Demand for Additional Backhaul Capacity Drives the Millimeter Wave Equipment Market, According to New Report by Global Industry Analysts, Inc.
San Jose, CA (PRWEB) July 22, 2013
Follow us on LinkedIn – Millimeter waves (Mm-wave) are a part of the electromagnetic spectrum falling in the frequency range of 30GHz – 300GHz. Initially deployed for defense and research based applications, Mm-wave technology today finds use in a range of applications including automotive radars, airport scanners and surveillance systems, weather forecasting applications, radio broadcasting, cell phone transmissions, and telecommunication links. The main feature of Mm-wave technology is its unique resolution. The short wavelength along with significant bandwidth and transmission features of mm-waves enables use of small-sized antennas which is critical in dense urban deployments. In the coming years, Mm-waves are poised to gain momentum largely due to factors such as technological advancements and the exploding growth in media technology coupled with consumer inclination towards high-bandwidth connectivity.
Mobile backhaul is expected to be the major growth driver for millimeter wave equipment. The market is expected to witness a surge in demand with increase in deployment of high capacity mobile backhaul solutions in metros along with high cell density following the deployment of 4G network. As more consumers shift to smartphones and explore applications such as social networking, mobile enterprise, and entertainment, the need for additional network capacity and speed is on the rise. Also, increasing volumes of high-definition content, VOD and other personalized video services, and growth in data volumes being transmitted through communication networks is pushing demand for greater bandwidth. Conventional networks are being strained to address the growing requirements of network enablers and users. With the mobile industry exploring heterogeneous wireless networks, Millimeter waves, due to high frequency characteristics are evolving as an ideal solution for small cell backhaul problems. The evolution of next generation 4G/LTE networks and the growing need for backhaul solutions that offer lowest TCO to carriers, at the same time high scalability to address the exploding data traffic offers a strong business case for millimeter wave (Mm-wave) equipment.
With X-ray security scanners facing a lot of flak from regulatory authorities raising doubts about the scanners’ performance and effect when exposed to human skin, millimeter wave technology is gaining ground in scanning devices. Further, given its unique benefits, research is underway to deploy millimeter wave technology for non-destructive inspection in addition to food inspection and security measures. Also, Mm-wave radars that find extensive use in automotive safety devices in luxury vehicles are gradually penetrating the middle tier vehicle segment.
As stated by the new market research report on Millimeter Wave Equipment, the United States represents the largest market worldwide. Asia-Pacific represents the fastest growing market with a robust CAGR of 67% over the analysis period.

Global Fertilizers and Agricultural Chemicals Manufacturing Industry Market Research Report from IBISWorld has Been Updated
Los Angeles, CA (PRWEB) July 05, 2013
The Global Fertilizers and Agricultural Chemicals Manufacturing industry produces synthetic fertilizers, pesticides and other agricultural chemicals. As such, it plays an essential role in ensuring that the world’s agricultural production systems are economically efficient in the short term and sustainable in the long term. According to IBISWorld Industry analyst Radia Amari, “over much of the past decade, the industry enjoyed moderate growth led by three main growth drivers: feed, food and biofuels.” Following a marked contraction in 2009, fertilizer and agrochemical demand has rebounded strongly in traditional markets and emerging markets, where food pressures have led to calls for higher agricultural productivity and crop yields. Industry production also has continued to recover from the depressed levels of 2008 and 2009, although it is still operating below installed capacity. Tight agricultural commodity markets and relatively high agricultural prices are benefiting the industry. Industry revenue is expected to grow at an annualized rate of 1.6% to $ 150.9 billion over the five years to 2013, including expected growth of 2.5% in 2013. Global debt concerns are weighing on industry performance. At the same time, the industry will continue to contend with a changing climate, food security issues and establishing a green economy.
Over the next five years, the industry’s performance will hinge on the strong demand growth expected from emerging economies in Asia and the Americas, and new industry operations in Asia, Africa and the Middle East. Farmers will increasingly demand industry products as farm production increases. “Prices will also grow over the next five years, which will further expand industry revenue,” says Amari. Any continued volatility in energy and agricultural commodity prices will also affect the industry. Within the pesticide segment, variables like the flow-on effects of biotechnology developments and the growing sizes of the areas dedicated to genetically modified (GM) crops will impact industry demand. From 2013 to 2018, industry revenue is forecast to grow. The industry is expected to display a lower degree of volatility, but demand and supply imbalances will influence industry performance on a year-to-year basis.
The Global Fertilizers and Agricultural Chemicals Manufacturing industry has a low level of market share concentration. However, concentration levels will vary between product segments. For example, within the pesticide segment, the top six producers (i.e. BASF, Bayer, Dow, DuPont, Monsanto and Syngenta) are estimated to supply the majority of the global market. Within the fertilizer product segment, there are 10 companies that dominate: PotashCorp, Mosaic, Uralkali, Belaruskali, OCP, Yara, CF Industries, Israel Chemicals, Agrium and the K&S Group. Industry consolidation has increased over the past years as an increasing number of operators have merged or been acquired. For example, BASF acquired the Sorex Group in 2008.

Growing Popularity of Soundbars & Wireless Speakers Drive the Global Loudspeakers Market, According to New Report by Global Industry Analysts, Inc.
San Jose, California (PRWEB) June 13, 2013
Follow us on LinkedIn – As a component of music systems, loudspeakers assume significant importance as the quality of the sound reproduced depends on the technological sophistication of the speaker system. Demand for loudspeakers primarily depends on consumer spending on audio entertainment devices. Penetration levels of audio equipment such as DVD/CD Players, Blu-Ray Devices, MP3 players, Home Theater Systems, PCs, LCDs, LEDs, and other multimedia devices therefore dictate market prospects for speakers.
The market is poised to benefit from the growing consumer preference for in-home entertainment systems. Indicating change in consumer lifestyle and choice of entertainment, the trend towards At-Home Entertainment is fast gaining strength. Against the backdrop of volatile economic conditions, watching movies, listening to favorite music, or playing games at home is proving to be an economical option in comparison to expensive leisure pursuits such as vacations, dining out or watching movie screenings. The trend directly boosts demand for sophisticated loudspeakers that can enhance audio from TV shows, digital movies or games. Also encouraging growth in the market is the rising adoption of high-end home theater systems, which creates significant opportunities for satellite/subwoofer systems, in-wall speakers and soundbars. Huge demand for home automation solutions among luxury homeowners also creates demand for strategically placed outdoor speakers.
The market also stands to benefit from the robust pace of technology developments. Loudspeakers, over the years, have undergone immense transformation to incorporate the latest technologies and innovations. Among the various developments is the wireless technology that is gaining widespread adoption the world over. Changing consumer preferences, lifestyles, and media consumption habits are driving the acceptance of a range of new, innovative and non-traditional solutions for media playback. Growing demand for mobility, increasing proliferation of connected devices and rising penetration of Wi-Fi networks is making wireless connectivity a standard feature in urban households. While ‘audio quality’ has long been the only product feature influencing consumer purchase decisions, the future will witness the speakers’ ability to wirelessly connect with mobile devices as a key deciding factor. Wi-Fi and Bluetooth enabled speakers are therefore growing in popularity and are boosting market prospects for the overall market. Growing preference for wireless connectivity can be put to perspective by the fact that almost all speaker categories, including soundbars, mobile docking speakers, and even in-wall units are now being re-designed to incorporate wireless connectivity.
As stated by the new market research report on Loudspeakers, Europe represents the largest market worldwide both in terms of volume and dollar sales. The United States represents the fastest growing market with volume sales in the country projected to grow at a CAGR of 9.5% over the analysis period. Given their cost of ownership, satellite/subwoofer speakers continue to remain the largest speaker category in terms of dollar sales, while soundbars represent the fastest growing market with dollar sales waxing at a CAGR of 21% over the analysis period.
Key players covered in the report include Altec Lansing LLC, Amaoto Industrial Co., Ltd., B&W Group Ltd., Bose Corporation, Boston Acoustics Inc., Cerwin-Vega!, Creative Technology Ltd., Cambridge SoundWorks, DEI Holdings Inc., First Audio Manufacturing (H.K.) Ltd., Focal JM-Lab, Focus Audio Inc., German Physiks, Harbeth Audio Ltd., Harman International Industries Inc., Jean-Marie Reynaud, Mårten, Maxxsonics USA Inc., Nortek Inc., Niles Audio Corporation, SpeakerCraft Inc., Opera Loudspeakers, Pioneer Corporation, QLN AB, Quadral GmbH & Co.
