Global UAV GNSS Antenna Market Research Report 2023-Competitive Analysis, Status and Outlook by Type, Downstream Industry, and Geography, Forecast to 2029

An unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) or uncrewed aerial vehicle, commonly known as a drone, is an aircraft without any human pilot, crew or passengers on board. UAV's structure is comprised of aluminum and titanium. As for its main function, most users apply drones to gather different types of data related to the ground, sea and air. They can find useful data without sending several teams to the target locations.

To collected massive and accurate data in a short time, antenna is the essential role of UAV. There are two kinds of antennas on the UAV. First, C-Band directional antenna, is the collecter of device. Directional antennas pull in signals better from one direction. It is commonly used to detect a weaker or more distant signal, such as payload delivery, traffic monitoring, moving objects in seemingly dangerous environment, and surveillance.

Second, GNSS antenna, is the Direction of UAV. It is used to determine the position of the vehicle. This report mainly studies the global UAV GNSS Antenna market. The GNSS antenna receives signals transmitted by satellites in GNSS constellations including GPS, Galileo, GLONASS, and BeiDou. These signals consist of data that is needed for UAVs and unmanned systems to decide position, velocity, and timing.

Market Overview:

The latest research study on the global UAV GNSS Antenna market finds that the global UAV GNSS Antenna market reached a value of USD 360.65 million in 2022. It’s expected that the market will achieve USD 703.62 million by 2028, exhibiting a CAGR of 11.78% during the forecast period.

UAV GNSS Antenna Market Drivers

High-tech war accelerates the release of UAV demand, technology + policy drives the rapid development of UAV industry, and the market prospect is broad. In 1960s, UAV officially entered the battlefield. As soon as it appeared, it relied on its high energy efficiency ratio as an important supplement to the battlefield. With the development of information technology, it gradually became the main battle weapon from battlefield assistance in information warfare, showing its power at both ends of attack and defense. In recent years, UAV has continuously improved its intelligence, reduced its cost, and blossomed in many fields, such as cluster operations and cooperative operations. The era of unmanned combat is coming soon, and the demand for UAV has accelerated.

Benefiting from the development of satellite navigation and communication, intelligent technology and high-end raw material technology, the performance of unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) has been continuously improved, and the equipment system has been continuously improved. With the development of national defense informatization and the promotion of military integration policy, the global UAV industry has developed at a high speed and has a broad market prospect.

The military drone market continues to expand, and the potential of civil industrial grade is huge. In the early days, UAVs were mainly used in the military field, such as target aircraft, reconnaissance, intelligence detection, bomb-carrying strike, etc. It is an efficient and low-cost way of fighting, and has made great achievements on the geopolitical game stage in the Middle East many times. With the further tension of fringe politics and international situation, countries have increased their military budgets, which is expected to bring new growth opportunities to the UAV GNSS Antenna market.

Since 1980s, the United States, Japan and China have been exploring the application of unmanned aerial vehicles in the civil field. With the development of information technology, task load, satellite navigation and other technologies, UAV has been widely used in military and civil fields. Since 2014, with the development of UAV industrial chain, the rapid development of flight control and navigation technology, and the rapid development of consumer-grade UAVs, industrial UAVs have developed rapidly in the fields of inspection, security monitoring, protection of agricultural and forestry plants, surveying and mapping geographic information, etc. At present, the society's exploration of civil drones is deepening, and the demand for civil drones is increasing. The rapid development of UAV market directly drives the growth of UAV GNSS Antenna market.
