Automatic Dependent Surveillance-Broadcast (ADS-B) Market Report and Forecast 2025-2034

The global automatic dependent surveillance-broadcast (ADS-B) market reached a value of USD 640.60 Million in 2024. The market is assessed to grow at a CAGR of 15.10% during 2025-2034 to reach a value of USD 2.61 billion by 2034.

Various Benefits Offered by Automatic Dependent Surveillance-Broadcast (ADS-B) Technology Aiding the Market

Automatic dependent surveillance-broadcast (ADS-B) technology allows pilots present in the cockpit and air traffic controllers on the ground to identify aircraft traffic with significant precision. It also provides pilots with real-time weather information and enhances their situational awareness. Countries such as the United States, Australia, Indonesia, China, India, and Columbia, among others, have mandated the deployment of ADS-B systems to enhance the safety of aircraft and air traffic flow. There is a growing deployment of ADS-B technology to reduce carbon emissions and overall costs for airline operators while providing real-time information relating to aircraft parameters and positions to ground control and pilots.

Automatic dependent surveillance-broadcast (ADS-B) refers to a surveillance technique that enables ground vehicles and aircraft to broadcast their position, identification, velocity, and altitude to air traffic controllers and other aircraft. It requires no external stimulus and relies on onboard systems to provide surveillance information. Due to its accurate and three-dimensional positioning, the technology eliminates the reliance on ground-based radar systems. ADS-B technology combining conflict avoidance and conflict monitoring as well as air traffic control surveillance is used to improve the quality of air traffic management. Due to highly precise GPS-based surveillance offered by ADS-B technology, its use to perform life-saving search and rescue missions is considerably rising. There is a rising implementation of ADS-B technology to improve the quality of monitoring data and aviation management. Moreover, ADS-B is likely to replace conventional radar monitoring technologies in aircraft operation monitoring due to its wider coverage and enhanced precision.

The modernisation of the air transportation system is driving the adoption of automatic dependent surveillance-broadcast (ADS-B) solutions. Moreover, with the increasing focus on reducing flight time and fuel burns to optimise the operation of aircraft while enhancing its overall safety and efficiency, the deployment of ADS-B systems is likely to surge in the coming years. The growing air traffic across the globe is driving the utilisation of ADS-B systems. Besides, ADS-B technology is increasingly being deployed by air navigation service providers (ANSPs) to bolster the capacity and operational efficiency of the regional air transportation system while decreasing the cost of providing services.

Use of Automatic Dependent Surveillance-Broadcast (ADS-B) Technology To Enhance Real Time Situational Awareness is Expected to Contribute to Growth of Global Automatic Dependent Surveillance-Broadcast (ADS-B) Market

The deployment of ADS-B technology to reduce infrastructural costs, eliminate the requirement for building new radars, and enable airports to handle growing air traffics has considerably surged.

As ADS-B technology provides enhanced Airborne Situational Awareness (AIRB), its utilisation to improve the capacity, efficiency, and safety of controllers and pilots is increasing. Moreover, the growing deployment of the technology to lower runaway incursion incidents during the low-visibility situation is anticipated to bolster the market demand in the forecast period.

ADS-B technology enables pilots to access real-time traffic displays, hence significantly enhancing their situational awareness. Pilots in aircraft equipped with ADS-B technology can also see the position of other aircraft, along with its speed, direction, and relative altitude, which enables them to optimise flight path and bolster overall flight safety.
