Wireless Testing Market worth $14.4 billion by 2024
The report "Wireless
Testing Market by Offering (Equipment, Services), Technology
(Bluetooth, 2G/3G, 4G/5G, Wi-Fi), Application (Consumer Electronics,
Automotive, IT & Telecommunication, Medical Devices, Aerospace &
Defense) and Region - Global Forecast to 2024", size was valued at USD 10.4 billion in 2019 and is projected to reach
USD 14.4 billion by 2024; it is expected to grow at a CAGR of 6.7% during the
forecast period. The major driving factors in the wireless testing market are
the adoption of advanced manufacturing techniques that require minimum human
intervention and maintain quality of products and recent advancements in
wireless technologies such as 4G and 5G.
Wireless testing services market is the fastest-growing
market
The primary
objective of wireless testing services is the assessment of the quality and
safety of products to reassure consumers that a manufacturer has followed
national and international regulations and industry standards that ensure
product quality, environmental protection, and public health and safety. Based on
service, the wireless testing market has been segmented into in-house and
outsourced. In-house testing facilities enable companies to carry out quality
assurance programs and control inspections themselves. Wireless testing
services can also be outsourced.
2G/3G/5G wireless device testing connectivity
technologies to hold the largest market share in the wireless testing market
during the forecast period
2G is capable of
carrying out data and voice transmission. 2G uses digital modulation to improve
audio quality and offered encryption. 3G offers improved data transfer rates
and increased voice carrying capacity. This technology supports advanced
services such as MIMO as well as applications such as multimedia. The rise in
the number of subscribers using 3G technology has led to an increase in network
complexity, thereby making it challenging to monitor networks manually. This
has led to an increase in demand for wireless testing of 3G technology to
manage and maintain networks.
Fifth-generation
(5G) technology is 1,000 times faster than 4G. It is expected to lead to a
significant increase in data transfer, which is expected to result in a rise in
the number of network-related issues at the end of users. 5G mobile networks
are expected to be the next telecommunication standards as 5G communication
exhibits advanced characteristics. 5G technology is expected to bring new
unique network and service capabilities. 5G is expected to possess some
inherent complexities as it comprises several elements that work
simultaneously. Failure at any level in 5G networks is expected to lead to
discontinuation of services. To prevent such failures, it is essential to test
5G networks.
Consumer electronics is the fastest-growing application
in wireless testing market during the forecast period
Wireless testing
plays a vital role in the consumer electronics industry, wherein the focus is
on making devices compact and smart. Moreover, every consumer electronic
product requires to be tested for its functioning, safety, and performance
prior to its commercialization. The providers of testing services conduct tests
of different wireless technologies such as Bluetooth, cellular, near-field
communication (NFC), and Wi-Fi, which are incorporated in consumer electronics.
Products such as laptops, tablets, smartphones, and wearables fall under
consumer electronics. With the advancements in LTE, mobile phones have become
increasingly complex with respect to the number of support standards (4G/3G/2G
broadband, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and GPS) and associated frequencies, which require
to be tested, verified, and validated. With new virtual reality/augmented
reality (VR/AR) applications, real-time gaming, and increased use of
smartphones as mobile hot spots, their Wi-Fi performance testing has become
important. Mobile phone Wi-Fi testing is a perfect way to test the power of
Wi-Fi signals at various places in homes or offices.
APAC held the largest market share in wireless testing
market between 2019 and 2014
The growth of the
wireless testing market in APAC is driven mainly by the growth of the
smartphone market in the region. APAC is witnessing dynamic changes in terms of
the adoption of new technologies across various industries. 5G technology is
expected to play an integral role in advanced technologies such as IoT and M2M.
China, Japan, and India are emerging as high growth countries in the wireless
testing market due to an increase in the spending of mobile operators and
rapidly growing mobile subscriber base. In Japan, the rising demand for
wireless network testing is mainly attributed to the huge deployments of 4G/LTE
networks.
