Transparent Antenna Market

Transparent Antenna Market: Introduction

• Transparent antennas are created by configuring metal wiring that is virtually invisible to the naked eye in an ultrafine mesh on a transparent film
• It offers a wide range of features such as optical transmission up to 98%, color neutral haze <1%, designed for frequencies 400 MHz – 92 GHz, applicable on most flexible films (e.g. PET, PC), suitable on most substrates (e.g. glass and, sapphire), and large area applications (up to 300 mm).
• The transparent antenna also provides high conductivity and excellent radiation performance
• For instance, in March 2022, Germany-based smart antenna startup Alcan Systems invented a transparent antenna that can stick on a window to allow high frequency spectrum to get through
• In March 2022, ALCAN and AGC collaborated to develop a transparent antenna for mmWave 5G fixed wireless access
• These features make the transparent antenna highly significant for use in wearable devices and 5G antennas in automotive industries, which in turn is expected to contribute to market growth

Rise in Adoption from Aerospace & Defense Industry

• Based on the end-use industry, the global transparent antenna market can be segmented into aerospace & defense, consumer electronics, automotive and others (energy, IT & telecommunication etc.). The aerospace & defense segment is expected to expand at a rapid pace during the forecast period due to the increasing use of transparent antenna in radar absorbing and scattering and beam steering (including radar detection).
• Transparent antenna is primarily used at indoor walls and ceilings, large monitors, structures such as window glass, and automobile glazing to receive 5G radio waves in a variety of spaces. This factor is significantly driving the demand for transparent antenna in the aerospace & defense segment of the market.
• Rising adoption of transparent antenna for 5G antennas for automated guided vehicles is further propelling the market

North America to Lead Global Transparent Antenna Market

• In terms of region, the global transparent antenna market can be divided into North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, Middle East & Africa, and South America
• North America is expected to hold the largest share of the transparent antenna market during the forecast period due to a rise in demand from aerospace & defense and consumer electronics industries
• Transparent antennas are widely utilized for indoor coverage in museums, restaurants, showroom galleries, ballrooms, hotels, and hospitals with 1700 ~ 5000MHz frequency band
• Rising digitalization & urbanization, the proliferation of the internet of things (IoT), running investment in advanced automotive system & 5G networks, and innovations in portable electronic devices such as e-readers, smartphones, tablets, and flash drives, are other factors propelling the transparent antennas market in North America
• The transparent antenna market in Asia Pacific and Europe is expected to expand at a significant pace during the forecast period due to increasing demand for transparent antenna from diverse industries such as automotive and consumer electronics. Moreover, the growth is anticipated to be driven by leading countries such as, India, China, South Korea, Japan, Germany, France, Spain, and Italy.
• The transparent antenna market in Middle East & Africa and South America is anticipated to grow at a steady pace during the forecast period due to conflict among Syria and Yemen, anti-coup rally in Sudan, low economic diversification, an imperative need to improve education systems and infrastructure, complex political and governance scenarios, and persistently high barriers to the economic and social wellbeing of important sections of society in these regions
