Automatic Dependent Surveillance Broadcast Global Market Report 2024

The automatic dependent surveillance-broadcast market size has grown rapidly in recent years. It will grow from $0.66 billion in 2023 to $0.78 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 18.7%. The expansion witnessed in the historical period can be ascribed to several factors including regulatory mandates, heightened airspace capacity, government subsidies and incentives, enhanced data sharing practices, and collaborative industry partnerships.

The automatic dependent surveillance-broadcast market size is expected to see rapid growth in the next few years. It will grow to $1.57 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 19%. The anticipated growth in the upcoming forecast period is expected to stem from various factors, including the escalation of air traffic volume, the widespread adoption of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs), heightened interest in space-based ADS-B solutions, a growing emphasis on environmental sustainability measures, rising concerns surrounding cybersecurity, and ongoing modernization initiatives on a global scale. Notable trends projected for this period encompass the integration of ADS-B with unmanned traffic management systems, advancements in ADS-B technology, the emergence of autonomous aircraft, increased retrofit installations, and continued innovation in ADS-B solutions.

The rise in air traffic is expected to fuel the expansion of the automatic dependent surveillance-broadcast (ADS-B) market in the coming years. Air traffic encompasses the movement of aircraft within specific areas or along designated routes, and this sector is experiencing growth due to the development of new airports, the expansion of existing facilities, and advancements in air traffic management systems that enhance air travel capacity. ADS-B technology plays a critical role in air traffic management by providing real-time tracking and surveillance data for improved situational awareness and safety in aviation operations. For instance, data from the International Air Transport Association (IATA) in January 2024 revealed significant traffic increases for Middle Eastern and North American carriers in 2023, emphasizing the rising air traffic trends globally and the need for robust ADS-B solutions.

Key players in the automatic dependent surveillance-broadcast market are focusing on developing technologically advanced products to meet the evolving needs of their customers. One such advancement is the integrated flight deck system, which consolidates essential avionics functions into a single, integrated display unit within aircraft cockpits. For example, Garmin, a Europe-based provider of GPS technology, received approval from the European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) in May 2021 for its G5000H integrated flight deck system. This system includes ADS-B In and Out capabilities for the Bell 505 helicopter, enhancing pilot awareness and safety by leveraging advanced ADS-B technology. Garmin's commitment to delivering cutting-edge avionics solutions aligns with the industry's demand for enhanced aircraft tracking and surveillance capabilities.

In November 2021, Collins Aerospace, a US-based technology company, made a strategic acquisition by acquiring FlightAware, a US-based digital aviation company, to bolster its offerings in the Connected Aviation Solutions business unit. FlightAware operates a network of ADS-B and Mode S receivers, contributing valuable data analytics capabilities to Collins Aerospace's portfolio. This acquisition aims to improve operational efficiency and reliability for aviation customers, highlighting the growing importance of ADS-B technology in enhancing air traffic management and aviation safety.

Automatic dependent surveillance-broadcast (ADS-B) represents a pivotal aviation surveillance technology wherein aircraft autonomously transmit crucial data, encompassing identification, position, altitude, and supplementary information, through a dedicated data link derived from onboard navigation systems. This transmitted data is disseminated for utilization by other aircraft, vehicles, and ground facilities without necessitating external prompting.

The principal categories within the realm of automatic dependent surveillance-broadcast comprise retrofit and line fit solutions. The retrofit segment of ADS-B pertains to the installation of this technology in pre-existing aircraft subsequent to their manufacturing. Within this domain, various iterations such as ADS-B Out, ADS-B In, and ADS-B ground stations are available, catering to diverse platforms including fixed-wing and rotary-wing aircraft. These retrofit solutions are made accessible through aftermarket channels and original equipment manufacturers (OEMs), facilitating applications such as terminal maneuvering area surveillance, airborne surveillance, and automatic dependent surveillance.
