Press Releases

The global satellite position, navigation, and timing (PNT) technology market are expected to grow at a 22.35% CAGR during 2025-2030. Satellite PNT technology calculates a specific geographical location or position, navigates a route, and tracks accurate time. Position, navigation, and timing (PNT) are some of the significant central elements of modern technology systems and devices. The global navigation satellite system (GNSS) onboards the communication satellite which is used to calculate position, navigation, and time. PNT consists of three diverse components i.e., positioning (ability to determine the geographical location of a person, object, or signal), navigation (ability to compute a route to the desired position from current position), and timing which combines navigation and positioning (ability to compute the duration of travel between locations and maintain accurate time according to time zone standards like UTC or Australian Central Standard Time). These three combined together create a powerful capability. Thus, PNT technology is important for commercial, government, and civil operations along with military and defense operations. Nevertheless, Government organizations and private firms in the global satellite position, navigation, and timing (PNT) technology industry are now engaged in research and development projects to provide secured position, navigation, and timing technologies.

The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) Blackjack programme has granted Northrop Grumman Corporation a $13.3 million contract for Phase 2 development of an advanced, software-defined positioning, navigation, and timing (PNT) payload, with options to build units destined for space flight, in September 2021.

By application, precision timing is anticipated to have a significant growth during the forecast period.

Precision timing is especially critical, and it is principally given by the Global Positioning System (GPS). Precise timing is critical to a wide range of economic activity all over the world. Precision timing is required for synchronization and operating efficiency in communication systems, electrical power grids, and financial networks. The free availability of GPS time has resulted in huge cost reductions for enterprises that rely on accurate time, as well as major gains in capability.
