The research study involved 4 major activities in estimating the size of the OTA testing market. Exhaustive secondary research has been done to collect important information about the market and peer markets. The validation of these findings, assumptions, and sizing with the help of primary research with industry experts across the value chain has been the next step. Both top-down and bottom-up approaches have been used to estimate the market size. Post which the market breakdown and data triangulation have been adopted to estimate the market sizes of segments and sub-segments.
Secondary Research
In the secondary research process, various secondary sources have been referred to for identifying and collecting information required for this study. The secondary sources include annual reports, press releases, investor presentations of companies, white papers, and articles from recognized authors. Secondary research has been mainly done to obtain key information about the market’s value chain, the pool of key market players, market segmentation according to industry trends, regional outlook, and developments from both market and technology perspectives.
In the OTA testing market report, the global market size has been estimated using both the top-down and bottom-up approaches, along with several other dependent submarkets. The major players in the market were identified using extensive secondary research, and their presence in the market was determined using secondary and primary research. All the percentage shares splits, and breakdowns have been determined using secondary sources and verified through primary sources.
Primary Research
Extensive primary research has been conducted after understanding the OTA testing market scenario through secondary research. Several primary interviews have been conducted with key opinion leaders from both demand- and supply-side vendors across 4 major regions— North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, and the Rest of the World. Approximately 25% of the primary interviews have been conducted with the demand-side vendors and 75% with the supply-side vendors. Primary data has been collected mainly through telephonic interviews, which consist of 80% of the total primary interviews; questionnaires and emails have also been used to collect the data.
After successful interaction with industry experts, brief sessions were conducted with highly experienced independent consultants to reinforce the findings of our primary research. This, along with the in-house subject matter experts’ opinions, has led us to the findings as described in the report.

Market Definition
OTA testing is basically a methodology that considers the performance of a wireless device about the performance of its antenna transmitting and receiving signals in the air. The main parameters for this test include Total Isotropic Sensitivity and Total Radiated Power. The TIS refers to the total sensitivity of an antenna to receive signals from every direction so that it can ensure that communication is okay in different scenarios, and it is tested inside anechoic chambers under different environmental conditions. Total Radiated Power-TRP measures antenna performance with regard to sending out signals, ensuring that the antenna does not exceed the maximum radiated power limits and works well in real-life environments.
The segments of the OTA Testing market based on offerings include test chambers (anechoic chambers), antenna testing solutions, and software, along with comprehensive testing and certification services. The technology segment includes cellular networks, inclusive of 5G, LTE, UMTS, GSM, CDMA, WiFi, and Bluetooth. The end-user segment is quite diversified and includes applications such as consumer smartphones, laptops, tablets, wearables, others, automotive & transportation systems, industrial applications, smart cities infrastructure, and emerging use cases. Each of these segments requires precise OTA testing against performance standards and regulations.
