Presence of a copious number of big and small players makes the global free space optics (FSO) market highly dynamic. The market is being primarily driven by the growing demand for high bandwidth and increasing application of free optics in military application. In addition, growing usage of free space optics in 3G and 4G networks and quick and easy installation of this technology is also positively impacting the market.

Posing a hindrance to the global free space optics market is the environmental interference or atmospheric attention affecting the signal quality. Serving to tackle the problem is the laser auto tracking devices, multi-beam, multi-path architecture, and hybrid dual mode RF technology to mitigate the effects of atmospheric attenuation. Therefore, the global market is expected to witness steady growth during the forecast period.

As per a report by Transparency Market Research, the global free space optics market will rise at a phenomenal CAGR of 32.5% from 2017 to 2025. Expanding at this pace, the market which was worth US$92.2 mn in 2016 will likely become worth US$1.07 bn by 2025.

Data Transmission Key Application Segment on Account of Security Accorded by FSO

Depending upon application, the key segments of the global free space optics market are storage area network, data transmission, defense, security, airborne applications, healthcare, disaster recover, last mile access, etc. Of them, the application of free space optics for data transmission accounted for maximum share in the market. This because the data transmitted through free space optics is more secure compared to RF or other wireless transmission technologies. Hence, it is preferred over the conventional wireless technologies. The data can be transmitted over an encrypted connection, which adds to the degree of security available in FSO data transmission.

The application free space optics in the defense sector comes in the second position. The deployment of FSO technology in this application area has been persistent, owing to its high bandwidth capacity, low bit error rates, less power consumption and high communications security which are of utmost importance in defense applications. In the years ahead, growing demand from other application areas such as healthcare and airborne applications among other is expected to bolster the market growth.
