Synthetic Aperture Radar Market by Frequency (Single [X, L, C, and Others] and Multiple), Platforms (Ground and Airborne [Spacecraft, Aircraft, and UAV]), Mode (Single [Scan SAR, Strip map, and Spotlight] and Multi), Applications (Commercial and Defense), and Regions (Asia Pacific, North America, Latin America, Europe, and Middle East & Africa) - Global Industry Analysis, Growth, Share, Size, Trends, and Forecast 2021 – 2028
The global synthetic aperture radar market size is estimated to register a high CAGR during the forecast period, 2021–2028. The growth of the market is attributed to benefits such as synthetic aperture radar operates at multiple frequencies, which enables to work in conditions for instance, without sunlight, bad weather and clear skies.
SAR captures high quality digital images of the forests, territories, snow-clad mountains, urban regions, and oceans, which is used to upgrade the old data to produce new maps. Furthermore, it provides a cost-effective solution for surveying large areas with precision and high accuracy. The high-quality images provide accurate data analysis, which can be used to create digital terrain models for land information. Such data can be used for applications such as biomass estimation, vegetation cover mapping, mineral exploration, and biological water monitoring for research purposes.
The amalgamation of SAR with the control, command, computers, communications, surveillance, intelligence, and C4ISR ecosystem is expected to gain traction. The defense agencies are mostly relied on separated systems and displays for gathering and analyzing data extracted from SAR. The amalgamation with C4ISR provides the operator with tools to analyze the data and help with planning. Synthetic aperture radar provides precisely captured surface features, accurate data, and topographical features of the terrain, thus resulting in high adoption by the government agencies for research motive.
Market Trends, Drivers, Restraints, and Opportunities
- SAR works at multiple frequencies, which enables enterprises to work in any situations which is a key factor driving the market.
- Increasing awareness about decision making for potential enemy threats and natural disasters are the factors expected to boost the market.
- SAR offers rigorously captured surface and accurate data features and topographical features thus resulting in high adoption by the government agencies for research study.
- High development cost included in the modification of the SAR, with government regulations on using bounded bandwidth are some of the factors that hamper the market growth.
- Favorable norms and support from the governments is expected to contribute to the market growth.

Market Segment Insights
The single segment account for a key market share
Based on frequency, the global synthetic aperture radar market is segmented as single, and multiple. The single segment is further sub-segmented into X, L, C, and others. The single segment accounts for a key share of the market due to the easy mechanism and its capability to control areas over specialized wavelengths; however, the multiple segment is anticipated to expand at a rapid pace during the forecast period owing to its high penetration capability.
The airborne segment is estimated to expand at a robust growth rate
Based on platforms, the market is fragmented into ground and airborne. The airborne segment is further sub-segmented into spacecraft, aircraft, and UAV The airborne segment is estimated to expand at a robust CAGR during the forecast period owing to its capability to scan and capture larger areas compared to ground-based SAR. Meanwhile, the ground segment is expected to observe steady growth rate due to their limited range of scanning areas.
The multimode segment is projected to expand at a substantial CAGR
In terms of mode, the global synthetic aperture radar market is divided into single and multi. The single segment is further divided into scans AR, strip map, and spotlight. The multimode segment is projected to expand at a considerable CAGR due to increased adoption of SAR operating with various modes to utilize each mode's characteristics. On the other hand, the single segment accounts for a key market share owing to easy mechanism and high affectivity.
The defense segment is attributed to register a high CAGR
In terms of applications, the market is bifurcated into commercial and defense. The defense segment is attributed to register a high CAGR owing to increasing activities such as spying, tracking & mapping enemy movements, and intelligence data collection. Moreover, the commercial segment exhibit a high growth rate owing to clear imaging of SAR has enlarged its adoption for commercial purposes to monitor urban areas.
North America is anticipated to dominate the market
In terms of regions, the global synthetic aperture radar market is classified as Asia Pacific, North America, Latin America, Europe, and Middle East & Africa. North America is estimated to hold major market share due to the large number of SAR manufacturers and rising military investments for updating current detection systems in the region. The market of Asia Pacific is expected to constitute major share of the market owing to rising demand for border security surveillance. China introduced an earth observation satellite called Gaofen-7, while NASA and India space research organization are working together to introduced NISAR, an earth observation satellite in 2022.
