Research and Markets has announced the addition of the "Global Wireless Sensor Networks Market" report to their offering.
The wireless sensor networks market is in the growth stage of its life cycle.
The networks are used in a large number of end-user industries. The adoption of wireless sensor networks is increasing. Monitoring applications dominate the market and generate the largest revenue with higher growth prospects. Large multinational companies compete strongly in the market, which is highly fragmented.
The automation and process control companies lead the market with higher shares. The convergence of various wireless sensor networks is a key challenge faced by this market. In the long run, it is expected that proprietary wireless networks will be limited to certain niches.
Executive Summary:
With increasing two way wireless communication in the industrial space, wireless sensor networks have attained high level of importance especially in monitoring applications in the industrial process and discrete sectors. A number of protocol developers operate in this market with a fair amount of competition existing among various protocols. With limited number of protocols developed so far, the intensity of competition is low. There is an effort to enforce interoperability of protocols which is expected to facilitate growth in adoption of wireless sensor networks.
Increasingly most parameters are sensed wirelessly especially in industrial plants that are spread over large physical areas. Some of the key parameter (pressure, temperature, and flow) sensing are more of a dynamic measurement, therefore, the sensing instrument as well as the protocols have to be extremely precise in detecting and interpreting the right signal. Developers of wireless sensor networks have been improving them from time to time. Industrial giants such as Honeywell and Emerson have developed their own wireless sensor networks.
