Transponder Market

A transponder is a wireless contact, tracking, or control system that picks up an incoming signal and responds to it automatically. The terminology is a contraction of word transmitter and answering agent. Transponders eventually gained common use in both civil and military aviation. A number of large airports have provided information in the automatic terminal information service (ATIS) broadcasts when a taxi operation requires transponder to be activated. Satellite transponders form a part of a satellite's payload. They are mainly used to transmit and receive uplinked signals. Due to huge difference in distance between satellite and transmitter, signals being transmitted to the earth by satellites are of very low power level. Transponders are configured at different frequency ranges so that the received low-power signals may be amplified.

COVID-19 scenario Analysis: 

• Global transponder market has been significantly impacted by the COVID-19 outbreak. New projects throughout the world have stalled, which, in turn, have led to decline in demand for analog semiconductors. 
• Global factories have struggled to integrate new transponders as workers have stayed in their homes, which disrupted the global supply chains. 
• The impact of COVID-19 on this market is temporary as just the production and supply chain is stalled. Once the situation improves, production, supply chains, and demand for transponders are gradually going to increase.  
• This COVID-19 lockdown would help companies think about more advanced transponders to enhance efficiency.

Top impacting factors: Market Scenario Analysis, Trends, Drivers, and Impact Analysis

Factors such as high growth in the KU-band & Ka-band services, technology upgrades in the VSAT system and increased demand for high-performance satellite (HTS) is help to boost the demands for transponder market. In addition, the need for significant capital investment and satellite launch failures & operational anomalies is expected to hamper the growth of the market. Growth in high-data applications, demand for corporate networks, evolution of UHDTVs and high-definition channels, advancement in service quality and growing number in video subscribers are some of the driving factors anticipated to propel the satellite transponder market around the world.

The global transponder market trends are as follows:

Transponders leasing to conquer the Europe market

Europe is one of the costliest regions followed by Australia and New Zealand. Transponder leasing is highly reliant on the implementation of HD video broadcasting and a widespread deployment of High Dynamic Range (HDR). Although leasing services are expected to lead the transponder market with a comparatively high market share, which is subject to change depending on the revision of transponders purchasing cost and complete satellite launch cost and servicing and support.

Technological developments in transponder in North America to boost market growth

North America is the major contributor to the development of commercial satellite transponder leasing services. The satellite production and operators have predictable Ka-band's ability to offer 4K-UHD and OTT TV services. These markets are expected to drive demand for Ka-band transponders in North America. Due to the desperate need for secure satellite-based connectivity in video streaming, broadband accesses, and DTH, North America is projected to hold the largest transponder market share. Nevertheless, substantial growth will be seen as a result of increasing demand for direct-to-home (DTH) satellite TV, high-definition (HD) to replace standard definition (SD) offerings, the need for stable military and defense communications, and the region's vibrant broadcast market.
