Phased Array Antenna Market Report 2025

The phased array antenna market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $3.51 billion in 2024 to $3.83 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 9.2%. Growth in the historic period was driven by the expanding use of Internet of Things (IoT) devices, greater integration of automotive sensors, increased demand for satellite communications, growing need for radar systems, and the rollout of 5G infrastructure.

The phased array antenna market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $5.41 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 9%. Growth in the forecast period is expected to be driven by the advancement of autonomous vehicles, increasing demand for secure communications, the need for low-latency connectivity, the expansion of commercial space activities, and rising government defense expenditures. Key trends during this time include the integration of phased arrays in commercial aviation, the development of compact and affordable arrays, a move toward digital beamforming, the fusion of artificial intelligence (AI) with signal control, and growing demand for multi-function radar systems.

The expanding 5G infrastructure is expected to drive the growth of the phased array antenna market in the future. 5G infrastructure includes a network of macro and small-cell base stations, edge computing systems, and a cloud-native core network, all designed to provide ultra-fast, low-latency connectivity for applications such as IoT, augmented reality, and autonomous vehicles. This infrastructure is growing due to substantial investments from both governments and the private sector aimed at enhancing digital connectivity and technological competitiveness. Phased array antennas improve 5G infrastructure by enabling fast and precise beamforming, which boosts signal strength, coverage, and capacity, especially in densely populated urban areas. For example, in December 2023, a report from the Office of Communications (Ofcom), the UK’s communications regulatory body, indicated that by September 2023, the UK had over 18,500 5G deployments across around 81,000 sites, up from about 12,000 deployments in 2022. Hence, the growth of 5G infrastructure is supporting the phased array antenna market’s expansion.

Leading companies in the phased array antenna market are focusing on creating innovative solutions, including satellite communication technologies, to meet the growing demand for efficient, high-performance connectivity. Satellite communications use artificial satellites to transmit and amplify radio signals between ground stations, enabling seamless global transmission of voice, video, and data. For instance, in October 2023, Keysight Technologies Inc., a US-based electronics software and measurement tools producer, launched a phased array antenna control and calibration solution designed specifically for satellite communications. This solution supports multi-channel phase and amplitude control over large antenna arrays, essential for beam steering and high-frequency satellite operations. It integrates advanced signal analysis tools with real-time feedback and automation, greatly speeding up design validation and production testing. The solution covers a wide frequency range, including the Ka-band and higher, making it well-suited for next-generation satellite and aerospace applications requiring high-speed, low-latency communication.

In February 2024, Qorvo Inc., a US-based semiconductor company, acquired Anokiwave for an undisclosed amount. This acquisition aims to enhance Qorvo’s capabilities in advanced RF front-end solutions by incorporating Anokiwave’s expertise in active antenna integrated circuits (ICs). This integration supports the development of high-performance phased array systems for 5G, satellite communications, and defense sectors. Anokiwave Inc. is a US company specializing in phased array antenna solutions.

Note that the outlook for this market is being affected by rapid changes in trade relations and tariffs globally. The report will be updated prior to delivery to reflect the latest status, including revised forecasts and quantified impact analysis. The report’s Recommendations and Conclusions sections will be updated to give strategies for entities dealing with the fast-moving international environment.

The rapid escalation of U.S. tariffs and the resulting trade tensions in spring 2025 are significantly impacting the construction sector, particularly in materials procurement and project costs. Higher duties on imported steel, aluminum, lumber, and machinery have driven up expenses for builders, contractors, and infrastructure developers, leading to increased project bids and delayed timelines. Construction equipment manufacturers face similar challenges, with tariffs on essential components and raw materials inflating production costs and squeezing margins. Additionally, retaliatory tariffs in international markets have curtailed exports of U.S.-made construction equipment and materials, further affecting profitability. The sector must now prioritize local sourcing, modular construction techniques, and supply chain diversification to control costs and ensure project viability amid ongoing trade uncertainties.

Phased array antennas are systems that consist of multiple radiating elements, with the phase of each element electronically adjusted to steer the signal direction without physically moving the antenna. This technology allows for fast beam steering, stronger signals, and better target tracking, making it well-suited for radar, communications, and defense uses.

The primary types of phased array antennas include phased array antennas, flat panel antennas, and reflector antennas. A phased array antenna employs numerous radiating elements with adjustable phases to electronically direct the signal beam without physical movement. Key components include transmitters, receivers, beamforming networks, and others. These antennas function across various frequency bands such as high frequency (HF), very high frequency (VHF), ultra high frequency (UHF), super high frequency (SHF), and extremely high frequency (EHF). They find applications in military and defense, telecommunications, space exploration, weather forecasting, and remote sensing, serving users like aerospace and defense sectors, telecom providers, government bodies, and commercial companies.
