%.
This growth is driven by the expansion of 5G networks, advances in electronic components, widespread adoption of smartphones, increased IoT device usage relying on cellular connectivity, and various geographic and demographic factors.
The signal booster market is expected to maintain its strong growth trajectory in upcoming years.
• The signal booster market is expected to reach $33.36 billion by 2029, growing at a CAGR of 14.5%.
This growth is attributed to advances in antenna technology, the expansion of smart cities, rising urbanization, government and private sector connectivity initiatives, favorable policies, and growing awareness. Trends include multi-functional devices, customizable and modular designs, enhanced indoor coverage, manufacturing advancements, and eco-friendly, energy-efficient products.
Growth in the market for signal boosters is anticipated to be fueled by the rising use of smartphones. Smartphones amalgamate the features of conventional mobile phones and handheld computers, making them more widely demanded for a variety of reasons such as internet access, cost-effectiveness, improved connectivity, lifestyle integration, social media, and communication. These devices enhance cellular signals by wirelessly connecting to signal boosters, particularly in regions with poor network coverage. This enhances reception and call quality. For example, in February 2024, data from the UK-based financial conduct authority, Uswitch Limited revealed that mobile connections in the UK rose to 71.8 million, a 3.8% growth from the previous year, resulting in roughly 2.6 million new connections. Looking forward, the population in the UK is predicted to increase to 68.3 million by 2025, with close to 95% of the residents, approximately 65 million individuals, projected to possess a smartphone. As a result, the growing use of smartphones is propelling the signal booster market's expansion.
