The Global air traffic control
(ATC) equipment market is expected to reach USD 4.23 billion by
2020, according to a new study by Grand View Research, Inc. Need for
construction of new airports, and expansion & modernization of the existing
ones to address increasing passenger & freight traffic is expected to
increase air traffic control equipment demand. Advancements in microelectronics
have provided ample growth opportunities for the air traffic control equipment
market and further innovations in the domain are expected to buoy market growth
over the forecast period.
Owing to continuous need for
monitoring air traffic, interruption in the activity is not feasible which
makes replacement of obsolete ATC equipment a cumbersome task. In order to
maintain the flow of traffic monitoring, new equipment is operated in parallel
with the existing one before the latter is phased out completely, which poses a
challenge to air traffic control equipment market growth.

Further key findings from the
report suggest:
- The
communications air traffic control equipment market accounted for a high
revenue share in 2013 and the trend is expected to continue throughout the
forecast period owing to increased need for replacement of obsolete
equipment with new ones equipped with enhanced digital data communication.
- The military
aircraft segment is expected to witness high demand throughout the
forecast period owing to the mission-critical nature of the domain. In
October 2014, Aquila, a joint venture between Thales and NATS was awarded
a USD 2.36 billion contract by the UK Ministry of Defense (MOD) for
transforming terminal air traffic management at military airfields.
- Europe and
North America were the major air traffic control equipment regional markets
in 2013, which can be attributed to increased government efforts
pertaining to securing air traffic and aircraft. Asia Pacific is expected
to witness high growth due to increased initiatives for efficient
infrastructure.
- Leading
players in the air traffic control equipment market have emphasized
heavily on the enhancing equipment reliability to address minimum
tolerance levels. Incorporation of effective collision avoidance system in
ATC equipment is expected to be a key focus area for countering increased
air traffic. Manufacturers and developers upgrade landing and navigation
aids periodically to maintain safety and improve efficiency.
