ABI Research discusses issues inherent in the current design of Radio Access Network architecture (RAN) and the current increase of mobile Internet traffic due to smart phones. They investigate a new architecture that will effect the micro-, pico-, and femtocell- layers of existing cell sites.
ABI looks into several areas including:
- Bandwidth Capacity Crunch

- Macrocell Overlay
- Optimization of Site Equipment
- Compact Base Stations
- New Technologies for Cell Sites
- Revenues by Site Classification and by Technology
