Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/rqk5nd/global_rf_power) has announced the addition of the "Global RF Power Amplifier Market for Tablets 2014-2018" report to their offering. The Global RF Power Amplifier market for Tablets will grow at a CAGR of 15.93 percent over the period 2013-2018. RF power amplifier is a semiconductor device which converts electrical signal into radio signal. They employ transistors to consume power in either output signal mode or standby mode. RF power amplifiers are used in wireless communication devices such as cell phones, tablets, and radio sets, among others. RF power amplifiers are technologically advanced and compatible with 3G and 4G technologies. Depending on the application requirements, RF power amplifiers are designed and developed to work on various frequency bands. They are extremely compact in size and can fit easily in tablets and other wireless communication devices. Some of the other wireless communication devices that use RF devices are smartphones, notebooks, e-reader, and GPS devices. One major trend in this market is increase in technological convergence. Tablet original equipment manufacturers are constantly adding new features to their products, resulting in the launch of innovative products in the market, which has led to a high level of functional integration in tablets, enabling consumers to perform multiple functions on a single platform. According to the report, one major factor driving market growth is the increased adoption of tablets worldwide. The rise in the standard of living, increase in the per capita income and disposable income, popularity of advanced consumer electronics, continual decline in the average selling price of tablets, and penetration of high-speed internet are some of the factors resulting in the higher adoption of tablets worldwide. Further, the report states that one of the key challenges in this market is the emergence of phablets. Phablets have emerged as one of the potential substitutes for tablets because they have similar computational capabilities and large screen sizes. They are also easier to handle and have additional features when compared to tablets.
