Ultra-Wideband Market: Key Drivers, Trends, and Challenges
The growing applications of UWB technology is notably driving the ultra-wideband market growth, although factors such as vulnerability to cyber threats may impede the market growth. Our research analysts have studied the historical data and deduced the key market drivers and the COVID-19 pandemic impact on the ultra-wideband industry. The holistic analysis of the drivers will help in deducing end goals and refining marketing strategies to gain a competitive edge.
Key Ultra-Wideband Market Driver
The growing applications of UWB technology is one of the key drivers supporting the ultra-wideband market growth. UWB is widely used for people positioning in industrial enterprises, for controlling access to restricted areas, and for the real-time monitoring of personnel movements. Commercial and residential access control is the extension of UWB initial activities within the automotive secure-access realm. It tracks the user's exact location in relation to the entrance or exit as well as their security credentials and grants instant, hands-free access without human interaction. It also offers protection from relay attacks, making it extremely suitable for secure-access applications. Such applications are expected to drive the ultra-wideband (UWB) market growth during the forecast period.
Key Ultra-Wideband Market Trend
The adoption of UWB RTLS technology is one of the key trends contributing to the ultra-wideband market growth. The UWB RTLS technology offers high accuracy over short-to-medium distances and is less costly than other RTLS technologies. The technology is also considered to be useful for short-range and low-data-rate communications. UWB has a high data rate that can reach 100 Mbps, which provides a good solution for near-field data transmission. The high potential of UWB RTLS to deliver accurate results in high-ranging applications will benefit end-users. This technology is also useful for applications that require high accuracy because it offers precise locations at less than 300 meters. Such applications will increase the demand for UWS RTLS technology and thereby, driving the ultra-wideband market growth.
Key Ultra-Wideband Market Challenge
Vulnerability to cyber threats is one of the factors hindering the ultra-wideband market growth. UWB generates detailed location data that puts users at risk of hacking and stalking. UWB technology could lead to the creation of a new layer of monopolistic control for a small number of tech giants. Ultrawideband is a powerful tool to build into smartphones without stringent regulations. Since UWB can detect the location within a few centimeters, in the wrong hands, the technology could lead to stalking by an individual or dangerous surveillance by law enforcement agencies. Moreover, the increasing scale in the adoption of connected product environments in UWB to carry out highly critical applications. As more service, software and hardware providers are involved within environments, more data needs to be stored and shared, which increases the scope for attack among cybercriminals. These increasing threats will limit the UWB market growth during the forecast period.
This ultra-wideband market analysis report also provides detailed information on other upcoming trends and challenges that will have a far-reaching effect on the market growth. The actionable insights on the trends and challenges will help companies evaluate and develop growth strategies for 2022-2026.
