The DAB transmitter market is projected to reach US$ 146.02   million by 2028 from US$ 95.88 million in 2021; it is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 6.19% from 2021 to 2028.

According to the Rural Health Information Hub, the US has more than 46 million people with age 65 and above, and the number is anticipated to grow to ~90 million by 2050. Industry experts indicate that older people value listening to music as radio systems are familiar to them and fit into their daily lives. This has encouraged the audio broadcasting DAB Transmitter market players to incorporate newer digital listening technologies into their offerings. According to analyses by industry experts, elderly people in many Asia Pacific countries, such as Australia and India, admitted that listening to radio benefits their well-being as the device has a relaxing effect on them and stabilizes their mood. India is on its way to becoming the world's largest digital radio market. Low maintenance costs and enhanced audio quality are further enhancing the proliferation of digital radio systems among elderlies, which is boosting the demand for DAB transmitters. Further, digital radio systems are already a part of routine in the majority of European countries, while the remaining countries looking forward to migrating from analog to digital systems for short and medium wave broadcasting. On average, rural areas have greater geriatric population than urban areas in the world. Growth in media consumption in digital formats, increase in the availability of devices capable of supporting digital media, and continuous rise in internet access and speed would propel the adoption of digital radio systems in the coming years, thus augmenting the DAB transmitter market growth.  

Digital radio technology is revolutionizing the communications industry with its benefits over analogue radio technology. The DAB technology offers an increased coverage of up to 20% compared to analogue radios by filtering out the unwanted background noise. Digital radios also offer encryption as standard. The higher efficiency of DAB transmitters than analogue FM radio contributes to its ability of supporting more radio services on the same bandwidth. DAB is stronger with regard to noise and multipath fading for mobile listening, which is propelling the market growth. Increasing demands for a robust equipment is encouraging the DAB transmitter manufacturers to invest their efforts in designing and developing superior digital radios, with excellent quality and reliability. They are providing a wide range of handheld, two-way radio systems that can be embedded in vehicles and offices, and in transmitter products. Digital radio systems are feature GPS tracking and caller ID capabilities, and higher IP ratings in hostile environmental conditions. They can operate in analogue mode, which makes it easier for them to migrate from analogue to digital. Orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM), a digital multi-carrier modulation feature of DAB transmitters, allows the use of single-frequency networks (SFN) to provide coverage over a large area.

Impact of COVID-19 Pandemic on DAB Transmitter Market

The COVID-19 pandemic has severely affected the American countries, especially the US. As the US is home to many manufacturing and technological organizations, the COVID-19 pandemic and the restrictions imposed to control its spread have had a negative impact. The pandemic has adversely affected the overall electronics market by delaying production, as most of the manufacturing plants have been shut down. This has led to the delays in designing and launch of new products.

The electronics and semiconductors industry is expected to lose earnings of billions of dollars due to a shortage of raw materials. Industry experts expect that the shortage of semiconductor chips will lead to a decline of US$ 60.6 billion in revenue from the global automotive industry. Key players in the US such as General Motors reported that the chip shortage will reduce its earnings by US$ 1.5 billion to US$ 2 billion in 2021. Similarly, Ford Motor stated that the COVID-19 crisis could lower its earnings by US$ 1 billion to US$ 2.5 billion in 2021. Honda Motor and Nissan Motor reported fewer car sales due to the semiconductor chip shortage.

The launch of music and podcast streaming apps such as Spotify, YouTube Music, Apple Music, Soundcloud, and Amazon Music have magnified the demand for digital audio content. Music streaming accounts for ~80% of all music consumption in the US. According to Digilant, a marketing technology company, in 2014, ~7.9 million people in the US paid for a music streaming service, and the number was projected to reach ~72 million by the end of 2020. Moreover, ~116 million people use the ad-supported versions of these platforms, which is bolstering the digital music and podcast streaming industry. Digital audio advertising enables advertisers to access various digital audio advertising channels and reach active listeners across the world. Companies can gain national advertising coverage via news and talk radio, and can take advantage of their native advertising format throughout podcasts. Many digital audio advertising companies are strategically targeting potential audience on the bases of contextual, behavioral, device-type, geographic, and genre relevance for broadcasting radio ads.

Type-Based Market Insights

On the basis of type, the DAB Transmitter Market is segmented as Low Power DAB Transmitters, Medium Power DAB Transmitters, and High Power DAB Transmitters. Low power DAB transmitters are used for broadcasting at a low electric power to a smaller service area. It is distinguished from "micropower broadcasting" and broadcast translators. Low power DAB in modern transmission systems includes time-interleaving which reduces noise and multipath fading due to its wide bandwidth, and a relatively low signal-to-noise requirement. Digital Radio Mondiale and the ‘HD Radio’ system are also available for local broadcasting, however, they are narrowband systems and require a separate transmission infrastructure for each service. There is a growing inclination towards open standards by the manufacturers seeking to enter new markets. Open source code enables DAB receivers to be implemented wholly in software. ARM processor powered devices such as Raspberry Pi educational computer, and a Google Nexus tablet are increasingly using DAB transmitters owing to the benefits of power efficiency.

Frequently Asked Questions


What are key driving factors behind DAB Transmitter market growth?

Rapid advancements in digital audio technology is allowing music and speech to be accessible to most people across the globe through the digital media. Growth in digital technology is propelling the demands for digital audio broadcasting (DAB), also known as digital radio and high-definition radio. DAB is a type of audio broadcasting in which analog signal is converted into a digital signal and transmitted on the AM (amplitude modulation) or FM (frequency modulation) frequency range. Digital audio broadcast signals are transmitted in-band, on-channel (IBOC) where different stations can be carried within the same frequency spectrum. The signal is compressed at the transmitting side and modulated using coded orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (COFDM). Advantages offered by DAB such as compact disc (CD) quality audio on the FM broadcast band and FM-quality audio on the AM broadcast band, improved sound quality, reduced fading and multipath effects, and immunity to noise and interference, is significantly bolstering the growth of digital audio technology, thereby bolstering the growth of the DAB transmitters market.
