Widespread adoption of 5G networks will generate profitable opportunities for millimeter wave technology market players, says Fact.MR in its latest market report.

The global millimeter wave technology market is set to reach a size of US$ 3.19 billion in 2024 and thereafter increase at a CAGR of 20.4% to climb to a value of US$ 20.41 billion by the end of 2034.

Technological breakthroughs in digital network connections link several devices enhancing the growth of the healthcare, education, automotive, and consumer electronics markets. Integration of autonomous millimeter wave technology in such devices is also gaining momentum.

Electromagnetic technology or millimeter waves in smartphones, automobiles, and other electronic gadgets assure greater speed of wireless broadband connections. These millimeter wave devices operate over extremely high frequency (EHF) since they display signal spectrum ranging from 30 GHz to 300 GHz within a narrow band of wavelength between 1 to 10 mm. Thus, millimeter wave technology is witnessing increasing acceptance by both industrial and commercial sectors for delivering wireless communication through smart devices and wearables.

Why is Millimeter Wave Technology the Talk of the Town?

“High Application in Military and Aerospace Products”

Millimeter wave radar and satellite communication systems are gaining momentum in consumer and commercial applications. Due to the increasing focus on providing 5G mmWave technology in rural areas, this segment is projected to exhibit high growth during the forecasted period.

Utilization of millimeter wave technology in military and aerospace is mainly attributed to radar and satellite communication typically used during combat situations. Transformation of the trans-border warfare over the digital space is leading to high investments in the research and development of millimeter wave radar automotive that can be deployed at strategic locations. Evolution of radar sensors is predicted to augment the sales of millimeter wave technologies and expand its utility in various other sectors as well.

What Challenges Are Faced in Millimeter Wave Technologies?

“Small Area of Networking and Concerns over Environment”

Though millimeter wave technology is capable of providing an appreciably higher rate of data transfer than the previous generation wave bands, its small area of networking is limiting the overall industry growth. The millimeter wave signals are also incapable of bouncing off of physical objects and get absorbed failing the transmission. Such disadvantages are speculated to be a major obstacle in the millimeter wave technology market growth.

High cost of operation owing to the requirement for more network points is also a leading challenge faced by millimeter wave companies. There have been several instances of concern over mmWave impact on the environment and climate, which is hampering the propagation of this new technology.
