DESCRIPTION

With communication service providers developing strategies to offload mobile traffic to Wi-Fi networks, there is a real need for Wi-Fi testing. This move, primarily driven by the exploding data traffic created by smartphones, indicates that there are strong opportunities for Wi-Fi test equipment manufacturers globally. Smartphones, which accounted for only 27 percent of total global handsets in 2013, contributed to 95 percent of total handset data traffic.

Research PREVIEW for the

Global Wi-Fi Test Equipment Market

(NCFA-30)

Cellular Offloading Strategies to Ease Network

Congestion and Drive Wi-Fi Test Equipment Market

• The global Wi-Fi test equipment market will experience

healthy growth and exceed $1 billion in revenue by 2020.

The market is expected to grow at 11.0% CAGR from 2014

to 2020.

• Cellular networks will face a tremendous challenge to cope

with a limited and licensed spectrum. Wi-Fi, which utilizes

the unlicensed spectrum, is the most favorable technology

for offloading demand as it is inexpensive, pervasive, gives

high performance, and has constantly improving standards.

• The risk to service providers of using Wi-Fi for cellular

offload is that unsatisfactory user experiences with Wi-Fi will

result in a loss of high-margin smartphone customers.

• The challenge will be to test offload solutions thoroughly to

provide the best service. This trend will encourage new

innovations in testing for Wi-Fi.
