[Research Report] The land mobile radio market size is expected to reach US$ 13.9 billion by 2030 from US$ 6.9 billion in 2022, with an estimated CAGR of 9.0% from 2022 to 2030.

Analyst Perspective:

Increased move toward digital technology from analog propels the adoption of land mobile radio systems. This technological shift aids in improving spectral efficiency and taking advantage of both voice and data. Demand for clear, reliable communication across the service areas and customized and cost-effective communications with integrated data communications bolsters the land mobile radios market growth. North America was the largest market for LMR in 2022, and APAC is projected to register the highest CAGR during the forecast period. Based on application, the public safety & government segment is expected to hold the largest share of the LMR market in the coming years.

Land Mobile Radio Market Overview:

Land mobile radio systems are stationary or portable voice communication systems comprising of two-way radio transceivers with an audio transmitter and receiver. These systems are available for public safety organizations such as fire brigades and ambulances, law enforcement agencies (LEAs) such as police and state troopers, and other governmental bodies. They are assigned frequencies exclusively for their use. Commercial land mobile radio systems are available for business, industrial, and land transportation businesses, but most frequencies are shared with other users. Since the antennas used at very high frequency (VHF) or ultra-high frequency (UHF) bands are suitable for mounting on vehicles or handheld transceivers, land mobile radio systems use short wavelength channels. Transmitter power is usually limited to a few watts, providing a reliable working range of 4 to 32 km depending on terrain. Repeaters installed on mountain peaks, hills, or tall buildings can increase the coverage area.

Land Mobile Radio Market Driver:

Rising Importance of Effective Critical Communication Operations Propels Land Mobile Radio Market Growth

Effective communication is critical for public safety responders who must keep connected with one another at the control center while also acquiring situational information in real time when reacting to situations. To tackle critical communication operations, there are increasing advancements in LMR technology. Land mobile radio technology has evolved over time from traditional analog voice service (such as two-way communications) to complex systems with trunking and digital capabilities that enable features such as group calling, rapid voice call setup, high-quality audio, and guaranteed priority access to the end user. With an increase in crime, terrorism, and natural disasters, industries are required to adopt new technologies to enable rapid and effective real-time reactions. TETRA, one of the most widely used land mobile radio standard, has evolved and now it offers high spectrum efficiency and operates on a standardized spectrum. It also includes exceptional vital communication characteristics such as security, a rapid call start-up time, a feature set for voice calls, and high-speed data services. It is used in present and new market areas such as public safety and commercial applications. With increasing security threats and demands for greater efficiency, cross-agency coordination, and better information sharing, the development of efficient public safety communications networks has emerged as a top priority for organizations, thereby driving the global land mobile radio market growth.

Based on technology, the land mobile radio market is bifurcated into analog and digital. Digital mobile radios provide a low-complexity digital standard to replace analog radio. Digital radios operate in digital mode using binary numbers to transmit voice digitally. This helps transmit a much clearer sound. The market for the digital segment is further segmented into TETRA, DMR, P25, and others (NXDN, dPMR, MPT1327 etc). TETRA is a mature technology and is a widely accepted standard of digital radio for critical communications. It is an open radio standard where the focus is on meeting the precarious communications needs of security agencies and public safety. DMR permits analog and digital FM operation, which delivers a smoother transition to a more modern digital system from a legacy analog system that increases spectrum efficiency and delivers a greater feature set. P25 provides lower maintenance, operating costs, and sophisticated features that are easily accessible to meet varying requirements over time. P25 also offers the freedom to choose between numerous vendors for dispatch consoles, subscriber radios, or other network devices.
