5G Small Cell in Aviation Market

5G Small Cell in Aviation Market Outlook - 2027

The global 5G small cell in aviation market is experiencing a significant growth due to increase in demand for high-speed internet connectivity. 5G is the fifth-generation telecommunication standard in cellular networks. Small cells are low-powered cellular radio access nodes that operate in licensed and unlicensed spectrum that have a range of 10 meters to a few kilometers. Moreover, small cells are viewed as a solution to allow re-using the same frequencies and as an important method of increasing cellular network capacity, quality, and resilience to provide for the data capacity demands of 5G. Further, 5G utilizes higher frequency radio waves than current LTE 4G cellular networks to achieve large bandwidth capacity. 

COVID-19 scenario analysis: 

• COVID-19 has forced people that include the workforce of telecommunication companies around the world to work from home, due government-imposed lockdown.
• The mobile network companies have witnessed a surge in bandwidth consumption due to increased usage of mobile data as people staying at home to comply with the governments initiatives to contain the COVID-19 outbreak.
• Airports and airlines, however are experiencing financial crisis due to travel bans issued by authorities to check the spread of COVID-19.
• Mobile communication service providers are forced to delay ongoing projects of 5G infrastructure due to restricted site access and workforce shortage, in the wake of COVID-19 scenario.
• Aviation industry adopting 5G is expected to reap rewards upon the lift of travel restrictions due to increased air passenger traffic.

The global 5G small cell in aviation market trends are as follows:

Adoption of 5G in the aviation industry    

Installation of 5G at airports will provide ultra-high-speed internet connectivity to air passengers. Number of airports across the globe are spending heavily to upgrade their existing infrastructure. For instance, in 2020, Picocom, a leading 5G open radio access network (RAN) baseband semiconductor and software firm has selected UltraSoC’s (a consumer electronics manufacturer headquartered in Cambridge, UK) hardware-based analytics & monitoring intellectual property (IP) for use in Picocom’s upcoming baseband system-on-chip (SoC) for 5G small cells. The UltraSoC IP enables Picocom and its customers to monitor, analyze as well as fine-tune the performance of their systems throughout the whole product lifecycle, starting in the lab for silicon bring-up and software development, through to deployment and in-field optimization. Moreover, Picocom provides open RAN standards-compliant baseband SoCs and carrier-grade software products for 5G small cell infrastructure. Hence, adoption of 5G in aviation industry is expected to boost the global 5G small cell in aviation market.
