A Voice Communication Control System (VCCS) is an electronic system that allows and controls voice communication between air traffic control operators on the ground and the pilot. A computer controls this system and delivers effective communication that improves air traffic management operations. The VCCS is also known as a Voice Communication System (VCS) or Voice Communication Switching System (VCSS). This system consists of operation controller units and radio and telephone switching units.


The voice communication control system is also equipped with a user-friendly human-machine interface, allowing phone calls and radio recordings. This innovative system plays a crucial role in the air traffic management (ATM) operation. Besides, it is also used in several other applications such as vessel traffic control, coast guard, strategic emergency services, bridges and locks, offshore/wind farms, and airport ground services.


COVID-19 IMPACT


Decreased Air Traffic and Disruption in Supply Chain to Hinder Short Term Growth amid COVID-19 Pandemic


The coronavirus outbreak has introduced unprecedented changes to the commercial aviation industry. Temporary termination in commercial aviation operations has resulted in a reduction in air traffic levels. Airline operators are under high pressure as the commercial airport revenue generation is directly related to air traffic levels. Thus, airline operators have stopped the training of air traffic controllers. This has decreased the demand for voice communication control system. This impact is limited to the commercial VCCS market and expects to be overcome soon as the demand for strategic emergency services increases.



  • According to IATA World Air Transport Statistics (WATS) publication, the worldwide passenger air traffic was 1.8 billion in 2020, a decrease of 60.2% compared to the 4.5 billion who flew in 2019.

  • The COVID-19 pandemic led to decline of industry-wide air travel demand (measured in revenue passenger-kilometers, or RPKs) by 65.9% year-on-year with net losses of net losses were USD 126.4 billion in total.


Military operations are expected to support the market growth. Moreover, to overcome the impact of COVID-19, airline operators are focusing on integrating an advanced net-centric voice communication system to reduce dependency on traditional point-to-point communication and also help to reduce the overall operation cost. 


LATEST TRENDS

Transition from Analog to Digital VoIP to Boost Market Growth


Advanced digital voice communication technologies are replacing the conventional analog voice communication control system. The VoIP-based VCS has enabled secure voice and data transmission over IP (Internet Protocol) networks. The VoIP VCCS can handle the ground to ground and ground to air communications of the controllers in ATM operation. This system is designed by considering the international system design standards, for example, ED-137B. The VoIP ED-137B compliant digital VCCS enables interoperable communication between the air traffic control operator and the pilot.


Moreover, the growing adoption of digital radios and mobile phones to transmit voice in the form of data packets has improved voice communication capabilities and allowed storing voice data on the processing system. Furthermore, digital voice technology offers several advantages over analog voice technology such as a wide distance calling range, low-cost calling, improved voice quality, and voice data sharing and storing. These factors are increasing the usage of digital voice communication control system technology.


DRIVING FACTORS


Growing Need for Interoperable Voice Communication is Anticipated to Drive Market Growth


Growing technological innovation led to increased adoption of next-generation voice communication control systems. The implementation of VoIP in Air Traffic Management (ATM) operation requires standard certification such as ED-136, ED-137, ED-138, and ED-137B. ATM communication components based on VoIP technology are designed following these standards. The minimum requirements of the VoIP technology-based system are defined by the European Organization for Civil Aviation Equipment (EUROCAE). This group comprises multiple recognized bodies positioned across the world. The ED-137B standard enables interoperable voice communication.


Continuous voice communication is crucial in commercial and military ATM operations as it acts as the lifeline between pilots and air traffic controllers. Thus, the adoption of VoIP VCCS is rising to enable interoperable air traffic management communication. Moreover, the large air traffic needed more efficient ATM operation. Therefore, investments are increased in ATM infrastructure modernization programs. Rising investments are boosting the development of ED-137B certified VCCS systems to fulfill the demand from air navigation service providers and ATC service providers. 


Rising Number of New Airport Projects in Developing Nations to Boost Market Growth


A growing number of air passengers worldwide has escalated the demand for commercial aircraft deliveries and the construction of new airports. Owing to high population, India and China have observed high growth in air traffic compared to other countries. For instance, in 2020, the Indian government announced increasing the number of airports in the region to expand global and regional connectivity. They proposed to construct 100 new airports in-country by 2024. This factor has led to an increase in the development of advanced ATM infrastructure. Upgraded ATM infrastructures will provide efficient and seamless air traffic control operations.


Moreover, the growing modernization of domestic and international airports and air traffic control towers across the world has increased the demand for next-generation voice communication tools. These factors are driving the voice communication control system market growth during the forecast period.


RESTRAINING FACTORS


Stringent Airport System Design Standards and Safety Norms to Impede Market Growth


The stringent VoIP voice communication system design standards and airport & aircraft safety regulations are expected to hamper the market growth during the forecast period. Design standards to develop the VoIP VCS solution used in ATM applications are defined by the European organization for civil aviation equipment (EUROCAE) Working Group 67. This group has involved several other organizations such as the U.S. FAA (Federal Aviation Administration), European ANSPs (Air Navigation Service Providers), ATM communication equipment suppliers, and EUROCONTROL. For instance, in 2009, EUROCAE WG-67 released three new specifications, including ED-136 to ED-138. In 2012, the group released the ED-137B standard. This standard is referred to as an international standard by the international civil aviation organization (ICAO).


Therefore, these product design requirements are known as global standards for ATMs' voice-over-internet protocol protocol-based systems. Only the ED standard certified VoIP VCS products are used to achieve interoperable air traffic control communication. Stringent airport regulations for ATC towers are expected to hinder the market growth.


SEGMENTATION


By Solution Analysis


Hardware Solution Segment Held Dominant Share in Market in 2021


Based on solution, the market is segmented into hardware, software, and services.


The hardware segment is expected to witness the highest market share in the base year. The substantial rise in demand for advanced hardware components such as antennas, digital switches, consoles, and connectors is the major factor responsible for segment growth during the forecast period. In addition, increasing development of multi remote air traffic control towers is driving the segment growth. The ATC remote tower needed advanced voice communication technology, types of equipment, and highly skilled controllers to perform better operations.


Therefore, the growing development of the ATC tower is expected to surge the demand for hardware voice communication systems. For instance, in 2019, Frequentis AG collaborated with Deutsche Flugsicherung (DFS) for the new remote tower project. In May 2020, Frequentis AG signed a contract with ENAIRE, a Spanish air navigation service provider, to deliver VCS for nine different ATC towers.


On the other hand, the services segment is anticipated to grow at the highest CAGR during the forecast period. This growth is attributable to the growing demand for voice communication services in developing economies. The key players in this market offer Voice Communication Services (VCS) that help with traffic optimization and guide customers through a constantly evolving industry landscape.


By Platform Analysis


Growing Usage of VCCS in Air Traffic Control Application is Propelling Market Growth
