Accelerating bandwidth requirements for upgrading existing networks is notably driving market growth. The volume of data that is communicated within an organization has increased substantially in recent years. An increase in the use of instant messaging, video conferencing, and voice-over-Internet Protocol (VoIP) among businesses has increased the volume of packet data. This massive increase in network traffic has resulted in a reduction in network efficiency and certainty. Hence, organizations are investing heavily in wireless networks to manage this network traffic more efficiently
Moreover, the use of wireless technology has ensured that businesses can deploy the cloud-based platform to store such a large chunk of data and retrieve it anytime. This allows businesses to create a backup of their assets, secure critical information, and reduce operational risk. Therefore, accelerating bandwidth requirements for upgrading existing networks will drive the growth of the global industrial wireless market in process industries during the forecast period.
The growing use of M2M services across industries is an emerging trend shaping the market growth. Wireless technologies have evolved to simplify business operations across process industries. Advances in wireless solutions have empowered end-users to deploy M2M services for managing several facets of a business. Remote monitoring of M2M solutions has gained traction with the evolution of wireless management systems used in end-user industries, including wireless LANs, sensors, and other wearable devices. These advanced devices and technologies help to generate substantial information in critical areas and ensure seamless integration of multi-disciplinary industrial facilities and shop floors.
However, improvements in wireless technology have transcended science, engineering, and manufacturing to transmit long-range data related to industrial processes that operate in hostile and dangerous environments. Therefore, the growing use of M2M services across industries will drive the growth of the market during the forecast period.
Interoperability concerns with wireless technologies in process automation is a significant challenge hindering the market growth. Another major roadblock to the wide-scale adoption of wireless technologies in process automation is the interoperability concern faced by end-users. Most industrial users prefer an infrastructure solution that can connect and manage multiple systems and devices while ensuring the integrity of the overall process and interoperability while switching networks.
For instance, a ZigBee device can only connect to a ZigBee hub. Also, the end-user will be required to make separate networks based on ZigBee, Wi-Fi, or any other technology. All these factors have restricted the growth rate of the industrial wireless market in process industries despite its huge potential. These factors will hinder the growth of the industrial wireless market in process industries during the forecast period.
The market share growth by the WLAN segment will be significant during the forecast period. Process industries contain several devices, systems, and sub-processes that need to be interconnected to relay operational data on the shop floor. The deployment of WLAN helps to form a mesh of effective communication networks that assists operators and supervisors in keeping tabs on industrial processes.

The WLAN segment was the largest and was valued at USD 747.26 million in 2018. The deployment of WLAN will be high among process industries as it is a relatively low-priced network compared to other wireless technologies with wide network coverage. In the base year, WLAN contributed the majority of the revenues to the overall industrial wireless market in process industries and will continue to be the majority shareholder shortly. New WLAN installations replacing wired communication in the process industries are anticipated to increase during the forecast period and hence will drive the growth of the WLAN segment of the industrial wireless market in process industries during the forecast period.
The oil and gas industry demands the design and execution of large production units and processing plants that need to be set up in harsh environmental conditions. Advanced technology in the form of new-generation networks involves the deployment of 5G networks for enhanced voice and data transfer between off-site and on-site personnel. Machine-to-machine interactions based on wireless communication platforms will assist the industry in streamlining its operations and attaining higher productivity. Trends in industrial wireless solutions for OGPI: Use of advanced wireless protocols to reduce costs, improve decision-making, and enhance workforce productivity. Despite a decline in the oil and gas sector, business owners will continue to invest in wireless and digital technologies during the next 2-3 years. Mobility solutions, the Internet of Things, and analytics hold the key to wireless technology solutions. Cloud computing will be a focus area for adding value to the overall business operations. These factors will drive the growth of the OGPI segment of the global industrial wireless market in process industries during the forecast period.
