The global communication-based train control system market size is expected to reach USD 9.14 billion by 2032, according to a new study by Polaris Market Research. The report "Communication Based Train Control System Market Share, Size, Trends, Industry Analysis Report, By Train Type (Metros and High-Speed Trains); By Type; By Automation Grade; By Region; Segment Forecast, 2023 - 2032" gives a detailed insight into current market dynamics and provides analysis on future market growth.
The capabilities of these systems to assist the continuously surging burden and pressure on train-based transportation by allowing a greater number of trains to operate on the same track while boosting their efficiency and focus of due to technology businesses to develop more advanced and precise features catering to market need are the prominent factors driving the market growth. The rising penetration for retrofitting conventional signaling systems with CBTC technology as a cost-effective approach for enhancing railway operations without any extensive modifications is also expected to create market growth potential shortly.
For instance, in November 2022, Bharat Electronics announced that the company had signed an MoU with DMRC to develop an indigenous communication-based train control system, which will facilitate the several uncrewed operations of trains and metros.
The rapid growth in the technological evolution in the train signaling architecture mainly to provide the precise control of train movements by raising the data transmitted amount to the train coupled with the surging popularity of next-generation control technology to support the automatic driving modes and enhance the training throughput is gaining huge traction in the studied market across the world.
The rapid emergence of virtual balise as an innovative solution that replaces physical transponders used in conventional CBTC systems and utilizes train positioning data obtained from onboard sensors and wireless communication to create virtual balises that help eliminate the need for physical infrastructure reduces maintenance costs and provide greater flexibility in managing train control, creating new revenue opportunities for the market players.
