RF MEMS devices have a huge number of potential applications including wireless communications, military, space and instrumentation.

"The interest in MEMS technology for RF and wireless applications can be attributed to its flexibility, which can be exploited to overcome the limitations exhibited by integrated RF devices and enable circuits with new levels of performance not achievable otherwise", says Technical Insights Research Analyst Rajesh Kannan.

"Thus, the ultimate goal in applying RF MEMS is to propagate the device-level benefits all the way up to the system level".
