Chipless RFID Market Analysis
The Chipless RFID Market was valued at USD 0.89 billion in 2020 and is expected to reach USD 3.94 billion by 2026 and work at a CAGR of 28% over the forecast period 2021-2026. Technological advancements have led to new approaches within RFID technology, like microprocessors with 5.8 GHz tags for smart cards and chipless IDs that enable contactless communication even in the absence of a silicon chip.
- The chipless RFID technology has emerged as a lowcost alternative for chipped RFID system and has the potential to penetrate mass markets for lowcost item tagging, considering the high cost of silicon chip RFID transponders compared to optical barcodes. Thus, problems of achieving low-cost chipped RFID are presented with the proposed solution of chipless RFID for lowering the price of the RFID tag.
- For instance, in August 2018, the UC San Diego Jacobs School of Engineering and the Center for Wireless Communications at UC San Diego announced their chipless ID technology that can reflect WiFi signals. The chipless RFID technology released by them is in the form of metal tags made from copper foil printed on thin, flexible substrates, like paper.
- The Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) estimated that by 2020, more than 50 billion objects will be networked, of which many will use chipless RFID. With IoT being implemented in the supply chain across the pharmaceutical, manufacturing and other logistics industries, such statistics substantiate the market potential over the forecast period.
