Market Definition

Radio over fiber (RF over fiber) is an analog transmission over fiber technology that uses a radio signal to amplitude modulate light and transport it over an optical fiber link to enable wireless access. Although radio transmission over fiber is utilized for various applications, including cable television (CATV) networks and satellite base stations, the term RoF is most commonly associated with wireless access. Wireless signals are transferred in optical form between a central station and a group of base stations in RoF systems before being broadcast. Each base station is configured to communicate with at least one user's mobile station within the base station's radio range.

North America RF Over Fiber Market Dynamics

This section deals with understanding the market drivers, advantages, opportunities, restraints, and challenges. All of this is discussed in detail below:

  • Rising demand for fiber optic cable for higher bandwidth

Fiber optic bandwidth is high as data transmission speed and distance covered data without attenuation are possible. Optical fiber can transmit data as pulses of light through different objects such as glass wire, allowing data to travel at the speed of light. Optical communication helps a beam of light to carry information from transmitter to receiver. Optical frequency is usually close to an infrared ray and about one thousand GHz. Fiber optics provide the network with the utmost quality data and little signal interference.

  • Efficient performance of fiber optic cable as compared to copper cable

Copper cable bandwidth is restricted in terms of speed and frequencies. The range of frequencies over which data are transmitted is much wider in optical fiber. Fiber can carry far more information in minutes from one area to another while the copper cable transmits data slowly, using electrical signals than optical fiber, which carries data through light-based signals.

  • Increased adoption of mobile devices

The increasing disposable income of the consumers and the need for advanced electronic products are driving the consumer electronics market. Consumers are becoming techno-savvy and adopting new technologies at work, in daily routine, in personal entertainment, and others. Smart devices are adopting a major share of the market due to improved control, features, and other functions.

  • Low power consumption benefit of RFoF

The energy required per bit of data conveyed can also determine a system's energy efficiency. The power consumption can be defined as the power consumption per user vs the average access rate (Watts/Mbps), and the power consumption of an access network infrastructure is created using network segmentation. Manufacturer data on equipment energy consumption for a variety of typical types of hardware is used to calculate the energy consumption of each portion of the system for a range of access rates. This perspective provides a better platform for predicting the rise in power consumption as the number of users and access rate per user grows fast.

  • Easy installation and maintenance of RFoF

Most RoF techniques eliminate the necessity for local oscillators and related equipment at the Remote Antenna Units (RAU). The complex and expensive equipment is maintained at the head end of RoF systems, making RAUs simpler. The high-frequency electro-optical modulators and electronics must be avoided at the CS (central station) due to their high cost and high power consumption. In addition, due to their high production and maintenance costs, sophisticated implementations of downlink transmission systems should also be avoided. The head end houses the modulation and switching equipment, which several RAUs share. As a result of this configuration, RAUs are smaller and lighter, lowering system installation and maintenance costs.

  • Technological limitation of RFoF

Chromatic dispersion in single-mode fiber based RoF systems can limit fiber connection lengths and cause phase de-correlation, resulting in higher RF carrier phase noise. Modal dispersion severely limits the available link bandwidth and distance in multi-mode fiber-based RoF systems. Although the RoF transmission method is analog, the radio system that is distributed does not have to be analog (e.g., WLAN and UMTS) and can use extensive multi-level signal modulation formats such as Quadrature Amplitude Modulation (QAM) or orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM).

  • High initial cost of investment

RF over fiber network offers several beneficial factors such as high bandwidth, high speed, and lightweight, but all this comes with a high investment cost. The fiber optic network components are quite expensive. This is why copper cables are still preferred, where cost is a major factor in choosing the type of network. This may restrain the growth of the North America RF over fiber market. Adding the cost of transceivers and all other components increase the overall costs, leading to high investment costs by the company. The telecom industries prefer using copper cable infrastructure for end-users due to its low cost.

Post COVID-19 Impact on North America RF Over Fiber Market

COVID-19 created a major impact on the North America RF over fiber market as almost every country has opted for the shutdown of every production facility except those dealing in producing the essential goods. The government has taken strict actions such as the shutdown of production and sale of non-essential goods, blocked international trade, and many more to prevent the spread of COVID-19. The only business dealing with this pandemic is the essential services allowed to open and run the processes.

The growth of the North America RF over fiber market is rising due to the government policies to boost international trade post covid. Also, the benefits offered by RF over fiber for optimizing costs and routes are raising the demand for RF over fiber in the market. However, factors such as congestion associated with trade routes and trade restrictions between some nations are restraining the market growth. The shutdown of production facilities during the pandemic has had a significant impact on the market.

Manufacturers are making various strategic decisions to bounce back post-COVID-19. The players are conducting multiple research and development activities to improve the technology involved in the RF over fiber. With this, the companies will bring advanced and accurate solutions to the market. In addition, the government initiatives to boost international trade have led to the market's growth.
