Global Market Report on Radio Frequency (RF) Tester, 2026–2032
2026年 2月 12日(木曜日) 16:30
Definition of Radio Frequency (RF) Tester
RF is short for radio frequency. RF is any frequency within the electromagnetic spectrum associated with radio wave propagation. When an RF current is supplied to an antenna, an electromagnetic field is created that then is able to propagate through space. Many wireless technologies are based on RF field propagation. These frequencies make up part of the electromagnetic radiation spectrum.
RF tester is a precision equipment used for measurement and testing, usually composed of a transmitting device and a receiving device (usually a coaxial system). The working mode of the circuit or mechanical structure is controlled by sending signals, and its working state can be detected, adjusted and controlled by receiving signals. RF testers are widely used in the fields of information science and system science. For example, RF testers for microwave components support performance testing of RF devices below 67GHz, including the ability to analyze the power and phase parameters of fundamental and harmonic components, and can also provide load pulling and nonlinear X-parameter test modeling capabilities, providing strong support for the design of high-efficiency and high-linearity power amplifiers.
Key Drivers of the Market
1、Global Deployment of 5G/6G Communication Infrastructure: In base station construction and terminal equipment development, the demand for measuring instruments capable of handling wider bandwidths and higher frequencies is rapidly increasing worldwide.
2、Proliferation of Millimeter-Wave Radar for Autonomous Driving: Evaluating the performance of automotive radars, such as those using the 79GHz band, requires advanced measurement technology. Adoption of this product is progressing across a wide range of processes, from R&D sites to mass production lines.
3、Demand for Radio Law-Related Certification Procedures: Conformity assessment testing to obtain the "Technical Conformity Mark" (Giteki mark) represents a continuous, unique demand in the Japanese domestic market. Stable orders from testing laboratories and manufacturers are expected.
According to the latest report titled “Global Market Share and Ranking of Leading Companies in Radio Frequency (RF) Tester (2026)” released by the YHResearch research team, the global Radio Frequency (RF) Tester furnace market is projected to grow from USD 763 million in 2025 to USD 999 million by 2031, with a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 4.6% during 2025–2031.
The report provides a comprehensive analysis of the current status and future trends of the global Radio Frequency (RF) Tester market, helping stakeholders understand market size by product type, application, company, region, and country.
Future Development Potential
1、Radio wave measuring instruments are expected to capture new markets accompanying the expansion of Non-Terrestrial Networks (NTN). The development of wireless communication systems for entirely new propagation environments, such as HAPS and stratospheric platforms, is becoming more active, creating specialized measurement needs.
2、Radio wave measuring instruments hold the potential to increase added value through the fusion of quantum technology and measurement instruments. Controlling quantum computers and evaluating quantum sensors require the detection of extremely weak signals, leading to expectations for innovative measuring instruments that are not mere extensions of existing technologies.
3、Radio wave measuring instruments have the potential to open new markets through collaboration with the semiconductor manufacturing equipment industry. Leveraging Japan's strengths in production technology, differentiation is possible in niche fields such as high-speed measurement solutions for online wafer testing.
Key Challenges Hindering Market Growth
1、Shortage of Engineers and Interruption of Measurement Expertise Succession: Beyond the increasing sophistication of the instruments themselves, the development of personnel capable of understanding correct measurement methods and performing accurate analysis is lagging. Consequently, there are cases where the benefits of introduction are not being maximized.
2、Export Controls Related to Economic Security: Advanced measurement technologies are subject to stricter trade controls among major nations due to the risk of military diversion, causing distortions in the global supply chain.
3、Transition Costs to Software-Defined Measuring Instruments: Shifting from competition based on hardware performance to a solution-proposal business model requires human resource development and organizational restructuring. Companies that lag in this transition risk losing competitiveness.
