Market Overview:
The global direction finder market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 5.5% from 2018 to 2030. The growth in the market can be attributed to the increasing demand for portable direction finders, base-station direction finders, and vehicle-mounted direction finders across different applications such as air traffic control, vessel traffic service, and mobile land. Additionally, the growing adoption of location-based services (LBS) is also contributing to the growth of this market. However, factors such as high installation and maintenance costs may restrain the growth of this market during the forecast period.
Product Definition:
A direction finder is a navigational instrument that is used to determine the direction of an object, such as a ship, airplane, or missile. Direction finders are often used in conjunction with other navigational tools, such as compasses and radars. The importance of direction finders lies in their ability to help pilots and ship captains stay on course even when visibility is poor or when they are unable to see their targets directly.
Portable Direction Finder:
Portable direction finder is a tool which helps in finding the bearing of an object. It's used by people who are unable to use traditional directional finders such as metal detectors and radar-based directional finds. Portable direction finders can be battery powered or solar powered, they can also be connected to the internet so that they receive bearings from satellites.
The global Direction Finder market size was valued at USD 6,500 million in 2016.
Base-station Direction Finder:
A base-station direction finder is a device used to determine the direction of incoming signals. It is an essential component in GSM, CDMA, and other mobile communication systems as it helps in improving the sensitivity of cell phones and other devices.
The market for base-station direction finder has witnessed significant growth over the past few years owing to its increasing application areas such as wireless local area networks (WLANs), satellite communications, WiMax technology etc.
Application Insights:
Air traffic control was the dominant application segment in 2017 and is expected to maintain its lead over the forecast period. The air traffic control segment comprises military, civil and commercial aviation sectors. In an effort to enhance safety, efficiency and communication capabilities among various aircraft, air traffic controllers use direction finders for better situational awareness of a flight path or track. These devices help determine the bearing of a radio signal from an unknown source by measuring the angle between them.
The vessel traffic service segment is anticipated to witness significant growth over the forecast period owing to rising demand for VTS solutions from shipping companies operating on major waterways such as Panama Canal and St Lawrence Seaway System (St Lawrence River). Vessel-mounted direction finders provide critical information regarding vessel position so that it can be displayed on radar screens at appropriate positions within these systems thereby ensuring enhanced operational performance across all levels of defense & security management within these systems.
Regional Analysis:
North America dominated the global market in terms of revenue share in 2017. The region is expected to continue its dominance over the forecast period, with a notable increase in demand for VTS and MDS devices. This can be attributed to growing air traffic congestion and increasing number of aircraft operations at busy airports across the U.S., Canada, and Mexico. Europe is also estimated to witness significant growth over the coming years owing to rising investments by government agencies for deploying ATFDs at various locations such as railway stations, tunnels, buildings, etc.
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand for directional drilling in the oil and gas industry
- Rising popularity of electric vehicles
- Growing number of data centers worldwide
- Proliferation of smart cities and the Internet of Things (IoT)
- Increased investment in renewable energy
