Asia-Pacific is evolving as the fastest growing region for industrial radio market, growing at a healthy CAGR of 11.1% throughout the forecast period 2018-2023. The Chinese government is slated to make an investment as a part of “Made in China 2025” project, which will aid in the development of the industrial radio market. Increasing applications in various industries such as aviation and electronics, machinery chemicals, automotive, metallurgy and others, are positively influencing the growth of market.  

North America is another region contributing to the radio business, witnessing revenue of $2.93 billion in 2016, and is projected to reach $4.85 billion by the year 2023. According to OECD, U.S. economic growth is projected to increase in the years 2018 and 2019. The U.S. communication industry is the leading provider of telecom services and is the second largest market across the globe. Demand for wireless communication infrastructure and advanced critical communication devices in aviation and oil & gas industries are driving the demand for the radio industry.

P25 Standard is majorly adopted by majority of the industries that include airports, petroleum, transit, chemical manufacturers, and others, who depend on mission critical transportations with public safety agencies in an emergency situation. Currently, in the U.S., the adoption of these standards has been slowed due to budget glitches. However, funding for communications advancements from the Department of Homeland Security will slightly propel the growth of the mobile radio market across the globe. TETRA systems mostly operate in ultra-high frequency (UHF) band and are being used in European countries, which operates in the 380-430 MHz's band. Regions such as APAC and South America supports 800 MHz’s band, and is propelling the market growth.  Industrial radios play a major role for the development of communications in the commercial industry.   There is a strict requirement for Quality of Service (QOS) in commercial radio end user industry segment to ensure transmission of periodic messages. 

Military and aviation utilizes radio communication for real time command and control. Radio communication provides intelligent and secure command and control even in the harshest conditions. Undersea robots also transmit the data from ship or shore base stations. Various information’s sent through radio are confidential and requires encryption for transmitting the signal, thus fueling the growth of radio communications.

Industrial automation market is also experiencing a significant surge in recent years. In order to improve processes and plant capabilities, companies in these verticals are enhancing the communication capabilities, driving the growth of the industrial radio market.

With advancing technologies, communication sectors are also shifting towards digital technology. Error correction and detection techniques are implemented easily in digital communication. Bandwidth consumptions are also reduced and more simultaneous talking paths are embedded into a single digital radio channel.
