Synthetic Aperture Radar Market: Key Insights

According to our latest study on " Synthetic Aperture Radar Market - Global and Regional Share, Trend, and Growth Opportunity Analysis – by Component, Frequency Band, Application, Platform, Mode and Geography," the Synthetic Aperture Radar market size is projected to grow from US$ 5.27 billion in 2022 to US$ 12.32 billion by 2030; it is anticipated to grow at a CAGR of 11.2% from 2022 to 2030. Factors such as the rising demand for advanced technologies that offer enhanced environmental awareness, the increasing need for efficient surveillance and communication networks, the growing deployment of space-based radars, and the increasing utilization of SAR for environmental awareness and mapping purposes play a crucial role in market expansion. Moreover, the integration of deep learning is expected to bring new synthetic aperture radar market trends in the coming years.

The Asia Pacific synthetic aperture radar market includes countries such as Australia, China, India, Japan, South Korea, and the Rest of Asia Pacific. China is expected to held principle synthetic aperture radar market share in 2022. The growing application of synthetic aperture radar in remote sensing applications such as environment monitoring, disaster management, maritime surveillance, and target detection enables regions to focus on the development of synthetic aperture radar technology thereby driving the synthetic aperture radar market. For example, in October 2023, an international conference, the Asia Pacific Conference on Synthetic Aperture Radar (APSAR), was held in Bali Island, Indonesia. The conference was devoted to synthetic aperture radar technology development and applications. Thus, such initiatives are expected to boost the Asia Pacific synthetic aperture radar market in the coming years.

The China synthetic aperture radar market is experiencing substantial growth, fueled by various factors shaping the country's urban development landscape. China is severely affected by monsoons and frequent meteorological disasters. The country also has experienced severe landslides, floodwaters, and other geological hazards. Thus, China has emphasized the deployment of interferometric synthetic aperture radar (InSAR) satellites. For example, in March 2023, China launched four interferometric synthetic aperture radar (InSAR) satellites developed by Chinese private satellite developer GalaxySpace using the CZ-2D rocket at the Taiyuan Satellite launch center in North China's Shanxi province. This type of satellite provides comparatively stable configuration and high mapping efficiency. The satellites are a powerful tool for the early identification of major geological hazards in complex areas due to their millimeter-level deformation monitoring capabilities. Thus, such instances offer lucrative opportunities for the synthetic aperture radar market forecast in China.

India's synthetic aperture radar market is poised for substantial growth due to several key factors. Synthetic Aperture Radar technology is widely used for surveillance, reconnaissance, and precision targeting in defense applications. The increasing commercial application of synthetic aperture radar technology is one of the key factors driving the growth of the synthetic aperture radar market in India. For instance, in August 2023, GalaxEye introduced an advanced synthetic aperture radar system integrated into an aerial drone that offers remarkable capabilities for detailed and high-resolution imaging in all weather conditions, including rainy or cloudy environments. This innovative technology utilizes in-house developed data fusion techniques, enabling satellite constellations to capture unparalleled insights and data from space, overcoming the limitations posed by atmospheric obstructions that often hinder the performance of existing single-sensor satellites. The focus on research and development has led to the introduction of innovative laser solutions, which have further propelled the synthetic aperture radar market growth in India. 

Increasing Preference for Ensuring Precision Targeting Capability to Drive Synthetic Aperture Radar Market

The increasing preference for ensuring precision targeting capability, driven by the integration of newer-generation aircraft with advanced electronically scanned array (AESA) radars, which enable the transmission and reception of information on multiple bandwidths, is contributing to the synthetic aperture radar market growth. One of the major features of SAR is its ability to provide target information through inverse SAR (ISAR) images. ISAR technology uses radar imaging to generate high-resolution two-dimensional images of a target by tracking its movement. This capability is particularly valuable for precision targeting, as it allows for the detection and tracking of targets using SAR/ISAR radar images. Precision targeting is of utmost importance in modern warfare and surveillance operations. The ability to accurately identify and track targets is crucial for military and defense organizations. SAR plays a crucial role in fulfilling this need by providing high-resolution imaging capabilities for precise target detection. The rising developments in precision targeting capability are expected to drive the demand for SAR technology and positively influence the synthetic aperture radar market. The integration of active electronically scanned array (AESA) radars, along with the use of X-band and Ku-band radars, enables finer target detection and enhances the overall effectiveness of precision targeting.

Synthetic Aperture Radar Market: Segmental Overview

Based on components, the synthetic aperture radar market is segmented into receiver, transmitter, and antenna. The antenna segment dominated the synthetic aperture radar market share in 2022. The SAR antenna serves as the interface between the SAR system and the surrounding environment. It is responsible for emitting radar signals and capturing the echoes reflected from the Earth's surface. The design and capabilities of the SAR antenna directly impact the system's resolution, range, and overall performance. A high-quality SAR antenna boasts a wideband frequency response, allowing it to operate across a broad range of frequencies. This enables the system to capture imagery with varying resolution and penetration capabilities, catering to diverse application needs. Advanced SAR antennas incorporate sophisticated beam steering and control mechanisms.

  • In December 2023, Saab was awarded a contract by the US Navy to provide a Double Eagle Semi-Autonomous Remotely Operated Vehicle (SAROV) to the Kuwait Naval Force. The SAROV is part of the well-established Double Eagle family of undersea vehicles. It is widely recognized for its safety and effectiveness in supporting mine countermeasure (MCM) operations for various naval forces worldwide. In its SAROV configuration, the vehicle offers dual functionality as both an Autonomous Underwater Vehicle (AUV) for detecting, classifying, and identifying underwater objects, as well as a Remotely Operated Vehicle (ROV) for safely disposing of detected mines.
  • In September 2023, as part of its expansion plan in the UK, Saab established a new radar production facility. This new radar operation in Fareham will provide jobs to 100–150 employees. This expands Saab's production capability for its Giraffe 1X Deployment Set, with the first units now in operation at the Fareham facility.
