The growing aviation industry is expected to propel the growth of the satellite-based global navigation satellite system (GNSS) augmentation system market going forward. The aviation industry refers to the collective business activities and infrastructure related to the design, manufacturing, operation, and maintenance of aircraft. The aviation industry is growing due to a combination of demographic, economic factors. Satellite navigation through augmentation systems will assist pilots in all flight phases, from taxing to take-off, en-route flying, and landing, as it improves the accuracy of position, velocity, and time information provided by satellite navigation signals. GNSS augmentation systems enhance the integrity of position information, reducing the risk of errors and providing pilots with more reliable navigation data. For instance, in September 2023, according to the International Air Transport Association, a Canada-based trade association, Asia-Pacific airlines saw a 105.8% increase in July 2023 traffic compared to July 2022. Therefore, the growing aviation industry is driving the growth of the satellite-based global navigation satellite system (GNSS) augmentation system market.

Major companies operating in the satellite-based global navigation satellite system (GNSS) augmentation system market are innovating new satellite positioning chip to increase their profitability in the market. A satellite positioning chip refers global navigation satellite system (GNSS) receiver, is an electronic component that receives and processes signals from satellite constellation. For instance, in January 2024, Airoha Technology Corp., a Taiwan-based technology company launched AG3335MA satellite positioning chip series. The chip series has a professional-grade GNSS receiver measurement engine with an ultra-low satellite tracking sensitivity of -167 dBm and a cold boot positioning time of just 25 seconds. It can operate reliably in extreme environments, ranging from -40 to 105 degrees Celsius. The AG3335MA series has been integrated with MediaTek's dimensity auto platform, providing comprehensive solutions and technical testing services to automotive manufacturers worldwide. It has also completed the AEC-Q100 Grade 2 reliability qualification tests for automotive applications.
