The rising adoption of smart and connected devices is anticipated to drive the growth of the radio frequency (RF) structural parts market in the coming years. Smart and connected devices are electronic products integrated with internet connectivity that enable data exchange, communication, and automated or remote-operated functionalities through a network. The increasing adoption of these devices is attributed to the growing need for uninterrupted connectivity and automation, allowing users to streamline everyday activities, improve convenience, and obtain real-time data more effectively. Radio frequency (RF) structural parts provide mechanical support to antennas and RF modules, facilitating consistent wireless communication and optimized signal transmission, thereby improving the efficiency and dependability of smart and connected devices. For example, in July 2025, according to the European Commission, a Belgium-based governing body, approximately 40 billion IoT-connected devices were installed in 2023, and this number is expected to reach 49 billion by 2026, reflecting an annual growth rate of 7%. Hence, the increasing adoption of smart devices and connected devices is contributing to the expansion of the radio frequency (RF) structural parts market.

The rising implementation of 5G networks is projected to accelerate the growth of the radio frequency (RF) surface acoustic wave filters market. The implementation of 5G networks involves the introduction of fifth-generation wireless communication infrastructure designed to provide faster data speeds, reduced latency, and enhanced connectivity capabilities. The worldwide growth of 5G adoption is fueled by increasing requirements for high-speed mobile connectivity, as consumers and industries are adopting data-intensive applications including video streaming, autonomous technologies, and the Internet of Things (IoT), encouraging telecom operators to expand and upgrade network infrastructure. The rapid deployment of 5G networks is increasing the demand for RF SAW filters, as these components play a crucial role in minimizing signal interference and maintaining accurate frequency separation across the broader and more complex frequency ranges utilized in 5G devices and base stations. For instance, in May 2025, according to Ericsson, a Sweden-based telecommunications company, the number of 5G mobile subscriptions is expected to increase from 1.62 billion in 2023 to 6.29 billion by 2030. Therefore, the expanding deployment of 5G networks is supporting the growth of the radio frequency (RF) surface acoustic wave filters market.

The growing investments in broadband network development are expected to drive the growth of the radio frequency (RF) structural parts market during the forecast period. Broadband network investments include financial commitments toward building, upgrading, and expanding high-speed internet infrastructure to deliver faster, more dependable, and broader connectivity. These investments are increasing due to rising demand for high-speed internet access, leading to extensive infrastructure development and modernization initiatives across metropolitan as well as remote areas. The expansion of broadband networks is generating higher demand for RF structural parts used in antennas and communication systems, as these components help ensure effective signal transmission and enable the expansion of communication infrastructure. For example, in April 2024, according to Building Digital UK, a UK-based government agency, a record £714 million ($956.60 million) was invested in 2024 to expand rural broadband connectivity, increasing total investment in next-generation connectivity infrastructure to £1.3 billion ($1.74 billion). Therefore, increasing investments in broadband network expansion are driving the growth of the radio frequency (RF) structural parts market.
