The Terrestrial Trunked Radio Market is estimated to be valued at US$ 5.25 Bn in 2023 and is expected to exhibit a CAGR of 9.3% over the forecast period 2023 to 2030, as highlighted in a new report published by Coherent Market Insights.
Market Overview:
Terrestrial trunked radio (TETRA) is a professional mobile radio and two-way transceiver specification. TETRA was specifically designed for use by government agencies, emergency services, transportation, and commercial users. It provides user authentication, advanced talk groups, and push-to-talk group broadcast calls. TETRA systems offer features such as direct-mode operation, discrete and dynamic grouping, priority call and late joiner, encryption, and transmit interrupt.
Market Dynamics:
The growing public safety investment to upgrade existing terrestrial trunked radio infrastructure is one of the major drivers of the terrestrial trunked radio market growth. For instance, according to the 2019 budget proposal released by the Indian government, it allocated around US$ 5.6 billion for public safety and disaster management. Similarly, increasing incidence of natural calamities and terrorist activities have compelled governments worldwide to focus on advancing public safety networks which will propel the demand for terrestrial trunked radios in the coming years. Additionally, terrestrial trunked radio offer features like interoperability and mission critical communication capabilities which makes it ideal for transportation, utilities, and commercial sectors. For example, in railways it offers secure communication for train operations and track maintenance crews.
Segment Analysis
The global terrestrial trunked radio market is dominated by the Tier 3 & Tier 4 cities segment. This segment accounts for over 45% share of the total market owing to growing communication needs of industrial units, transportation sector and public safety organizations in smaller cities & rural areas. While voice communication remains the primary segment, there is increasing demand for broadband push-to-talk services from utility companies operating across large geographical areas.
