The FSO & VLC markets have a huge potential across the optical wireless communication applications, and are dominant technologies for communication. The factors driving the FSO market are last mile connectivity, license-free, and alternative solution to overburdened RF technology for outdoor networking. The growth of the VLC market is driven by factors such as faster and safer data transfer than other competing technologies, RF spectrum bandwidth crunch, no bandwidth limitation, less energy consumption, and greener, cleaner, and safer technology.
In 2015 the VLC market got commercialized for the unidirectional communication applications:
Mobile backhaul and enterprise connectivity applications were the early adopters of the FSO technology and are also driving the FSO market currently. As of 2015, the VLC market is commercialized only for the purpose of unidirectional communication, and is gaining attention mainly from applications such as smart stores, street lighting, and museums. However, by 2020, bidirectional communication is also expected to be commercialized, which would make consumer electronics the major application of VLC, primarily for indoor networking and positioning.
By 2020, the market share of the photodetector segment is expected to grow very rapidly:
At present, only one-way communication is possible with the help of VLC, which requires the installation of LED and installation of some applications on phones and tablets, and a cloud server to maintain the storage platform. However, with the advent of two-way communication by the end of 2020, the market share of the photodetector segment, which includes photodiodes and image sensors, is expected to grow very rapidly.
Europe accounted for the major share of ~32% of the overall FSO market in 2014. The APAC market is expected to grow at the highest CAGR of 55.2% in the FSO market between 2015 and 2020. The market in the Americas accounted for the largest share of around 42% of the VLC market in 2015. The Asia-Pacific market for VLC is expected to grow at the highest CAGR of 105.8% between 2015 and 2020.
Major players in the FSO market are LightPointe Communications, Inc. (U.S.), fSONA Networks Corp. (Canada), Trimble Hungary Kft. (Hungary), AOptix Technologies, Inc. (U.S.), and Plaintree Systems Inc. (Canada). The key players in the VLC market are Koninklijke Philips N.V. (Netherlands), General Electric Co. (U.S.), ByteLight, Inc.
