The SON (Self-Organizing Networks) Ecosystem: 2016 =96 2030 =96 Opportuniti= es, Challenges, Strategies & Forecasts (Report) Hello Let me offer you the latest SNS Research report to you and your team, "The = SON (Self-Organizing Networks) Ecosystem: 2016 =96 2030 =96 Opportunities, = Challenges, Strategies & Forecasts" Below is the report highlight and if yo= u like I can send you sample pages for your details inside.=20 =20 We estimates that despite challenges relating to implementation complexitie= s and multi-vendor interoperability, SON revenue is expected to grow to mor= e than $5 Billion by the end of 2020. Report Information: Release Date: Oct 2016 Number of Pages: 247 Number of Tables and Figures: 61 Key Questions Answered: How big is the SON and mobile network optimization ecosystem=3F How is the ecosystem evolving by segment and region=3F What will the market size be in 2020 and at what rate will it grow=3F What trends, challenges and barriers are influencing its growth=3F Who are the key SON vendors and what are their strategies=3F What is the outlook for QoE based SON solutions=3F How can SON ease the deployment of unlicensed LTE small cells=3F What SON capabilities will 5G networks entail=3F What is the outlook for C-SON and D-SON adoption=3F How will SON investments compare with those on traditional mobile network o= ptimization=3F What opportunities exist for SON in mobile core and transport networks=3F=20 How will SON use cases evolve overtime in 3GPP releases=3F Which regions will see the highest number of SON investments=3F How much will mobile operators invest in SON solutions=3F What is the outlook for SON associated OpEx savings by region=3F Key Findings: The report has the following key findings: Despite challenges relating to implementation complexities and multi-vendor= interoperability, SON revenue is expected to grow to more than $5 Billion = by the end of 2020, exceeding conventional mobile network optimization reve= nue by a significant margin. Mobile operators have reported up to a 50% reduction in dropped calls and o= ver 20% higher data rates with SON implementation. Besides common network o= ptimization use cases, operators are also capitalizing on SON platforms to = address critical business objectives such as refarming 2G/3G spectrum for L= TE networks. In a bid to differentiate their products, Wi-Fi access point OEMs are begin= ning to integrate SON features such as plug-and-play deployment, autonomous= performance optimization, self-healing and proactive defense against unaut= horized access. =20 SON platforms are moving from reactive systems to more advanced implementat= ions that incorporate predictive analytics technology to make necessary cha= nges to a network before any degradation occurs. Infrastructure and software incumbents are continuing to acquire smaller es= tablished C-SON players to accelerate their entry path into the C-SON marke= t.
