North America dominated the global RF power meters market in 2021 due to rising demand from the electronics and communication equipment sectors. RF power meters are most commonly used in the regional electronics industry. The need to test and measure the performance of electronic components and circuits is the main factor driving the demand for RF power meters in this regional market. In North America, RF power meters are employed in various industries, including automotive, information technology, telecommunications, and medical apparatus.
The market for RF power meters in the United States is expected to grow substantially during the forecast period. The increasing use of RF power meters by academic research institutions in the United States represents a substantial growth opportunity. RF power meters are widely used in scientific research in the United States. They are employed in investigating electromagnetic radiation and its impacts on the matter. In the country, RF power meters are used in various research applications, such as studying the interaction of electromagnetic fields with living tissue, investigating the health effects of the electromagnetic spectrum, and developing new communication technologies.
Itron is a major provider of basic, digital, smart, and RF power meters, data collection systems, and utility software systems. Its RF power metering systems incorporate automated meter reading (AMR) and advanced metering infrastructure (AMI) technologies to monitor electricity, moisture, and fuel efficiency. The main players in the global RF power meters market are acquiring regulatory approvals, developing technologically advanced products, launching new products, and entering into merger and partnership agreements with other companies. For instance, in January 2020, Honeywell announced that it would incorporate Verizon's LTE Managed Connectivity service into smart RF power meters and other devices to achieve the next generation of the smart grid. This secure and reliable collaboration with internet of things devices has enabled Honeywell to provide a wireless network platform to its customers as part of its smart RF power meters services, software, and hardware.
RF power meters are used in various research applications, including studying the interaction of electromagnetic fields with living tissue, investigating the health effects of electromagnetic radiation, and developing new communication technologies. The major factors driving the demand for RF power meters are technological advancements related to the device. Many end-users are drawn to technological advancements such as remotely controlled RF power operation, high display resolution, and automatic self-balancing capability. For instance, renowned RF power meter manufacturer Agilent Technologies Inc. has created a portable tool that can be used in labs and outdoors.
Key RF power meter market players are focusing their investments on technologically advanced, cost-effective, and more secure products and solutions for a wide range of applications. For instance, in January 2020, Landis+Gyr invested in and launched Revelo RF power meters with advanced grid sensing technology. Likewise, Landis+Gyr invested USD 2 million for a 3% equity stake in Sense Labs Inc. in January 2021. Sense develops and sells electronic RF power meters for evaluating electricity usage in homes in the United States and the software that goes with them.
General Electric, Schneider Electric, Honeywell International, Siemens, Itron, Toshiba, Melrose Plc, ABB, and Wasion Group Holdings are major players in the RF power meter market.
RF power meters measure the power output of transmitting devices over specific frequency ranges and energy levels. RF power meters are used in various applications, such as radar, wireless, and satellite communications. The demand for RF power meters in the communication and electronics equipment industries is fueling market expansion. Besides, increasing demand for RF power meters from scientific research institutes drives the market forward.
The global RF power meters market faces significant challenges from rising maintenance and installation costs. Also, the main disadvantage of using heat-based thermistor RF power sensors in RF power meters is that room temperature fluctuations affect the meter readings.
The absorption-type power meter segment is anticipated to grow at the fastest rate in the coming years. The input or output power of an RF signal can be determined by an absorption-type power meter. A directional coupler is used to sample the forward and reflected power in the transmission line. The forward power is then subtracted from the reflected power to determine the absorbed power. The average power over time, pulse width, and peak envelope voltage are all measured by this meter. The absorption-type meter is simple and inexpensive, making it popular for general-purpose measurements.
The North American RF power meters market is expected to expand significantly over the forecast period. The presence of significant regional players also contributes to the market's expansion. The enhanced use of RF power meters by telecom providers and academic research institutions in North America presents a significant growth opportunity in the coming years. The communication equipment industry is the region's second-largest user of RF power meters. The performance of antennas, transmitters, receivers, and other communication system components is tested and measured in this industry using RF power meters.
Furthermore, the Asia Pacific region is anticipated to grow with the fastest CAGR in the global RF power meters market during the forecast period. The rapid adoption of advanced RF power meters and adequate manufacturer presence in regional countries such as India, Japan, and China are also driving market growth. Consistent capital investment in the defense industry and the expansion of communication networks are driving up demand for the device. On the other hand, the growing aviation and electronics industries and the region's frequent need for RF power meters are expected to drive significant market growth during the forecast period.
A variety of consumer and industrial products use electromagnetic energy in some way. Due to its regulatory responsibilities in this area, the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) frequently gets questions about the potential safety risks associated with human exposure to radio-frequency (RF) energy. The National Council on Radiation Protection and Measurements (NCRP) and the American National Standards Institute (ANSI), as well as the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc. (IEEE), have all made recommendations for reducing human exposure to RF power electromagnetic fields. The government's strict guidelines for electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) testing also aid in the market expansion for RF power meters.
The global RF power meter market is anticipated to grow steadily in the coming years by 5.1%. The global RF power meters industry is estimated to be worth $XX million in 2021 and is expected to be worth $XX million by 2028.
