The global BLE beacon market was valued at $2 billion in 2019, and is projected to reach $69.2 billion by 2030, growing at a CAGR of 36.9% from 2022 to 2030
Bluetooth low energy is referred to as BLE. It is a power-saving variation of Bluetooth that was first released in 2010 by Bluetooth SIG. Beacons depend on BLE's low energy requirements as it enables them to operate for years on tiny coin-cell batteries. In addition, it uses a lot less energy than the outdated, cumbersome Bluetooth. BLE is a key factor on the Internet of Things, enabling technology to function for longer with fewer pieces.
BLE uses a different set of channels but the same frequency range as Bluetooth Classic (2.400-2.4835 GHz ISM band). It has three major ad channels, which speeds up device connections and reduces the amount of time to scan a device. To address concerns related to narrowband interference, BLE implements direct sequence spread spectrum or frequency hopping using digital modulation techniques. A Bluetooth beacon's theoretical maximum radius is less than 100 meters. Furthermore, latency from a disconnected state can be up to 6 meters. The beacon's real range and reaction time are determined by the operation for which it was intended.
The outbreak of COVID-19 has significantly impacted the growth of the global BLE beacon market solutions such as ibeacon devices and ibeacon proximity devices in 2021, owing to a significant impact on prime players operating in the supply chain. With the use of BLE beacon technology, numerous organizations are developing different applications to stop the spread of false information regarding the number of fatalities, available diagnoses & treatments, and immunization.
For instance, Google and Facebook teamed up to support the National Health Service (NHS) in the fight against false coronavirus news. In addition, it is expected that the BLE Beacon market will dominate the market in 2021, owing to the increase in implementation of this technology by governments around the world to conduct various efforts to prevent close contact. For instance, the government of India has installed a few gadgets at the Bangalore Airport to eliminate passenger interaction and reduce the spread of coronavirus. It has been observed that using infrared cards allows a user to make purchases without ever touching a swiping machine. For instance, PayPal has established a beacon protocol to prevent the use of cash or swipe cards. Therefore, during the forecast period, it is expected to drive the BLE beacon market opportunity, owing to the demand for location-based marketing solutions and the growing adoption of mobile devices.
