Global Chip Antenna Market Research Report 2023-Competitive Analysis, Status and Outlook by Type, Downstream Industry, and Geography, Forecast to 2029

Global Chip Antenna Market Research Report 2023-Competitive Analysis, Status and Outlook by Type, Downstream Industry, and Geography, Forecast to 2029

Chip antennas are a particular type of antenna valued for their small footprint. They are most commonly integrated in circuit boards to radiate high frequency electromagnetic waves. They have a limited range, making them optimal for small devices such as cell phones and WiFi routers. Chip antennas are most commonly manufactured for frequencies between 300 MHz and 2500 MHz, and this accounts for their limited range as well (usually just a few hundred feet or less).

Market Overview:

The latest research study on the global Chip Antenna market finds that the global Chip Antenna market reached a value of USD 703.5 million in 2022. It’s expected that the market will achieve USD 1028.82 million by 2028, exhibiting a CAGR of 6.54% during the forecast period.

Under the epidemic situation, the digital and mobile service industries ushered in a bright moment. In the short term, covid-19 will definitely have problems in both supply and demand sides and industrial chain, which will bring periodic impacts to network construction, user growth and industrial chain. However, in the medium and long term, the demonstration of the transformation ability of the digital basic application to the industry has greatly promoted the consensus of all sectors of society on the Internet of Things and accelerating digital development. Under the epidemic situation, the society has been hit hard, and it is urgent to find a new way of recovery and growth. The digital technology represented by WiFi is put into it as a brand-new technology. Its value can be shown as follows: isolation measures such as closing the city and extending the holiday have promoted the development of the home economy. Before and after covid-19, consumers' attitudes towards online shopping changed greatly, and the impact of the epidemic was far-reaching. The centralized living at home made great changes to the specific patterns and habits of the whole society in various daily scenes. The surge in online application demand has given birth to a new round of scene revolution. In terms of education, online education has spread rapidly in various places. In terms of work, with the accelerated pace of returning to work and resuming production, telecommuting and video conferencing have become the first choice or auxiliary application tools for many enterprises in order to avoid the infection risks brought by centralized office work. In medical treatment, although telemedicine has not been popularized, more people have used online consultation and other services to minimize on-site visits in hospitals. The epidemic situation not only promotes the demand for new scenes, but also stimulates the demand for upgrading the public network. This makes the demand for digital applications such as WiFi clearer. After the outbreak, the wall-breaking effect of the application scenario will not disappear, and some new scenarios will continue due to new psychological and behavioral habits. Therefore, the application of Chip Antenna market will expand with the increase of mobile subscriptions, mobile users, Wlan/Wifi and applications and communications based on the internet of things in the future.

Growth Drivers

Chip Antenna is made of ceramic and is the smallest discrete built-in antenna available. These antennas can be purchased as separate components, which is one of their main advantages compared with customized solutions such as PCB antennas. Chip Antenna provides many features that help to optimize, including its impedance matching network and the option of extra ground clearance under the antenna to further adjust the frequency tuning.

The antenna performance of the system always needs to be actively measured and tested in RF facilities in advance, especially in the authentication process. For PCB antenna, any adjustment will lead to extra cost and time, because it needs to develop a new PCB iteration. In contrast, the antenna with poor performance needs to simply replace the antenna or adjust its impedance network components to solve this problem. Chip Antenna is the ideal solution for small-sized internet of things applications with strict requirements on PCB size. Chip Antenna are more suitable for small boards, because they usually take up less PCB area, although the size is thicker. Chip Antenna does not need to increase PCB size to integrate them, thus saving manufacturing cost. Chip Antenna also have excellent performance because they are not easily affected by other components or nearby environmental factors. The performance advantages of Chip Antenna are the main factors that make this market expand continuously.

Industry Constraints and Challenges

Although Chip Antenna have their advantages, they still have some disadvantages. One factor is their initial cost, because customers will have to rely on specific manufacturers to provide the components for mass production. Another outstanding challenge of Chip Antenna is that although they are easier to optimize, they are still very sensitive and follow the design rules similar to those of trace antennas in the integration process. Finally, a great deal of RF design expertise is needed to achieve the best system performance.

In addition, the following aspects of Chip Antenna will greatly change the efficiency of the antenna.

On the layout. How components on PCB are spaced and oriented greatly affects the efficiency of Chip Antenna. Chip Antenna depend on the ground plane, which means that they need a ground plane of appropriate size and position to form a complete resonant circuit. A ground plane 3-4 cm long and 1-2 cm wide will produce a dipole, but if the plane is large enough, it will be used as a monopole antenna. Although PCB can be used as the ground plane, the antenna itself needs to be placed on top of the isolation part at the edge of PBC, which has no grounding and metal components, which will distort its radiation. The microstrip line should also be proportional to the ground plane. In addition, the length of the feeder should be as short as possible and perpendicular to the microstrip line, so as to avoid it becoming a parasitic part of the resonant system. Via is a strategically placed through hole in PCB, which can minimize the electric field generated at the edge of PCB.
