Fixed Wireless Access Market Analysis

The Fixed Wireless Access Market is expected to register a CAGR of 10.17% during the forecast period.

  • The demand for internet connectivity among households has increased with the growth in connected devices. Additionally, wearable technology has improved in various emerging economies, contributing to the need for better wireless broadband connectivity.
  • Additionally, the steady evolution of wireless broadband technology over the past decade keeps pace with advances in standards set by the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE). These standards are modernized to improve the network throughput regarding maximum speed and transmission capability. These upgrades have given the companies in the market the means to strive for innovation and successfully satisfy the customers' demand for higher bandwidth and faster internet, driving the market's growth significantly.
  • Also, the increasing demand for faster internet connectivity among consumers, owing to the data size becoming more prominent and the rise in the number of devices connected to the device, is spurring the demand for fixed wireless access with effective connectivity. Further, the increase in the number of connected devices and increasing focus and implementation of smart homes using smart devices are expected to fuel the market demand during the forecast period. Moreover, the growing adoption of smart home architecture worldwide, including remote access, voice control, and seamless connectivity, further drives the demand in the market studied.
  • Furthermore, with the 5G network launch, the emerging economies in the Asia-Pacific region are expected to propel the market for fixed wireless access during the study period. According to the Ericsson Mobility Report, 5G subscriptions are expected to reach 1 billion by the end of the year. More smart 5G devices with additional capabilities are expected this year. In five years, the 5G subscriptions are anticipated to surpass 5 billion, and Fixed Wireless Access (FWA) connections will reach around 300 million, where 5G will account for about 80 % of FWA connections.
  • However, aspects like the rising dependence on Spectrum Allocation in Some Countries and Cost and Environmental Challenges Associated with Millimeter-wave Technology might be some factors that can restrain the market's growth throughout the forecasted period.
  • Amid the COVID-19 crisis, fixed wireless access (FWA) solutions would likely witness increased demand and fill in fiber broadband networks. This results from a sudden and widespread explosion in telecommuting by employees worldwide who can work from home. According to Preseem, a quality monitoring and optimization platform for fixed wireless networks, the increased demand is especially significant during business hours.

Fixed Wireless Access Industry Overview

The fixed wireless access market is fragmented due to the presence of significant solution providers across the globe who are incessantly working towards gaining more market traction. The companies are entering into strategic partnerships and alliances, raising funds to introduce new solutions, and improvising on the existing ones to increase market visibility. Some of the recent developments in the market are

In February 2023, Nokia and China United Network Communication Group Co. (CUC) announced today that they are expanding their collaboration by trialing a 5G fixed wireless access (FWA) solution based on Nokia's integrated Multi-Access Gateway in an existing network. This is the first test of its kind in the Chinese market. CUC will be able to grow network bandwidth and provide additional internet services to its consumers in the future by smoothly combining fixed and mobile networks.

In October 2022, Nokia declared that NBN had selected it to supply 5G fixed wireless access (FWA) mmWave Customer Premises Equipment (CPE) for NBN's fixed wireless network upgrade. The program would help deliver faster speeds to thousands of homes and businesses across regional, semi-rural, and remote Australia. In a world-first, the customer premise equipment (CPE) provided by Nokia supports high frequency 'mmWave' bands, capable of Gigabit speeds for premises within a 7 km radius of a radio base station.
