The airport antenna market was valued at US$ 1.27 billion in 2019 and is projected to reach US$ 1.99 billion by 2027; it is expected to grow at a CAGR of 5.4% during the forecast period.
An antenna is a device that receives and transmits electrical signals. Antennas play an important role in airports to facilitate mobile telephony, satellite communication, and wireless local area networks. An aircraft uses radio frequency antennas to navigate their destinations and communicate with air traffic control. Airport antennas are mainly used for military airports and commercial airports. In military airports, the antennas enable enhanced communication by introducing high frequency, very high frequency, and ultra-high frequency bands. These advanced antenna solutions provide vehicular, ground-based, airborne, and shipboard applications that helps exhibit multiple military operations.
The advancements in airport antenna systems are increasing owing to the rising construction and renovation of new and existing airports across the world. As the number of passengers travelling through flights is increasing, there is a huge deployment of wireless LAN Wi-Fi hotspot antennas in airports to provide high speed internet access to the passengers. The Mobile Mark, Inc., a UK-based company, in October 2019, offered 5G fleet management antennas for Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) and Wi-Fi facilities that would be used for communication, public safety, and vehicle fleet management.

Impact of COVID-19 Pandemic on Airport Antenna Market
The global aviation industry is one of the major industries facing serious disruptions such as flight cancellations, temporary country lockdowns, and reduction in passenger numbers, as a result of COVID-19 pandemic. According to International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO), in 2020, there is ~57%–60% decline in number of passengers compared to 2019 and ~US$ 256 billion passenger revenue loss from January to august 2020. Subsequently, plummeting the demand for improvement of airport infrastructure development including the demand for airport antennas globally. Moreover, the lockdown of various plants and factories that develop components, sensors, controller, and material for antennas in leading regions such as North America, Europe, the Middle East and Africa, and South America is affecting the global supply chains and negatively impacting the developments in airports, establishment of new airports, and raw materials.
Airport Antenna Market Insights
Surge in development as well as modernization of airport infrastructure
The Governments of different countries are focusing on enhancing airport infrastructure, owing to the growing number of air passengers across the world. According to the International Air Transport Association (IATA) 20-year estimations, the number of global air passengers is expected to reach ~8.2 billion by 2037, with a CAGR of 3.5%. As per IATA calculations, the aviation industry is expected to witness robust growth in the next 20 years and offers diverse benefits to various stakeholders involved in the ecosystem. North America is projected to grow with a CAGR of 2.4%, which is ~1.4 billion passengers and Europe is expected to grow with a CAGR of 2.0% i.e., around 1.9 billion passengers during the forecast period. Although, the significant portion of the growth is anticipated to come from the East of the world. IATA also estimated that, APAC is anticipated to be the leading contributor to the global aviation industry's revenue due to increasing air traffic growth in countries such as India, Singapore, China, and Japan. APAC is expected to witness a rise in passengers' number to around 2.35 billion by 2037 and reach ~3.90 billion passengers by 2037.
