Global Body Worn Antenna Market by Type (Monopole, Dipole Antennas, Others), End-User (Military, Law enforcement, Security, Others), Frequency Band (HF, VHF, UHF), Application (Surveillance, Communication, Satcom, Others), & Region—Forecast till 2023Market ScenarioBody worn antennas are worn on the body and connected to a radio or transceiver device, where the antenna is specifically designed and tuned for optimum performance on the body during warfare.
The rapid growth in wearable sensors and wireless communications has facilitated the development of a new generation of wireless sensor networks, specifically wireless body antennas.
In recent years, new developments have been made in body worn antenna to reduce the size of antennas, increasing their flexibility and providing support for wider frequency bands.
Recently, in 2017, Harris Corporation developed covert body-worn antennas.
They provide a higher degree of safety than conventional tactical and radio antennas.
The growth of this segment can be attributed to the increasing adoption of modern warfare techniques in emerging nations in Asia-Pacific and the Middle East.The major driver for the body worn antenna market is the increasing usage of radar and rise in demand for ground defense systems.
