Multi-mode Receiver Market Growth & Trends

The global multi-mode receiver market size is expected to reach USD 1.94 billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of 4.2% from 2025 to 2030, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. Multi-mode receiver (MMR) plays a crucial role in augmenting navigation and landing capabilities of an aircraft. As a result, the number of aircraft deliveries emerges as a crucial factor for the MMR market. Although worldwide aircraft shipments have dropped from 2,331 in 2015 to 2,262 in 2016 as stated by the General Aviation Manufacturers Association (GAMA), air passenger traffic has increased significantly over the past 10 years, particularly in developing economies such as India and China. This is expected to propel market growth.

An MMR integrates multiple functionalities into a compact unit, thereby reducing the weight and space factor of an aircraft. It also assists the pilot in positioning, navigating, and landing the aircraft, even in unfavorable conditions. These factors are likely to work in favor of the MMR market.

Another important factor contributing to market growth is initiatives undertaken by airlines across the world to modernize their fleets. Stringent mandates have been laid down for the aviation sector worldwide. At the same time, new technologies such as Automatic Dependent Surveillance-Broadcast (ADS-B) Out are also emerging. While airlines are undertaking various aircraft modernization programs and upgrading their fleets, they also have to make sure their aircraft support the latest technologies and evolving Required Navigation Performance (RNP) navigation approaches. As a result, airlines are spending aggressively on advanced navigation systems. However, safeguarding aircraft avionics systems/technologies from cyber-attacks is one of the crucial challenges faced by the aviation industry.

At present, a handful of market players holding expertise in manufacturing MMR systems are dominating the market. The strong geographical presence of these incumbents, coupled with existing long-term supply contracts, will ensure steady growth of the MMR market over the forecast period. Market players are also adhering to strategies aimed at new product development and expansion in order to strengthen their foothold in the market. For instance, in 2017, Honeywell International Inc. developed a new integrated MMR that complies with GLS CAT-III navigation standards.

Multi-mode Receiver Market Report Highlights
