The emergence of portable ADS-B, establishment of norms for integrating ADS-B, and increase in investment towards the expansion of aircraft fleet are among the key trends driving the automatic dependent surveillance-broadcast market.

Automatic Dependent Surveillance-Broadcast Market Analysis

The increasing number of aircraft fleet orders and deliveries across the world, coupled with mandates for using ADS-B, is playing a positive role in boosting the adoption of ADS-B. Also, increasing investment to upgrade commercial airports with advanced facilities and technologies is anticipated to fuel the adoption of ADS-B. Additionally, projects approved by the aviation authorities of countries such as the US for using ADS-B in military applications are expected to provide ample growth opportunities to the manufacturers of ADS-B during the forecast period. Also, the emergence of portable ADS-B to save the cost of manufacturing & installing the standard ADS-B is expected to contribute the market growth.

Automatic Dependent Surveillance-Broadcast Market Overview

ADS-B is a surveillance technique in which no external stimulus is needed. This technique depends on airport vehicles and aircraft for broadcasting their position, identity, and other information obtained from onboard systems like GNSS. ADS-B exhibits features including high performance, environmental sustainability, global interoperability, and increased capacity & improved safety. Additionally, ADS-B surveillance infrastructure is less costly than primary radar technology, which makes it cost-efficient for surveillance purposes. A rise in investment toward the expansion of aircraft fleets across the globe is expected to drive the automatic dependent surveillance-broadcast market growth during the forecast period. In addition, Commercial aviation is foreseen to increase in the upcoming years due to the mounting number of air travellers and new aircraft procurement. In North America, Europe, & Asia Pacific region, air passenger traffic has been increasing with time, which is fueling the demand for commercial aircraft. In Asia Pacific, primarily in China and India, commercial aircraft for domestic travel has been proven to be cost-effective. This is expected to fuel the market growth in the coming years.

Automatic Dependent Surveillance-Broadcast Market Drivers and Opportunities

Increasing Investment in Commercial Airports

With the raising number of commercial airports worldwide, the adoption of ADS-B is also increasing. This technology is currently being executed in regions such as Europe, North America, and Asia. With the increasing infrastructure of commercial airports or renovation of existing airports, the number of ground equipment, such as ATC terminals, is also increasing, thus taking advantage of ADS-B for tracking aircraft. In countries such as China, Chongqing Jiangbei International Airport (CQIA) is among the 10th largest airports, which is undergoing a significant expansion plan. From investment, the airport is to receive international air hub status and will be the largest in western China by 2035. Another airport in China witnessing investment to develop an airport is Beijing Daxing International Airport.

SE Lithuanian Airports has signed an agreement worth US$ 81 million (€70 million) of loan with the Nordic Investment Bank to modernize Lithuania's three primary airports: Vilnius, Kaunas, and Palanga. Such projects related to the modernization of airports are projected to propel the adoption of advanced technologies, including ADS-B. The following data represents the investments in terms of constructing/upgrading/modernizing airports across regions such as North America to witness US$ 20 billion, APAC to see US$ 90.86 billion, SAM to experience US$ 1.12 billion, and MEA to US$ 42.92 billion for the development of their airports.

The mentioned investments to build new airports and modernize existing airports are anticipated to increase the deployment of advanced surveillance techniques to better track aircraft. Thus, they are positively contributing towards the deployment of ADS-B, which is driving the automatic dependent surveillance-broadcast market.

Deployment of ADS-B for Military Purpose

The scope of ADS-B is expanding to ensure the precise tracking of aircraft. With continuous technological advancements, the integration of ADS-B is increasing among military aircraft. As per the US Air Force, the Pentagon is anticipated to have 2,936 aircraft equipped with ADS-B Out guided by the FAA mandate. By 2025, the US DoD aims to have nearly 62% of their aircraft equipped with ADS-B (Out), including more than nearly 67% of helicopters, 35% of fighter aircrafts, and 100% of mobility, trainer aircraft, command & control/intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance (C2/ISR). Nearly 1,129 helicopters, 259 C2/ISR aircraft, 923 mobility aircraft, and 625 trainers are expected to be equipped with ADS-B as per the Air Force. In DoD, the aircraft that are projected to receive ADS-B Out include Boeing C-17 Globemasters, Lockheed Martin UH-60 Black Hawk helicopters, C-130, and C-5 transports. Such a massive deployment of ADS-B in military aviation is anticipated to influence the growth of the automatic dependent surveillance-broadcast market effectively.
