Attitude and Heading Reference System Market Size
Attitude and Heading Reference System Market size valued at over USD 330 million in 2018 and is estimated to exhibit around 4.5% CAGR from 2019 to 2025.
Growing importance of precision navigation, sensitivity, and reliability in the general aviation industry is driving the attitude and heading reference system (AHRS) market growth. AHRS is widely used in business jets, turboprops, and piston-powered aircraft due to its small form factor, low weight, and self-correcting capability. Owing to its compact size, AHRS easily fits in the Electronic Flight Instrument System (EFIS) in the cockpit, thus reducing the overall weight of the aircraft. In addition, AHRS combined with external sources such as GPS and air data computer had significantly expanded its range of applications in military and Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) sector.

Development of advanced technologies including micro-electromechanical systems (MEMS) that offer cost-effective solutions to OEMs will boost market penetration. These systems enable OEMs to replace traditional gyro-based systems with higher performance and lightweight MEMS. Additionally, advancements in digital signal processors are further enhancing the accuracy of AHRS by overcoming the temperature sensitive drifts and rotation errors, thus stimulating the attitude and heading reference system market demand.
Increasing adoption of multiple rate gyros to measure angular aircraft motion coupled with advanced accelerometers to measure aircraft linear motion will boost market penetration. The enhanced functionality of these products enables flight operators to reduce the line replaceable units (LRU), wiring, weight and power requirement, supporting the industry growth over the study timeframe. For instance, in May 2018, AIEC Switzerland initiated a program to install the Universal Avionics (UA) AHS-525 AHRS on two Learjet 35 aircraft, thereby providing a positive outlook for the attitude and heading reference system market share till 2025.
Lower accuracy of the system owing to increasing sensor noise and drift may restrict the attitude and heading reference system market growth over the study timeframe. Additionally, interferences caused to the accelerometers owing to vibration and other factors including gravity, noise, and other external forces may further limit the business reach till 2025. However, industry players are introducing innovative light weight and improved reliable solutions for developing such systems.
