Description

The Asia Pacific Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) chip market is projected to grow significantly, reaching an estimated US$ 3,524.44 million by 2031, up from US$ 1,815.11 million in 2024. This growth represents a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 9.9% from 2024 to 2031.

Executive Summary and Market Analysis

The Asia Pacific GNSS chip market is divided into several key regions, including Australia, China, India, Japan, South Korea, and the Rest of Asia Pacific. Major consumer electronics manufacturers in the region are actively launching innovative chips and products that require real-time data for location tracking across various devices such as smartphones, tablets, and wearable technology. For example, in July 2023, Mobileye unveiled the first vision-only intelligent speed assist (ISA) solution for automakers, which was certified and tested across Europe. This camera-only solution, set to be implemented in production vehicles in 2024, helps automakers comply with new EU general safety regulations by automatically sensing speed limits without relying on third-party maps or GPS data.
In December 2023, Airoha Technology, known for its expertise in fixed broadband network infrastructure and advanced Artificial Intelligence of Things, launched the AG3335MA satellite positioning chip series. This series has passed the AEC-Q100 Grade 2 reliability qualification tests for automotive applications and has been integrated with MediaTek’s Dimensity Auto platform, offering highly integrated solutions and technical testing services to automotive manufacturers globally. Such product innovations are driving the demand for GNSS chips in the consumer electronics sector across the Asia Pacific region.

The Asia Pacific GNSS chip market can be segmented based on device type, application, and vertical.

1. Device Segmentation: The market is categorized into smartphones, tablets, personal navigation devices, in-vehicle systems, and others. In 2024, smartphones are expected to hold the largest market share.
2. Application Segmentation: The applications of GNSS chips include navigation and location-based services, mapping and surveying, telematics, timing and synchronization, among others. The navigation and location-based services segment is anticipated to dominate the market in 2024.
3. Vertical Segmentation: The market is also segmented by verticals such as consumer electronics, automotive and transportation, military and defense, marine, and others. The consumer electronics segment is projected to hold the largest share in 2024.

Market Outlook

Accurate real-time location data is essential for various applications, including ride-hailing services, delivery drones, and precise navigation. GNSS chips facilitate these applications by providing real-time positioning information. High accuracy in surveying operations can be achieved through advanced data processing software, integrated sensor systems, and high-end GNSS receivers that support multi-constellation and multi-frequency capabilities. Different GNSS surveying technologies offer varying levels of accuracy to meet diverse application needs. For instance, single point positioning (SPP) provides basic location data, while real-time kinematic (RTK) and post-processing kinematic (PPK) methods offer centimeter-level precision. The differential global positioning system (DGPS) enhances accuracy further, with RTK being the most precise due to its lower latency and real-time corrections.

The demand for GNSS chips is also driven by the introduction of new devices aimed at providing accurate positioning and heading information across various applications, including autonomous mining trucks, intelligent ports, and mapping autonomous buses. For instance, in May 2024, ComNav Technology launched the M100X GNSS receiver, designed with the Quantum-III SoC Chip to deliver full-constellation and multi-frequency capabilities, specifically for high-accuracy vehicular positioning and heading. Such innovations are expected to further stimulate demand for GNSS chips.

Country Insights
