Millimeter Wave Technology Market

According to Stratistics MRC, the Global Millimeter Wave Technology Market is accounted for $1,281.42 million in 2023 and is expected to reach $10,636.0 million by 2030 growing at a CAGR of 35.3% during the forecast period. Millimeter-wave electromagnetic technology is used in a variety of products, including phones, cars, medical equipment, and others, to enable faster wireless broadband communications. It is referred to as extremely high frequency (EHF) because the signal spectrum it exhibits spans from 30 GHz to 300 GHz with a wavelength range of 1 to 10 mm. Moreover, security in communication transmission is provided by millimeter wave technology. Multimeter wave technology is increasingly being used in the healthcare and aerospace industries due to rising demand for imaging devices, networks, monitors, and, most importantly, security.

According to Ericsson, 5G subscriptions are expected to surge globally between 2019 and 2027, rising from over 12 million to over 4 billion. Subscriptions are predicted to be highest in South East Asia, North East Asia, India, Nepal, and Bhutan.



Market Dynamics:

Driver:

Increased demand for faster data transmission

The global Millimeter Wave Technology market expected to drive growth during the forecast period. It has become necessary to implement work-from-home policies in numerous cities and nations. The BPO and IT industries have worked to implement a more seamless transition for thousands of employees to work from home. The likelihood of a network bottleneck has increased as a result, though. In order to increase throughput, users are increasing their internet speed. To provide the best possible service, ISPs are also attempting to locate full node locations and split them. Additionally, along with the rising number of electronic devices and connections, the bandwidth demand is also increasing. In a world where there is a greater need for data traffic, mesh networks are probably the next investment option for ISPs to ensure speed and access.

Restraint:

Environmental Effects

The global Millimeter Wave Technology market expected to hinder growth during the forecast period. One of the crucial conditions for millimeter wave technology is the quick deployment of a 5G network. The millimeter wave technology used by the 5G network allows for faster communication. However, due to its short range, it can be obstructed by walls or buildings. Additionally, it is impacted by air pollutants and interfered with by electrical towers, which is bad for people, animals, and trees. Morever, the deployment of 5G networks in developed nations like the U.S., Germany, Canada, and France inevitably raises the demand for millimeter wave technology and is detrimental to people, pets, and the environment. Such elements limit market expansion.

Opportunity:

Discovery of new applications in the aerospace and defense sectors

The global Millimeter Wave Technology market expected to drive growth during the forecast period. Millimeter-wave technology is finding new uses in the aerospace and defense industries. Another significant application that is anticipated to expand over the next six years is satellite communication, where it is anticipated that unallocated E- and V-band spectra will be used. For secure and unbroken communication in the presence of hostile threats, missile guidance systems, and other weapons, millimeter wave is used in a number of military applications. Moreover, a number of military organizations, including the Air Force Research Laboratory (AFRL) and the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA), have entered the millimeter wave technology market as a result of the lack of unallocated spectrum in the microwave frequency.

Threat:

Challenges related to millimeter wave physical characteristics

The global Millimeter Wave Technology market expected to hamper growth during the forecast period. The spectrum is expanded by millimeter waves. However, the millimeter-wave spectrum was unused until recently because only a small number of electronic devices could transmit or receive it. Millimeter waves are difficult to produce and receive, but the bigger problem with these high frequencies is the traveling medium. Another important challenge is poor foliage penetration, in addition to atmospheric and free-space path loss. Additionally, the few obstacles for the market are physical parameters like mechanical resonance, scattering, and non-line-of-sight issues.

Covid-19 Impact:

The market for millimeter wave technology was negatively impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. The mmWave technology market suffered as a result of the severe lockdowns announced all over the world and the subsequent supply chain disruptions. The installations and expansion plans of the market participants were unintentionally impacted by this. Additionally, the global pandemic's arrival caused a delay in the execution of several 5G projects. The suspension of spectrum issuance and auctioning during the lockdown was the cause of the 5G delay. The pandemic had a significant impact on other application sectors, including automotive and transportation as well as electronics technology, and as a result, these industries saw a decrease in demand for mmWave technology.

The Mobile & Telecom (5g Cellular) segment is expected to be the largest during the forecast period

During the forecast period, it is anticipated that the Mobile & Telecom (5g Cellular) segment will have the largest revenue share. Spectrum bandwidth and utilization are both significantly increased by millimeter wave technology. The telecom industry has undergone a revolution thanks to the widespread adoption of millimeter-wave technology. However, due to their capacity for gigabit-per-second data transmission, millimeter waves are also revolutionizing fifth-generation (5G) cellular communication.

The 24 GHz to 57 GHz segment is expected to have the highest CAGR during the forecast period

The 24 GHz to 57 GHz segment is anticipated to expand at the highest CAGR during the forecast period. For mobile radio services, the frequency spectrum bands from 24 GHz to 57 GHz are the most common. Significant economies of the world like the US, the UK, and Germany are turning their attention to the 24 GHz to 57 GHz spectrum bands as a result of the rise in Internet of Things (IoT) device usage around the globe and the rise in demand for broadband services for commercial and residential industry verticals along with 5G connectivity. The potential frequency bands of networking technologies are being invested in by major market players at an opportune time. Moreover, the 24 GHz to 57 GHz frequency range is primarily used for licensed bands and for telecommunication, satellite communication, and automotive connectivity technologies, among other things.

Region with largest share:

North America was in the lead and contributed the largest revenue share in the millimeter wave technology market. The expansion of technological acceptance in the region is responsible for the growth of the millimeter wave technology market in North America. The United States and Canada are two well-known early adopters of new and developing technologies. Additionally, the area is home to a number of significant market players who are leveraging the area's growth. As a result, these variables open up opportunities for MMW technology in a variety of regional applications, fueling its growth over the forecast period.

Region with highest CAGR:
