Worldwide WLAN Semiconductor 2005-2009 Forecast

Product Type: Market Research Report
Published by: IDC
Published: April 2005
Product Code: R104-19620
Description

This IDC study examines the market for components going into 802.11 WLAN client and infrastructure markets. This includes 802.11b, 802.11a, 802.11g, dual-band 802.11a+b/g chipsets, and 802.11 "pre-n" components shipping into various client-side applications and access point devices. IDC forecasts WLAN semiconductor revenue will increase from $1.2 billion in 2004 to $3.0 billion by 2009, a 21% compound annual growth rate (CAGR).

"The WLAN semiconductor forecast continues to look strong due to new end-market opportunities such as consumer and mobile devices as well as technology advancements such as multiple in, multiple out (MIMO), which extend bandwidth and range." ? Celeste Crystal, senior research analyst, Semiconductors
