Therefore, the demand for automobiles from the US contributes to the growing demand for North America high precision GNSS antennas for their application in the vehicle navigation system. Such trends are anticipated to drive the North America high precision GNSS antennas market.

The North America high precision GNSS antennas market in Canada is driven by various factors. Canada is one of the top ten light vehicle producers in the world. Stellantis, Ford, General Motors, Honda, and Toyota are among the five worldwide OEMs that construct more than 2 million vehicles annually in their respective Canadian assembly factories. Ontario has a unique ecosystem of world-class auto assemblers, parts manufacturers, and research institutes that have been serving foreign clients for decades. Hence, the country's robust automotive market is anticipated to offer lucrative opportunities for the players in the North America high precision GNSS antennas market.

Over the years, Mexico has experienced significant market growth in its industrial sector due to the trade agreement between the US, Canada, and Mexico. This agreement enables free goods transportation within the countries, showcasing the rise in manufacturing plants nationwide. Several major vehicle manufacturers operating in the country include Volvo, Mercedes, and Kia. The presence of these companies has thereby increased the production volume of vehicles, contributing to the demand for GNSS systems in the automotives. In addition, several major electronics manufacturers operating in the country include Samsung, Foxconn, Intel, and Panasonic. The presence of these companies has increased the production volume of electronics such as fitness trackers, smart speakers, phones, and AR/VR headsets, which generates the demand for high-precision GNSS antenna to communicate and transfer data effectively and efficiently through advanced antenna networking systems. Such developments in the country are anticipated to propel the North America high precision GNSS antennas market growth in the near future.

Increasing use of military spending on drones drives the growth of the North America high precision GNSS antennas market

The change in the modern warfare system has encouraged governments across the globe to allocate higher funds to respective military forces to procure advanced technologies and equipment. The defense forces across the globe are investing substantial amounts to strengthen military forces with advanced technologies, machinery, and vehicles. For instance, according to the Stockholm International Peace Research Institute (SIPRI), global military expenditure increased by 3.7% in 2022 and reached a new high of US$ 2,240 billion. The continuous urge for new technologies for combat and non-combat operations by the defense forces is further boosting the demand for drones for their applications in warfare, intelligence, surveillance, target acquisition and reconnaissance (ISTAR), cargo services, and others. The North American government and military forces are engaged in developing and providing drones to the military forces of the region and other nations to carry out military operations.

A few of the developments in the military forces are:

• In February 2022, Skydio, an American manufacturer of drones, bagged a contract worth US$ 20.2 million annually to supply X2D UAVs to the US Army for the Short-Range Reconnaissance Program (SRR).
• In December 2022, Lockheed Martin Corporation won a US$ 157.5 million contract from the UK Army to provide 105 fixed-wing Stalker VXE30 drones and 159 rotary-wing Indago 4 uncrewed devices for ten years.

Such focus of military forces on drones generates the demand for GNSS systems as they offer a high degree of positioning accuracy for applications such as mapping, surveying, search and rescue, and targeting operations. It is also used to georeference gathered data, avoid collisions, or provide tracking capabilities. The GNSS antennas are mounted on the drones to gather the data and act according to their designed operations. Thus, the rise in spending on drones fuels the North America high precision GNSS antennas market.
