Global Airport Runway Safety System Market 2017-2021

Overview of the global airport runway safety system market

According to Technavio’s analyst, the global airport runway safety system market is anticipated to grow at a steady rate and post a CAGR of more than 8% during the forecast period. The emergence of ground-based augmentation system (GBAS) for CAT-III will drive the growth prospects for the global airport runway safety system market until the end of 2021. The advanced GBAS landing system (GLS) for CATII or III precision approach allows an aircraft with an autopilot landing system to safely land with a minimum of 200-meter runway visual range (RVR) and at a decision height of 50 meters. Additionally, CAT-III GBAS also offers various benefits such as increased air traffic capacity, air traffic management, reduce air traffic noise, and enable curved approaches, and landing on close parallel runways. Moreover, research and developmental activities are conducted to reduce the technical risks associated with GBAS and authenticate new requirements in terms of GAST-D. All the above factors are likely to accelerate the rate of revenue generation in the global airport runway safety system market.

The implementation of stringent public regulations towards the development of airtight runway safety infrastructure will drive the growth prospects for the global airport runway safety system market for the next four years. For instance, the Runway Safety Area (RSA) improvements in the US ensures an additional level of safety for landing and departing aircraft. Similarly, the European Action Plan directed toward the prevention of runway incursions was released in 2003. All these public regulations educate the concerned personnel regarding the associated communication breakdown, ground navigation errors, and improper surface signs and markings.
