Report Overview

The global Distributed Antenna Systems (DAS) market size is expected to be worth around USD  22415.13 million by 2031 from USD 9,555.7 million in 2021, growing at a CAGR of 8.90% during the forecast period from 2021 to 2031.

The largest DAS market has indexed a surge in demand due to the need for more efficient data transmission. DAS offers many benefits, including fewer coverage gaps, effective data services, and better coverage with less power. These systems support growth by increasing the cellular capacity of mobile phones, Wi-Fi building coverage, Personal Digital Assistants (PDAs), and security applications.

Global Distributed Antenna System (DAS) Market Scope:

Technology Analysis

In 2022, the ‘Hybrid DAS’ segment accounted for over 42.9% of this market’s revenue and is expected to continue to dominate this market over the forecast period. This segment is expected to grow as it provides reliable data cellular connectivity, even in the face of fluctuating signals. These systems are also easy to install and require minimal design time. This will be a key factor driving segment growth over the forecast period. Because of its greater coverage and lower cost, hybrid DAS technology is highly preferred among users.

Over the forecast period, the ‘Active DAS’ segment is expected to grow at a significant rate. These systems provide reliable, consistent signals at all antennas and support Simple Network Management Protocol alarms. This system’s high maintenance and installation costs could limit market growth potential.

Ownership Analysis

In 2022, the ‘Neutral-Host Ownership model’ segment accounted for the majority of the revenue share of this market. It is expected that this segment will continue to expand further over the forecast period. When funding is initiated through third-party systems integrators, neutral-host ownership offers many benefits. This group of system integrators works with several carriers to install DAS.

The host company has exclusive rights to the system, and the end-user gets a multicarrier DAS. Neutral-host ownership offers several benefits, including increased coverage and quality, greater capacity, lower capital costs, and faster time to market for service providers.

The ‘Carrier Ownership segment is expected to index significant growth due to the growing demand for bandwidth in consumer electronics products. The ‘Enterprise Ownership’ segment is expected to grow at a moderate CAGR rate over the forecast period.

Application Analysis

On the basis of ‘Application’, the ‘Public Venues & Safety’ segment accounted for over 25% of the distributed antenna system market’s share in 2022. This segment is expected to grow at a CAGR of around 16.2%, between 2023 and 2032. This is due to the steady increase in construction activities for commercial infrastructure. The majority of public venues include shopping malls, theatres, fairgrounds, and conference centers. Employees and patrons expect seamless mobile data traffic experiences. DAS will enable customers and employees to have better data quality and eliminate poor wireless coverage.

The ‘Healthcare’ application segment is expected to register a significant adoption in the organization of distributed antenna systems. This sector is highly dependent on reliable data and uninterrupted connectivity for their daily activities. Fully-integrated systems are essential for doctors and staff to increase their operational efficiency as well as productivity. Distributed antenna systems are used in healthcare to provide enhanced data connectivity for staff and visitors by eliminating poor wireless coverage between buildings and reducing interference. It also maintains better signal quality.

Market Dynamics:

This market has indexed rapid growth due to the increasing number of the smartphone user. The ability of these systems to support multiple operators, and interconnectivity with other antenna modules also aids market growth.

There are many market challenges that wireless data usage is causing, including a decrease in coverage and reduced carrier capacity. cellular network coverage service providers are now focusing on offering advanced and cost-effective services to subscribers who use data-intensive applications like video and audio streaming. This is slated to drive the deployment of DAS. Due to this increased data usage, small-cell networks have become crucial for providing coverage and capacity. Distributed antenna systems are being used by service providers to build small cells that they require as part of their outdoor network plans.

This technology has been in use for over a decade. However, it is expected that the increasing demands for threshold bandwidth and the need to have fewer assets will continue to drive innovation in the distributed antenna system industry trend as well as the optical networks industry. This technology is not only able to deliver small cells but also provides efficient backhaul. To make deployments cost-effective, mobile service providers are eager to implement the most recent DAS and fiber technologies. These elements are expected to propel this market over the forecast period.

Regional Analysis

North America accounted for more than 38% of this global market’s share in 2022 and will continue to grow at a significant CAGR over the forecast period. This can be attributed to the growing key trend of Bringing your Own Devices (BYOD) and the key development of smart cities and smart homes. This region’s expansion will be further driven by the increasing use of smartphones and growing wireless traffic.

The DAS market in the Asia Pacific is also forecast to grow over the forecast period. Regional growth can be attributed to the increasing infrastructural rapid development in India and China. Regional market growth is also supported by the increasing deployment of 4G/LTE connections and the significant presence of DAS providers. The deployment of 4G/LTE technology and the infrastructural growth offers several opportunities for DAS deployment. However, Europe’s market growth is primarily driven by expanding public venues, safety, healthcare, and the industrial sector, among other sectors.
