Sensors and other peripherals are substantial power consumers. The energy consumption rate for sensors in a wireless sensor network varies based on the protocols the sensors utilize for communication. While technologies such as ultra-low-power processors, tiny mobile sensors, and wireless networking are available, there is a necessity for competent power management and optical power consumption in IoT devices.
Connectivity load is another grave issue since several devices need to be connected at the same time. For instance, an average smart home may comprise 50–100 connected appliances, lights, thermostats, and other devices, respectively with their power necessities. Devices such as smart meters are also used to make the line power efficient. As a recurrent manual spare of the batteries of thousands of sensors, actuators, and other connected devices within IoT systems is not viable, the key snag is the power management of devices using wireless technologies, such as Wi-Fi.
Consumer Electronics to catch Service Providers’ Eyes in the Forthcoming Future
Owing to growing automation and increasing implementation of technology in gadgets like ACs. Smart TVs, etc to make them easily accessible is bolstering demand for consumer electronics. Besides, swelling sales of netbooks, media tablets, and other “always connected” consumer and industrial electronics products mean equally robust performance in markets for wireless connectivity ICs. Future Market Insights forecasts that shipments of wireless connectivity chipsets will reach a total of approximately three billion units by the end of 2032, a 13.5% shipment increase compared to 2021.
This trend is likely to continue in the coming years, backed by the increasing adoption of smart gadgets among fitness enthusiasts and millennials. Bluetooth upheld its lead among all wireless connectivity chipset categories. Wi-Fi connectivity bags second place with approximately 38% market share. They are likely to attain the highest growth rate among connectivity chipsets, with a 13.5% CAGR between 2022 and 2032.
For technology applications, the swelling demand for Wi-Fi-enabled mobile and consumer electronics gadgets is a principal engine driving market growth. Nowadays almost every netbook, media tablet, and gaming console have Wi-Fi embedded, and in 2021 shipments of Wi-Fi-enabled consumer devices showed an increase of about 15% compared to 2016.
WPAN-based Chipsets likely to capture the Largest Share
The wireless personal area network connectivity technology is based on the IEEE 802.15.4 standard. WPAN is a small area and low bandwidth networking technology that allows transmission within a very short range, which is nearly 10 meters. Tools supporting WPAN comprise Bluetooth, ultra-wideband (UWB), ZigBee, Z-Wave, and Thread. ZigBee is used to create personal area networks with small and low-power digital radios. It has a communication distance of 10–100 meters. ZigBee runs at a frequency of 2.4 GHz. It is ideal for applications that require long battery life, secure networking, sturdiness, and a low data transfer rate.
The development of the market for WPAN-enabled chipsets is encouraged by the advent of the 5th generation of Bluetooth wireless technology. Bluetooth 5 is touted to be 2X faster for low-power applications than the previous version, Bluetooth 4.0. The launch of Bluetooth 5 was a significant milestone in the development not only of the standard in general but also for the arrival of services based on Bluetooth beacons. For users, smartphones and tablets that support the standard of Bluetooth 5.0 have been announced in the market.
A recently published report by Future Market Insights states that the WPAN segment is estimated to expand at a CAGR of 13.6% throughout the forecast period.
