Communication Air Traffic Control Equipment Market Scope and Segmentation

Market Definition

Ground-based air traffic controllers use air traffic control equipment to improve operational efficiency and safety. The primary function of this equipment is to maintain the flow of air traffic, organise take-off and landing operations, prevent collisions, and assist pilots where possible. ATC also provides advisory services for non-controlled airspace.

Global Communication Air Traffic Control Equipment Market Dynamics

Drivers

• High investments in the aviation industry

Growing investments in the aviation industry have generated significant revenue for the global market. Furthermore, advancements in data processing and communication technologies have piqued the interest of global communication air traffic control equipment vendors. The need for safe landings and take-offs has prompted aviation industry decision-makers to push ATC units to continually improve. Furthermore, the presence of multiple aircrafts across the aerial trajectory necessitates the use of cutting-edge air traffic control and management equipment. In this scenario, it is reasonable to anticipate that the global communication air traffic control equipment market will expand at a rapid pace in the years ahead.

• Wide range of products

Air traffic control equipment corresponds to a wide range of products, which is an important consideration in terms of market growth. Several authorities have stated that broadcast equipment, law enforcement supplies, and airport surveillance systems should be used in the aviation industry. Furthermore, proper worker training is critical for air traffic control authorities. As a result, the total volume of revenues in the global communication air traffic control equipment market is expected to skyrocket. The collaboration of ground systems with air traffic control equipment is critical to maintaining fleet resilience. Military aircraft must fly at different altitudes than commercial and private aircraft. This factor, combined with the requirement to manage the times of aerial trajectories has aided the market growth.

Opportunities

• Introduction of unmanned traffic management

Rising demand for air traffic control optimization and the introduction of an unmanned traffic management framework to manage unmanned aircraft vehicles will all contribute to the growth of the communication air traffic control equipment market over the forecasted timeframe.

Restraints

• High cost and cyber threats

Increasing costs associated with air traffic control equipment and a significant increase in cyber threats will likely act as market restraints for the growth of communication air traffic control equipment. Lack of skilled labour and technical issues will be the most significant and immediate challenge to market growth.

COVID-19 Impact on Communication Air Traffic Control Equipment Market

Many prominent countries saw a significant decrease in air passenger volume during COVID-19. The number of passengers on international routes decreased as regional governments maintained entry restrictions in response to virus concerns. For instance, in 2021, South Korea's air passenger volume fell 7.7% from the previous year. The aviation industry in Japan was also affected significantly; Narita International Airport in Tokyo saw 5.2 million passengers in 2021, 50% fewer than in 2020. Nonetheless, most countries' international flight restrictions have been lifted, and air traffic is gradually increasing, which will likely increase the demand for air traffic management equipment over the forecast year.

Recent Developments

• In March 2022 Through the Direction Générale de l'Armement, the French Ministry of Defense chose Indra's air traffic management and radar system for three airbases. (DGA). The installation of the systems will improve the safety and efficiency of air operations from the bases.
• In February 2021, Frequentis AG, an international communication and information solutions supplier for mission-critical applications, announced the acquisition of L3harris Technologies' ATM voice communications and arrival management product business for USD 20.1 million.
• In January 2020 Raytheon Technologies Corporation partnered with the Federal Aviation Administration, the United States' civil aviation regulatory body, to advance the air traffic terminal automation system, improve usability, and reduce operational costs for the standard terminal automation replacement (STAR) system.
