Embedded Antenna Systems Market Outlook – 2031
The Global Embedded Antenna Systems Market was valued at $3.4 billion in 2021, and is projected to reach $12.7 billion by 2031, growing at a CAGR of 14.3% from 2022 to 2031.
An antenna is a specialized transducer that converts radio-frequency (RF) fields into alternating current (AC) or vice-versa. Embedded antennas are special category of antennas which use metamaterials to increase the performance of miniaturized antenna systems. The main purpose of these antennas is to launch energy into free space. The metamaterial makes the antenna behave as if it was much larger than it really is, because the antenna structure stores energy and re-radiates. Conventional antennas that are very small compared to the wavelength reflect most of the signal back to the source. On the contrary, embedded antenna designs incorporating metamaterials can step-up the antenna’s radiated power. Advanced lithography techniques are used to print metamaterial elements on the PCB of the device. These antenna systems have a wide variety of applications including portable interaction with satellites, wide-angle beam steering, emergency communications devices, micro-sensors and portable ground-penetrating radars to search for geophysical features and others.
