Arbitrary Waveform Generator Market Drivers and Opportunities

Rising Demand in Electronic Test Equipment to Favor the Market

The electronic test and measurement (T&M) equipment is growing, driven by new high-speed digital standards, data centers, autonomous driving, 5G, Internet of Things (IoT), and power applications. The technologies that are moving through the stages of product lifecycle development, manufacture, and deployment have started the next wave of growth. Demand will increase across all verticals due to increased complexity and technological convergence, with the industrial and automotive verticals seeing the greatest growth and the communications, semiconductor, and computer industries offering the biggest prospects. With the current test instruments' physical limits, transmission speeds cannot keep up with the increasing demand for faster data transfer rates in telecom and data centers. This has led to an increase in the market's need for arbitrary waveform generators.

Applications in the Aerospace and Defense Sector

To confirm that their radar is accurately processing targets and to assess the effectiveness of the baseband to microwave up the conversion chain, radar system designers must provide test waveforms. JTRS demands narrowband frequency agile transmissions for communication systems. The designers of satellite communication systems must deal with expanding information bandwidths. Designers need to produce high-fidelity signals in addition to simulating reference waveforms for all of these applications, which calls for a wideband arbitrary waveform generator. The major emerging applications for AWG in the aerospace and defense sector are Radar tests, satellite tests, military communications, RF environment simulation, and general receiver tests.
