Massive MIMO Market

Market Overview

The Global Massive MIMO Market is anticipated to develop in a considerable way during the outlook period. It is estimated to reach around USD 9.62 billion by 2026 from USD 1.54 billion in 2021, expanding at a growth rate of 38% over the period from 2021 to 2026. Multiple-Input and Multiple-Output, usually called as MIMO, is a procedure that can be used to increase the capacity of a radio link via multiple transmissions and to receive the antennas for exploiting the multipath propagation. This MIMO has become a key element in the wireless communication standards like IEEE 802.11n (Wi-Fi), HSPA+ (3G), WiMAX (4G), IEEE 802.11ac (Wi-Fi), and Long Term Evolution (4G LTE).

This massive MIMO method is utilized in multi-antenna Base Stations (BSs) for serving a large amount of users. Massive MIMO supports for increasing the network capacity and spectral efficiency along with decreasing the wireless network interference.
