The Global RF Devices market for Smart TV to grow at a CAGR of 12.26% over the period 2013-2018 Smart TV, also known as connected TV or hybrid TV, is a TV with integrated internet capabilities or a TV set-top box that offers advanced connectivity and computing abilities. Smart TV allows users to install and run advanced applications based on specific platforms. RF devices use RF technology and are deployed in various wired and wireless communication devices such as cellphones, tablets, radio sets, and smart TVs. Smart TVs are equipped with RF devices to perform advanced applications such internet browsing, online gaming, web applications, and streaming media and social networking. Depending on the applications, RF devices are designed and developed to work on various frequency bands. The different types of RF devices available in the market are power amplifiers, filters, switches, tuners, and demodulators. One of the prominent emerging trends inthe market is the growing technological convergence. Smart TV original equipment manufacturers are constantly adding new features to their products to gain a competitive edge in the market, resulting in the launch of new and innovative products. This has led to high level of functional integration in smart TVs, enabling consumers to perform multiple functions on a single platform. According to the report, one major factor driving this market is the increasing adoption of smart TVs worldwide. Rise in standards of living, increasing per capita income and disposable income, increasing interest in technologically advanced consumer electronics, continually declining average selling price of smart TVs, and increasing penetration of high-speed internet are some factors increasing the adoption of smart TVs worldwide. Further, the report states that the cyclical nature of the semiconductor industry is one major challenge that the market faces. RF device manufacturers depend on OEMs, which in turn depend on end-users for the sale of smart TVs. As a result of seasonal cycles, the market has witnessed fluctuating demand for consumer electronic goods. This often results in a wide demand-supply gap and an inventory stockpile. Any fluctuations in demand from end-users indirectly affect RF devices manufacturers. In terms of product type, the Global RF Devices market for Smart TV can be divided into the following:
