The increased demand for precise positioning solutions across a range of industries, including aerospace, defence, and transportation, is driving growth in the market for GNSS (Global Navigation Satellite System) simulators. The demand for affordable testing and training solutions, growing GNSS applications in developing industries, and simulation technology advancements are all driving product adoption.


By Component, Insights
In 2024, the hardware segment held the most revenue share, and it is anticipated to expand rapidly in the years to come. The progress in semiconductor and RF technology is key to this growth, as new low-power RF components allow better GNSS simulator hardware that can accurately mimic various satellite systems and conditions. The software market is also expected to grow dramatically as a result of advancements in signal processing and software algorithms. Software simulators provide users with the ability to customize simulations and analyze results more effectively.

By Type Insights
The multichannel segment had a large revenue share in 2024, fueled by the increased use of IoT devices and consumer applications. Products like smart wearables and asset trackers are contributing to the need for precise positioning solutions. The single-channel segment is poised for rapid growth, driven by the adoption of advanced navigation systems and safety standards, especially in the aviation industry. There is a rising demand for single-channel GNSS simulators to meet regulatory requirements for aircraft and airlines.

By GNSS Receiver Insights
The GPS segment accounted for the largest revenue share in 2024 and is expected to grow quickly. This growth is linked to GPS technology being used across numerous industries, including automotive and aviation. The demand for precise navigation is increasing due to the rise of IoT devices and autonomous technologies. The Galileo segment is also expected to grow significantly, with applications in precision agriculture and UAVs requiring specialized testing environments for Galileo signals.

By Application Insights
In 2024, the navigation and mapping segment held a significant revenue share and is expected to expand quickly. This is driven by the expansion of location-based services and digital mapping, which are vital in sectors like transportation and urban planning. There is also anticipated growth in the surveying market as high-precision GNSS technology becomes more adopted, offering essential benefits for validating GNSS performance in real-world settings.

By End-User Insights
There was a notable revenue share in 2024 in the consumer electronics market due to the growing need for precise location in portable devices. As smartphones and wearable devices are widely used for navigation and location services, precise GNSS functionality is vital. GNSS simulators help manufacturers ensure their devices work smoothly in various real-world scenarios. The automotive sector is expected to experience the fastest growth during the forecast period, driven by the increasing use of advanced navigation and driver-assistance systems. With the push towards self-driving technologies, automotive manufacturers need reliable GNSS functionality. GNSS simulators allow them to test navigation systems under many different conditions, ensuring accuracy during real-world driving.

Regional Insights
North America dominated the market in 2024 as GNSS technology was widely used in a variety of industries, including aerospace, defence, transportation, and telecommunications. The global positioning system (GPS) was developed in the United States and is now a widely used GNSS system around the world. To test and enhance location-based services, satellite communication networks, and navigation systems, GNSS simulators are constantly needed. The regulatory framework in the region is favourable, and significant investment in R&D encourages the development of advanced GNSS simulation systems to fulfil the needs of various industries and applications.



Market Competitive Landscape
The market for GNSS simulators is competitive, driven by advancements in technology, a focus on the industry, and growing investments in simulation features. Leading companies like Spirent Communications and Rohde & Schwarz cater to various industries, including automotive and aerospace. The market is growing due to the use of GNSS in autonomous vehicles, IoT, and smart cities, with firms investing in research for better simulation accuracy.

Recent Developments:

  • In February 2024, dSPACE worked with Spirent Communications to increase the accuracy of real-time locating scenarios in autonomous driving hardware-in-the-loop test systems. Integrating dSPACE's AD-HIL systems with Spirent's GSS7000 GNSS simulator allows developers to validate autonomous driving systems in critical location-based scenarios using genuine satellite signals.
  • In September 2023, ETS-Lindgren and Rohde & Schwarz collaborated to develop a turnkey 5G NR A-GNSS antenna testing system. It incorporates the GNSS simulator, SMBV100B signal generator, and Rohde & Schwarz's CMX500 OBT tester into ETS-Lindgren's OTA antenna performance testing system. This, together with CTIA-compliant EMQuest software and ETS-Lindgren chamber equipment, provides full 5G NR A-GNSS testing capabilities.
