Market Definition
An optical power meter is a device that measures electricity and power in an optical signal. It is used to test the average amount of power in fiber optic networks and systems. It consists of a combination and integration of a calibrated sensor, display, and measuring amplifier and display which measures and monitors a range of wavelengths and power levels.
There are two types of optical power meters: thermal detectors and photodetectors. Thermal detectors are a type of optical power meter wherein temperature rise caused by optical radiation is measured. A photodetector measures power levels as low as 1 pW (90 dBm). The main advantage of optical power measurement by using an optical power meter is its easy-to-use feature and low bandwidth requirement for electronics products.
Asia Pacific Optical Power Meter Market Dynamics
This section deals with understanding the market drivers, opportunities, restraints, and challenges. All of this is discussed in detail below:
Drivers
- Increasing Demand for Optical Power Meters
An optical power meter is a device that measures electricity and power in an optical signal. It is used to test the average amount of power in fiber optic networks and systems. It is a combination and integration of a calibrated sensor, display, and measuring amplifier, which measures and monitors the range of wavelengths and power levels. It also helps to determine the power loss incurred by the optical signal while passing through the optical media.
The Asia-Pacific optical power meter market is expected to witness significant growth in the coming years due to the increasing demand for optical power meters. They are widely used in the telecommunication industry, as they provide accurate measurements of the optical power of a fiber-optic cable or system.
- Rise in Requisite of Transmission Quality Evaluation
The transmission network is an important factor in the communication network to provide better consumer services. For the evaluation and monitoring of the quality of the transmission network, there is no general standard. One of the main aims on which the telecommunication industry has a major focus is to transmit signals through the cables with the least disruption, maximum capacity, least noise, low energy consumption, and optimal transmission quality.
Nowadays, different traffic-consumptive services such as ultra HD videos, 3D Televisions, online commerce, cloud computing, and others increase the demand of internet consumers for IP traffic.
These access applications led to the use of fixed wireless network antennas, key security, mobile network base stations, and monitoring & measuring structures, which then require higher information and data throughput. Consequently, the increase of the transport capacity of access networks becomes crucial for internet service providers. The transmission wires are exposed to external conditions, and many factors can lead to miscalibration. So, it is important to regularly evaluate the transmission quality, including the evaluation of power within the cables through optical power meters.
Opportunity
- Rising Power Grid Problems
A power grid, also referred to as an electrical grid, is an interconnected network structure for delivering electricity and power from producers to consumers for daily usage. It consists of three stages: generation, transmission, and distribution. Power plants convert mechanical energy into electrical energy by the use of a generator. Electrical transmission is carried out with the use of power lines. The distribution process connects substations from large industrial buildings to small homes to provide electricity for them.
There are lots of factors that contribute to the increasing power grid problems worldwide, which creates the need for regular maintenance and monitoring and to keep backup units in prime condition with the use of power meters. Thus, rising power grid problems are expected to provide an opportunity for market growth.
Restraint/Challenge
- Lack of Technical Knowledge
Increasing technological advances, new innovations, and digitization of business processes are making it difficult for workers, employees, and staff to match their skill sets with the needs of growing and technologically updated operations.
This creates a skill gap between the staff and the business. There is a shortage of skilled technical expertise with relevant qualifications and knowledge as technology upgrades day by day.
As computers get upgraded with smarter and innovative solutions, they become more capable of performing tasks that were earlier performed by humans, so the employees and staff will need to develop and upgrade the skill set that will provide them the advantage over computer machines such as critical thinking, innovations, and creativity.
The optical power meters fall under semiconductors and require substantial technical knowledge regarding units, conversions, and others, which makes it difficult for regular staff to operate power meters.
