Global Mid-and High-Level Precision GPS Receiver Market By Type (Survey Grade and Differential Grade), By Industry Vertical (Agriculture, Mining, Oil & Gas, Construction and Others), By Region, Industry Analysis and Forecast, 2020 - 2026

The Global Mid-and High-Level Precision GPS Receiver Market size is expected to reach $3.7 billion by 2026, rising at a market growth of 11.1% CAGR during the forecast period. A GPS receiver includes a low-noise analog frontend for filtering, amplifying, & down-converting the antenna signal. Additionally, it also includes an analog-to-digital converter (ADC) for digitalizing the quadrature IF signal & an extremely corresponding digital signal processor embedded in an ASIC with a long-established processor core. The prime component of the architecture is the custom digital signal processor, working on tens of independent signal paths (channels) in correspondence. Every channel utilizes a digital correlator to identify, monitor, & correlate a PRN sequence in the transmitted data with the predictable PRN signal, changed, & scaled in time.

The factors like continuous developments to enhance total GPS infrastructure, rising adoption of GPS receivers in the construction industry, growing technological advancements & GPS augmentation systems, and rising accessibility of further cost-effective GPS solutions will fuel the growth of the market. Although, aspects like slower market adoption for the latest technologies, heavy reliability on the availability of satellites, and reducing the demand for GPS receivers because of the COVID-19 pandemic are hampering the market growth. On the other hand, the increasing commercial usage of automated aerial vehicles (UAVs) opens new growth avenues for the adoption of GPS receivers in future years. In addition, the Interfacing of GPS signals with light squared signals possess a major challenge for the mid and high-level precision GPS receiver market.
