Radio Modem Market for ITS Application - Global Forecast to 2020

“Reliability and cost efficiency will drive the radio modem market”
The global radio modem market for ITS application is estimated at USD 105.1 million in 2015, and is expected reach USD 160.8 million by 2020. The radio modem market is driven by various factors such as minimal infrastructure requirements and independent and privately-owned networks. Moreover, an ITS requires wireless communications to improve its processes and is implementing wireless networks that are cost-effective, flexible, and smaller in size, thereby making radio modems the right choice for concerned applications.
“The license-free frequency type has the maximum traction during the forecast period”
Radio modems that operate at license-free frequency are expected to hold the largest share during the forecast period. The penetration of point to multi-point radios is approximately threefold as that of point to point radios, according to this market analysis. In most countries, license-free frequencies are readily available, thereby enabling easy implementation; however, at the same time, the same frequency may be used by other users, thus making it possible that the given frequency is disturbed or blocked. Even within the license-free frequencies spectrum, there are still regulatory requirements placed on the RF equipment. The TS4000 radio modem can be used without a license, but with some restrictions, in the U.S., on five specific VHF frequencies under the MURS (Multi-Use Radio System) rules of the Federal Communications Commission (FCC). The MURS rules allow voice or data communications for personal or business activities of the general public.
