The high-power pulsed RF semiconductor device market is primarily driven by several specific sub-segments. For the purposes of this report they are as follows:
• Avionics - Transponders, navigational aids and data communications
• Sub-1 GHz Radar
• L-Band Radar
• S-Band Radar
The end-customers for these devices are primarily the worldwide air traffic control system both airborne and ground-based, and commercial and military radar systems.
The purpose of this study is to forecast the worldwide market for high-power RF semiconductors for pulsed applications. The avionics, L-Band, S-Band and Sub-1 GHz Radar markets for the above devices are examined. The forecast interval is from 2011 to 2016 and the market is forecast in terms of revenue and market share. This study focuses on High Power RF Semiconductors that have greater than 5 watts of peak output power and frequencies of operation up to 3.8 GHz. It does not examine RF power devices that are used for non-pulsed applications except for low-power driver chains for high-power pulsed devices.
