A New Generation of Intelligent Electronic Devices Market

Most of the nations worldwide are trying to raise their electricity production in order to complement the increasing industrialization and urbanization. This factor has significantly contributed to the rise of substation installation in order to deliver electricity to various remote parts of a nation. A substation is used to step up current and voltage or vice versa for transmitting electricity to long distances.


Thus, a substation typically consists of equipment such as circuit breaker, transformer, capacitors and voltage regulators which perform transmission, distribution and protection of equipment’s from both the ends. This makes substation an important part of power system which needs constant monitoring and maintenance for smooth operation. Intelligent electronic device helps to monitor, control and protect the substation equipment’s from unpredicted faults resulting in disruption of power supply.

Intelligent electronic devices consist of a group of microprocessor controlled components such as switching, control and communication units. Switching units comprises devices such as protective relay, electrically operated on-load tap controller and electrical isolator which operate in substation to mechanically isolate the system in case of possible fault. Some switching units also continuously monitor and collect data which is fed to control units through communication devices. Communication devices comprises Ethernet cables, wireless transmission and power line communication carrier (PLCC). Today, most of the intelligent electronic devices manufacturers provide communication through Ethernet cables and wireless communication.

Control units consists of a system which helps to monitor and control the remote terminal unit (RTU) or switching units in real-time. Further, it also collects historical data from switching units thereby providing detailed analysis to the operator. Intelligent electronic devices also consist of monitoring systems, supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA), human machine interface (HMI) and digital meters which help to provide additional information of overall health of substation systems.

Recordable Optical Disc Market Is Set For A Rapid Growth By 2024

Recordable optical discs are commonly used for data storage and retrieval purposes. These discs came up with a breakthrough technology to store data on magnetic discs and provided efficient results in comparison to the traditional magnetic tape and floppy disks. Recordable optical discs are laser based optical recording discs. The laser light is used to change the reflectivity of the optical disc and eliminate data duplicity.

Recordable optical disc market is segmented on the basis of recording modes, disc type, capacity and end-users. The recording modes of optical discs is further classified as Disc At Once (DAO), Track At Once (TAO), Session At Once (SAO) and packet writing. DAO recording technology is suitable for writing disc at one go and is usually preferred for duplication of optical disc. This technology is basically used in DVDs. TAO recording mode is used for writing the individual tracks on the disc and mostly preferred in writing data and audio into CDs/DVDs at the same time.

SAO allows multiple sessions to finalize the recorded data on the disc. SAO mode is preferred for optical disc used in computer drives. SAO recording mode is avoided for the disc which contains audio data. Packet writing allows recordable optical discs to be used in similar fashion to the floppy disk and is preferable for both recordable and re-recordable discs.

Recordable Optical Disc Market: Segmentation

On the basis of disc type, the market is segmented as CDs, DVDs and Blue-ray discs. Also, on the basis of capacity, recordable optical disc market is further segmented into three categories, viz. less than 5 GB storage, between 5 GB & 10 GB and higher than 10 GB. The recordable optical disc market is segmented on the basis of end-users as media and entertainment industries, education institutes, healthcare centers and others (manufacturing industries and general purposes).


Recordable Optical Disc Market: Drivers, Restraints, and Trends
The latest developments in the optical disc and increasing demand for archived solutions is expected to the drive the recordable optical disc market. The recently developed UV optical disc provides data storage over 100 GB and is expected to lead in its adoption for commercial data storage purposes. Similarly, media and entertainment industries are largely dependent on recordable optical discs to commercialize and archive their audio/video data. Further, evolution of holographic data storage technologies in recordable optical disc that stores data in a three-dimensional code and provides high-rate of security may lead to its adoption in near future.
