Market Definition

An optical power meter is a device that measures electricity and power in an optical signal. Optical power meters were used to test the average amount of power in fiber optic networks and systems. A power meter is a combination and integration of a calibrated sensor, display and measuring amplifier and display, which measures and monitors the range of wavelengths and power levels. The calibrated sensor is integrated with a photodiode which is used to measure the wavelengths and power levels in the system. The sensors consist of silicon, germanium or InGaAs based semiconductor. Different sensor types used in optical power meters have different characteristics. A measuring amplifier is used to verify accuracy and to deliver data and information. The display unit provides the monitored and measured optical power reading and set wavelength. An optical power meter also helps to determine the power loss incurred by the optical signal while passing through the optical media.

North America Optical Power Meter Market Dynamics

This section deals with understanding the market drivers, advantages, opportunities, restraints and challenges. All of this is discussed in detail as below:

Drivers

• INCREASING DEMAND FOR OPTICAL POWER METER

An optical power meter is a device that measures electricity and power in an optical signal. Optical power meters were used to test the average amount of power in fiber optic networks and systems. A power meter is a combination and integration of a calibrated sensor, display and measuring amplifier, which measures and monitors the range of wavelengths and power levels. An optical power meter also helps to determine the power loss incurred by the optical signal while passing through the optical media.

The North America optical power meter market is expected to witness significant growth in the coming years due to the increasing demand for optical power meters. Optical power meters 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.

Opportunities

• RISING POWER GRID PROBLEMS

A power grid is, also referred to as an electrical grid, is an interconnected network structure for delivering electricity and power from producers to consumers for daily usage. The power grid consists of three stages are 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.

Restraints/Challenges

• LACK OF TECHNICAL KNOWLEDGE

Increasing technological advances, innovations, and digitization of business processes make 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, it becomes more capable of performing tasks that were earlier performed by humans, so the employees and staff will need to develop and upgrade their 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 huge technical knowledge regarding units, conversions and others, which makes it difficult for normal staff to operate power meters.

Post COVID-19 Impact on North America Optical Power Meter Market

COVID-19 has had a significant impact on the North America economy, and the optical power meter market is no exception. With the pandemic causing disruptions in supply chains and production, the demand for optical power meters may have been affected.

However, the increasing use of optical power meters in the telecommunications industry, data centers, and other applications has kept the demand relatively stable. The need for reliable and high-speed communication networks has only increased during the pandemic due to the shift to remote work and online learning.

Additionally, with the increasing adoption of 5G technology and the expansion of fiber optic networks, the demand for optical power meters will likely continue to grow in the coming years.

Overall, while COVID-19 may have caused some disruptions in the optical power meter market, the increasing demand for high-speed and reliable communication networks is expected to drive growth in the long term
