The emergence of handheld analyzers came from the need to make testing processes more efficient, cost effective and safe in various industries. For example, safety and security; the traditional testing process was costly and time consuming, with hazardous chemicals delivered to a laboratory for analysis and results coming days or weeks after. With handhelds, a more complete picture of a sample is formed in real time since data can be obtained in the field and answers are delivered immediately.

The test equipment industry is a fast moving sector as vendors strive to supply test solutions for everchanging technical requirements. One notable trend is the growth in demand for handheld devices. Traditional stand-alone test equipment often does not work well in outdoor, hard-to-reach, or moving environments. These settings demand a small, lightweight, and portable test system.
Nearly all major brands have introduced new models of handheld test equipment and analyzers.
The radio communications market is one driving factor behind the explosion in the handheld equipment demand. As cellular communications improves and expands and protocols change and grow, field technicians are more in demand and so are the instruments that best suit their work environments.
Another new technology driving demand for portability is the recent proliferation of fiber optic network installations.
Handheld, portable RF/microwave test equipment has come a long way in the last decade, with the majority of benchtop measurement functions (such as signal generation and analysis) now available from portable packages. These miniature measurement powerhouses can be used manually, and many also include advanced test software programs and the latest computer interfaces for programmable and automatic testing at a remote site.
The deeper integration of RF, microwave and highspeed digital technologies in a single device that must provide outstanding battery life. Thus, those instrument manufacturers that offer advanced handhelds are looking for software and hardware tools that will help them overcome the same issues their customers face.
In history, two major events prompted the use of handheld analyzers: the fall of the telecom industry and the rise of Silicon Valley. Engineers working in telecom brought their expertise in optical technology to new industries. And the growing number of technology startups in Silicon Valley led to the miniaturization of software-based tools and consumer electronics. These facts helped bring handheld technology to more people, places and industries.
RF handheld instruments are increasingly used in installation and maintenance applications in the fields of air interfaces, access networks, and network performance. The explosive growth in next-generation communication systems (e.g., 4G/5G) will bolster the demand for the field test equipment.
The inherent advantages of battery-operated handheld and portable instruments used in I&M applications are size, weight, and mobility. The battery of the portable test equipment plays a major role in determining equipment usage capacity, mobility, and multiple functionalities of the instrument. The emergence of flexible batteries and increased battery life is expected to further enhance the attractiveness of these devices. With the advancement in wireless network connectivity, battery-operated instruments can be operated remotely in harsh, remote environments through smartphones or tablets.
End users in verticals, such as communication, medical, aerospace & defense, automotive, and consumer electronics increasingly require handheld and portable instruments for I&M applications in their field of work. The increasing need for portability among end users of test equipment encourages companies to invest in R&D to increase the functionality of these instruments.
The recent trend among test vendors is to develop integrated test equipment that can handle the functionalities of several instruments in a single box. Using integrated test equipment with multiple functionalities will increase the customer product value and time saving for the technicians rather than carrying multiple portable instruments.
From the end-user perspective, one of the major selection criteria for portable test equipment is the operating features. In R&D applications, the test equipment will have a wide operating range and functionalities designed exclusively for experienced users, while in I&M applications the portable test equipment are handled by less skilled users, so the demand for a more user-friendly and rugged portable equipment has increased. Nowadays, some of these integrated test equipment are being used in R&D applications as a codicil to bench-top instruments.
The test equipment used in I&M applications are comparatively cost effective than the test equipment used in R&D and manufacturing applications. There is high price pressure in this market, as there are many market participants due to the low manufacturing cost of these products. In addition, the low-cost equipment provided by Chinese test vendors meet the quality level expected by the customers. This has challenged global vendors, from a competition standpoint, to reduce the price of their products to remain competitive.
With the ever increasing capabilities of handheld equipment, end users are certain to benefit. Indian customers will benefit in two ways. Smaller companies gain by getting access to higher performance equipment &#; in many cases, they can now get the performance of benchtop equipment but at the cost of handheld equipment. Customers involved in field maintenance will gain by being able to complete a wider range of tasks in the field.
The growth of the cellular industry and newer regulations on issues such as EMF measurements for cellular towers are also driving growth.
