MARKET OVERVIEW
The $88.17 Billion Global Market for Communications-based Semiconductors to Grow to $157.22 Billion by 2017
The Next Generation of Mobile Communications Offers Vast Scope for the Application of Semiconductors
Communications technology in most countries has evolved far beyond a simple voice service to encompass video broadcasting. The need for improved functionality, particularly in smart phones and long-term evolution (LTE) phones, has multiplied the RF components in mobile phones, which, in turn, has raised the cost share of these components in the baseband module. However, the demand for added functionality and the technical complexity of integrating many components onto a single module poses a significant technical challenge in the design of smart phones. This issue can be assuaged to some extent through outsourcing and the complete integration of RF semiconductor components. “Higher mobile sales, specifically in the Asia Pacific, owing to new features and innovative technology have encouraged the adoption of mobile applications,” says the analyst of this research. “This, in turn, has enhanced the global demand for RF semiconductors.”
As the communication industry accounts for almost 27.0 percent of the total semiconductor sales worldwide, a robust understanding of the handset industry is vital for OEMs. The recovering economy has also prompted corporate and enterprise users to expand their portfolio of applications and adopt new technology devices. As the new-age devices employ semiconductors, market participants will be able to generate higher revenue, which can be channeled into new application areas, specifically in the wireless segment. “With the advancements in mobile technology, there has been an increased delivery of services, particularly in developing nations such as China, Japan, and parts of South America and Europe,” notes the analyst. “The lower costs and intense competition in the semiconductor market have thrown the spotlight on industry partnerships and technological advancements.” These new market trends offer manufacturers a chance to tap the potential of the market and expand their market presence.
