U.S. cognitive radio market size, by component type, 2020 - 2030, (USD Million)

Integrating cognitive radios with cloud computing and the internet of things (IoT) is expected to play a significant role in adopting cognitive radios. IoT devices have gained traction in the world of communication in recent years as the devices are being combined with the internet for operations. IoT devices are expected to collect or exchange data using limited resources, wherein spectrum utilization is one of the critical aspects. The cognitive radio plays a vital role in wireless communication as it uses the vacant part of the spectrum for a wireless communication system. The integration with cloud computing helps improve the performance of cognitive radio networks without affecting security, and the integration also enhances the accessibility of the platform.

The emergence of 5G technology is expected to play a crucial role in driving the global growth of the market for cognitive radio. The increasing adoption of mobile phones, advancements in wireless communication devices, and continuous surging data traffic, data traffic, and improved network performance in data capacity, energy utilization, bandwidth utilization, delay, throughput, and cost have led to the emergence of the 5G network.

Component Insights

The software segment is expected to witness a CAGR of nearly 20.0% over the forecast period. The growth can be attributed to the increasing adoption of software-based cognitive radios in defense and government organizations and the emergence of 5G as a software-based cognitive radio that provides a novel network resource management framework to overcome several challenges related to network resource management. For instance, In April 2022, Raytheon Missiles and Defense, a subsidiary of Raytheon Technologies Corporation, was awarded a contract of a total of USD 1.68 million across five years by the U.S. Navy. The contract is expected to develop further warfare capabilities and technology and introduce three Zumwalt-class destroyers.

The services segment is expected to witness significant growth over the forecasted period. The services such as managed and professional services are expected to witness increased demand, especially in the Asia Pacific region, owing to rapid urbanization and technological advancements in the region.

End-use Vertical Insights

The telecommunication segment is expected to witness the highest CAGR growth of more than 19.0% from 2022 to 2030. The segment's growth is majorly attributed to the emergence of 5G technology. The cognitive radio provides a favorable atmosphere to implement 5G technology as it meets the capacity demand of the spectrum of 5G wireless communication. The defense and government segment is expected to acquire nearly 34% of the market share by 2030 owing to the increased demand for the latest technologies in the defense and government sector.

In March 2021, Shared Spectrum Company and InterDigital, Inc. were given a contract to enable dynamic spectrum sharing between 5G cellular and Air Force radars at Utah's hill air force base. The contact has developed technologies to develop 5G-enabled dynamic spectrum sharing. The demand for cognitive radio is increasing in healthcare, logistics and transportation, and other sectors resulting in promising growth of the overall market for cognitive radio during the forecasted period.

Application Insights

The spectrum sensing segment is expected to expand at a CAGR of nearly 20.0% from 2022 to 2030. The growth is attributed to the application's key feature to prevent harmful interference with licensed users and improve spectrum utilization by identifying the available spectrum. The increased implementation in defense and government organizations and the further technological developments such as IoT integration are expected to enable more features resulting in wide adaptation of spectrum sensing for various applications. Furthermore, the application of spectrum sensing in power grid communication systems to fulfill the large-capacity data transmission needs and improve the quality of communication is expected to boost the growth of the market for cognitive radio.
