A radio frequency power amplifier or RF power amplifier is a type of electronic amplifier that converts a low-power radio-frequency signal into a higher power signal. Generally, RF power amplifiers propel the antenna of a transmitter. The design goals often include gain, power output, bandwidth, power efficiency, linearity, input and output impedance matching, and heat dissipation. Latest RF power amplifiers use solid-state devices such as bipolar junction transistors and MOSFETs.
North America RF Power Amplifier Market Segments Size & Growth:
North America RF power amplifier market size is projected to reach approximately $XX billion by the end of 2024 with a CAGR of close to XX% from $XX billion in 2017 during the forecast timeline 2018-2024. Key parameters promoting the market growth include increasing adoption of consumer electronics, proliferating penetration of 4G technology, emergence of next-generation wireless network such as 5G, increasing usage of long-term evolution(LTE), and increasing usage of RF power amplifier in lighting applications. However, increasing cost of RF power amplifier with performance improvement, and reduced-price margin due to highly fragmented market are thereby hampering the market growth.
An increasing use of consumer electronics is witnessing in North America, especially in smartphones and tablets. The consumer electronics market which includes smartphones and tablets is furthermore expected to witness high growth during the forecast period. Consumer electronics being a major application of RF power amplifiers will therefore drive the North America RF power amplifiers market. High cost associated with RF power amplifiers act as a primary restraint for the North America RF power amplifier’s market, limiting its adoption. In addition to this, large size and high power consumption is
North America RF Power
North America RF, power amplifier market, is categorised into type, which comprises solid-state RF power amplifier, and vacuum tube RF power amplifiers. Among them, solid-state RF power amplifier holds the largest share in the market due to the technological advancements and various other advantages. Solid state RF power amplifiers have started replacing vacuum tube RF power amplifiers. Vacuum tube RF power amplifiers are although preferred at places under high electrical overloads, because of its electrically robust tubes. On the basis of technology, the market is segmented into gallium arsenide (GaAs), gallium nitride (GaN), and silicon germanium (SiGe), and complementary metal – oxide – semiconductor (CMOS). On the basis of frequency, the market is segmented into less than 20 GHz, 20-60 GHz, and greater than 60 GHz.
On the basis of application, the market is segmented into RF communication systems, electronic warfare, unmanned aircraft systems (UAS), broadband RF telemetry, software defined radios, unmanned ground vehicles (UGV). On the basis of end-users, the market is segmented into consumer electronics, aerospace & defense, automotive, healthcare, and others. Among them, consumer electronics segment holds the largest share in the market because of the growing use of smartphones and the demand for faster data rates are the major drivers for the RF power amplifiers in the consumer electronics sector. On the basis of Geography, USA and Canada are projected to hold the largest share in the market during the forecast period due to high development and adoption of automation in the manufacturing sector
