DUBLIN, September 7, 2016 /PRNewswire/ --

Research and Markets has announced the addition of the "Global RF IC Market 2016-2020" report to their offering.

The global RF IC market is forecast to grow at a CAGR of 11.56% during the period 2016-2020.

Commenting on the report, an analyst from the research team said: Growing remote control technologies will be a key trend for market growth. IR remotes accounted for the largest share in the market for most consumer electronic devices. Vendors are increasingly investing in R&D. Some of the major technologies that have emerged for remotes include RF, ZigBee RF4CE, Bluetooth, and Wi-Fi.

Of these emerging technologies, RF is gaining more popularity among smart TV and gaming console manufacturers. Bluetooth is also being employed in certain gaming consoles such as Sony PlayStation 3, which enables users to control applications using motion control technology. Similarly, motion control technology is also being used in remotes for gaming consoles by Samsung and LG. In 2014, Samsung launched a remote for high-end TVs incorporated with touch, motion, and voice control features.

According to the report, advent of carrier aggregation will be a key driver for market growth. Carrier aggregation results in an increase in RF content in smartphoes and tablets. Carrier aggregation combines a wide range of the available spectrum at the same time to increase download and upload speeds.



Though carrier aggregation is not a widespread concept currently, it has already been implemented in South Korea. In 2016, it will also be implemented in the US as well. In Europe and China, full user coverage of LTE networks has resulted in the integration of more than one specific type of surface acoustic wave (SAW) or bulk acoustic wave (BAW) filters, thereby increasing the ASP at the component level.
