Market Dynamics

Introduction:

What are military GNSS receivers?

Military GNSS (Global Navigation Satellite System) receivers are specialized devices used by armed forces to determine precise position, navigation, and timing (PNT) information in challenging environments, including combat zones. They are essentially the military-grade version of civilian GPS receivers but are built with enhanced features to meet the strict demands of defense operations. 

Segment Analysis

By Product Type

“GPS receiver is estimated to be the dominant segment whereas other GNSS receivers are expected to exhibit the fastest growth during the forecast period”.

• The market is segmented into GPS receivers and other GNSS receivers. Between these sub-segments, the GPS receiver holds the lion’s share in the market, owing to massive investments in such devices, particularly by the US DoD.
• Although there have been some market developments in other GNSS receivers in countries such as China and Russia, they are minor in comparison to the dominance of GPS receivers.

By Application Type

“PGM-Based GNSS receivers are likely to maintain their market dominance in the coming years, whereas aviation-based GNSS receivers are likely to grow at the fastest rate”.

• The market is bifurcated into aviation-based GNSS receivers, ground-based GNSS receivers, PGM-based GNSS receivers, handheld GNSS receivers, and maritime equipment-based GNSS receivers.
• Among these sub-segments, the PGM-based GNSS receivers are expected to remain the most sought-after segment in the foreseeable future. GNSS receivers form an integral component of the PGMs, which are in high demand due to the rising border conflicts and terror threats.

By Frequency Type

“The dual-frequency GNSS receivers are expected to remain the largest as well as the fastest-growing frequency over the next six years”.

• The market is classified as single-frequency GNSS receivers and dual-frequency GNSS receivers. Between these frequency types, dual-frequency is the more commonly used frequency type for military GNSS receivers as it provides enhanced accuracy and is more resistant to multipath errors, which are common in single-frequency GNSS receivers.
• Furthermore, if one of the frequencies fails, the other serves as a backup, ensuring uninterrupted signal transmission.

Regional Analysis

“North America is expected to remain the largest market over the next six years, whereas Asia-Pacific is likely to grow at the fastest rate”.

• In terms of regions, North America dominates the global military GNSS receiver market and is expected to register steady growth throughout the forecast period. The USA, in particular, accounts for a mammoth market share, owing to the large-scale investments of the US DoD in the development and procurement of military GNSS receivers.
• Concurrently, the Asia-Pacific is estimated to witness the fastest market growth in the foreseeable future, due to the growth of regional GNSS systems, increasing military expenditure, rising regional terror threats, and continuous border conflicts between India-Pakistan and India-China, among others.
