Ultra-Wideband Transponders Market - Forecasts from 2025 to 2030

The Ultra-Wideband Transponders Market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 14% (2022-2030).

Ultra-wideband (UWB) is a wireless communication system that uses radio waves like Bluetooth and Wi-Fi. The UWB transmitter sends radio pulses across the wide spectrum frequency, and a UWB receiver then translates the pulses into data.

The market is driven by UWB applications such as theft protection, high precision of position determination, and growing usage in the Internet of Things (IoT) and Real-Time Location Systems (RTLS). The advantage of UWB is that it does not cause interference within the band and is not disturbed by other transmissions. UWB transmits information using weak individual pulses. Further, technological advancements expand the market, such as Samsung Electronics, which announced its first UWB chipset, the Exynos Connect U100, in March 2023. The new UWB solution is optimized for use in mobile, automotive, and IoT devices with single-digit centimeter accuracy.

Market Trends

• Expanding Automotive Industry Use: Global vehicle production rose by 10% in 2023 compared to the previous year, according to the OICA (International Organization of Motor Vehicle Manufacturers). Ultra-wideband (UWB) transponders are increasingly used in automotive communication as a 'Digital Key solution,' enabling smartphone-based vehicle locking, unlocking, and starting through wireless technology integrating Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) and UWB. The automotive sector remains a key growth driver, fueled by consumer demand for enhanced connected car experiences.
• Real-Time Location Systems (RTLS): RTLS employs positioning and localization techniques to track and update target locations in real time. UWB technology facilitates precise signaling between devices, using accurate time-of-flight measurements to deliver reliable real-time location tracking.
• North American Market: The ultra-wideband transponder market in North America is expanding due to applications in industries such as automotive, automated manufacturing, household devices, and the increasing demand for real-time locating systems.
