The train communication gateways systems market size has grown exponentially in recent years. It will grow from $0.10 billion in 2023 to $0.13 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 24.4%. The expansion observed during the historical period can be attributed to several factors, including increasing urbanization, aging infrastructure, government regulations, rising passenger expectations, and a heightened focus on safety and security.
The train communication gateways systems market size is expected to see exponential growth in the next few years. It will grow to $0.32 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 24.7%. The anticipated growth in the forecast period can be attributed to smart transportation initiatives, the electrification of railways, the expansion of high-speed rail networks, and the increasing demand for passenger comfort and experience. Major trends expected in this period include the increasing use of software-defined networking, the adoption of advanced encryption techniques for cybersecurity, the rise of platform-as-a-service (PaaS) models, and the integration of voice recognition technology.
The expansion of the train communication gateway system market is anticipated to be driven by the increasing electrification of railways in the foreseeable future. Railway electrification involves transitioning diesel-powered train systems to operate using electricity, typically via overhead lines or third rails. This shift is driven by factors such as enhanced energy efficiency, reduced emissions, improved performance, and the integration of advanced technologies, aligning with global sustainability initiatives and transportation modernization efforts. Electric trains require sophisticated communication systems to efficiently manage power distribution, traction control, and other onboard functions. Train communication gateway systems play a vital role in facilitating communication between various electrified train components, ensuring smooth operation and optimizing energy consumption. For example, in February 2024, Eurostat reported that the number of railcars powered by electricity in France increased to 7113, up from 7081 in 2021 and 6908 in 2020. Consequently, the growing electrification of railways is poised to propel the train communication gateway systems market.
Key players in the train communication gateway systems market are focusing on the development of wireless communication infrastructure, such as future railway mobile communication systems, to enhance safety, efficiency, and connectivity within rail networks. Railway mobile communication systems encompass infrastructure and technologies deployed in railway networks to enable wireless communication between trains, trackside equipment, and control centers. For instance, in September 2022, Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd. introduced the Future Railway Mobile Communication System (FRMCS) solution to drive digital transformation in the railway sector. This solution aims to improve train operational efficiency and safety by facilitating wireless services for train control and dispatch, railway operations and maintenance (O&M), and the Internet of Things (IoT). It supports new services such as locomotive status monitoring, train operation monitoring, and visualized dispatch of O&M personnel, enhancing fault prediction accuracy and O&M efficiency.
