The Internet of Things is an emerging theme in the technical sessionsat the IEEE MTT-S 2014 International Microwave Symposium (IMS), reflecting the critical part the microwave and RF industry plays in developing technologies that enable sophisticated peer-to-peer, machine-to-machine and people-to-machine scenarios.

New research conducted by IDTechEx, and published in the report "RFID Forecasts, Players and Opportunities 2014-2024," finds that the RFID market - including tags, readers, software and services, for passive and active RFID - will grow from $7.88 billion in 2013 to $9.2 billion in 2014. Most growth is due to active RFID/RTLS systems, interrogators, and then tags, in terms of total money spent.
