(Aviation-NewsWire.Com, February 26, 2019 ) As the world is facing turbulence in political and economic condition, the airlines and defense forces tend towards, technology insertion than new aircraft procurement. The major airlines across the globe and the defense forces are opting for aircraft retrofit programs heavily. The retrofit programs or modernization programs include various parameters and up gradation of different components of an aircraft. The modernization programs are undertaken by the airlines and the defense forces, in order to equip their aircrafts with the latest technologies. Among all the parameters, the up gradation of communication systems and navigation technologies play an important role. The manufacturers of aircraft communication systems and navigation systems are constantly developing advanced technologies with an objective to provide the airliners, defense forces and air traffic controller, a hassle free capability to converse among each other.
The advanced technologies include satellite communication (SATCOM), which eases the air traffic controller to locate and identify the aircraft even when it is flying over oceans or adverse environmental conditions for long hours, where air traffic management is feasible. SATCOM also helps the aircraft pilot to receive signals in such situations from the ground station controller and can navigate the aircraft accordingly. The major advantage of SATCOM is it can operate with or without human interference. Thus helping the controller as well as the pilot to communicate and navigate. Moreover, the integration of SATCOM in commercial aircrafts and defense aircrafts has been mandated by various aeronautical organizations across the globe. This factor compelled the commercial airliners to upgrade or modernize their aircrafts in order to increase the safety feature of the aircraft.
The global aircraft communication systems market has been segmented on basis of various parameters such as types, components, aircraft types and geography. Based on types the market for aircraft communication systems is segmented as VHF/UHF/HF radios, data links and SATCOM. The components segment include antenna, transponder, transceiver, and display & processors. The aircraft communication systems market is bifurcated on basis of aircraft types as commercial aircrafts and military aircrafts. The market is further analyzed by categorizing the market on basis of five strategic regions across the globe as North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, Middle East and Africa, and South America.
Some of the major players operating in the aircraft communication systems market is profiled on basis of five strategic regions across the globe. The players include Honeywell International Inc. (United States), Cobham Plc. (United Kingdom), L-3 Technologies Inc. (United States), Thales Group (France), Viasat Inc. (United States), Rockwell Collins (United States), Raytheon Company (United States), Northrop Grumman Corporation (United States), General Dynamics Corporation (United States) and Harris Corporation (United States) among others. Many established companies as well as emerging companies in the field of aircraft communication systems are investing in aircraft communication systems market owing to the potential improvements related to accuracy, and operational efficiency.
