The Asia Pacific synthetic aperture radar market was valued at US$ 1,140.44 million in 2022 and is expected to reach US$ 2,823.14 million by 2030; it is estimated to register a CAGR of 12.0% from 2022 to 2030.
Rising Development of Dual-Band SAR Boosts Asia Pacific Synthetic Aperture Radar Market
Dual-band synthetic aperture radar (SAR) technology operates in two frequency bands simultaneously, allowing for enhanced imaging capabilities and improved image quality compared to single-band SAR systems. The use of dual-band SAR offers several advantages. Firstly, it enables better target discrimination and identification, as the combination of two different frequency bands provides more detailed and accurate imaging. This is particularly valuable in applications such as military surveillance, border control, and maritime monitoring, where the ability to distinguish between objects and detect subtle changes is crucial.
Secondly, dual-band SAR technology enhances the system's ability to penetrate and detect objects under challenging environmental conditions. Utilizing two different frequency bands, SAR systems can overcome limitations posed by factors such as vegetation cover, weather conditions, and surface roughness. This increased robustness allows for reliable imaging even in adverse conditions, expanding the range of applications for SAR technology. Moreover, the improved image quality offered by dual-band SAR systems facilitates better interpretation and analysis of the acquired data. This is particularly beneficial in applications such as disaster management, environmental monitoring, and infrastructure planning, where accurate and detailed information is vital for decision-making. Thus, dual-band synthetic aperture radar (SAR) technology has emerged as a significant advancement in the synthetic aperture radar market, presenting new opportunities for market growth and expansion.
Asia Pacific Synthetic Aperture Radar Market Overview
The Asia Pacific synthetic aperture radar market is segmented into Australia, China, India, Japan, South Korea, and the Rest of Asia Pacific. 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. For example, in October 2023, an international conference, the Asia Pacific Conference on Synthetic Aperture Radar (APSAR), was held on Bali Island, Indonesia. The conference was devoted to synthetic aperture radar technology development and applications. This conference was jointly hosted with the 2023 IEEE International Conference on Aerospace Electronics and Remote Sensing Technology (ICARES 2023).
Several players across Asia Pacific are entering into partnerships for the development of synthetic aperture radar. For example, in October 2023, Data Patterns entered into a licensing and transfer of technology (ToT) agreement with space nodal agency IN-SPACe for Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) development. The partnership will help Data Patterns in radar development efforts.
China is severely affected by monsoon weather and frequent meteorological disasters. China 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 formation 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 capability. They can provide data support for exploration and the prevention of land subsidence, collapse, landslides, and other disasters. Thus, such instances drive the growth of the synthetic aperture radar market in Asia Pacific.
