Frost & Sullivan published an insight into the implementation of ADS-B on a global basis. This insight provides a view of the progress of this major change to the air traffic management system. It discusses the decisions made, the number of installations, and the changes that these actions have caused.

Frost & Sullivan published a Market Engineering analysis on the civil helicopters market in October 2014. This research service provides an update on the market forecasts, especially in light of the changes that have occurred in market projections since the prices of oil and gas have fallen, which has altered demand for heavy and twin medium helico...

The study covers 3 different segmentscommercial, business, and general aviationacross the industry either as a primary application or as a secondary application. It provides the basic definitions, key drivers and restraints, and the challenges faced by the fuel cells market. The study also includes various prototypes as case studies, detailing c...

This market insight covers the small-satellite market from an Earth-imaging standpoint. It touches on the research and commercial versions of small-satellite technology. Other domains such as in-orbit debris mitigation and satellite-based internet services have also been covered. The study attempts to identify the differentiating factors and succes...

During the last decade, APAC has been the most dynamic region with regard to air traffic. As a result, the region has witnessed the highest aircraft demand globally and a strong development of new infrastructure to cope with increasing traffic. The countries in this region realise that investment in this industrial sector is profitable. Thus, they ...

In the typical aircraft environmental control systems (ECS), the bleed air is cooled by air from the aircraft slipstream and then enters a compressor, which boosts the turbine inlet pressure to increase the temperature drop. Air leaving the compressor is cooled to eliminate the excess moisture before entering the turbine. Cold air from the turbine ...

The reports of the death of global distribution systems (GDS) have been greatly exaggerated. Several industry analysts believed that GDS would not last long and that airlines would eventually shy away from them. However, the expansion of technologies and the realization of how valuable consumer data can be have given new life to GDS. The enclosed i...

After highlighting additive manufacturing (AM) as one of the most important technological trends in aerospace and defence, Frost and Sullivan attended the Additive Manufacturing for Defence and Aerospace summit in London in February 2015. The first conclusion arrived at based on the summit is additive manufacturing is drawing a lot of attention. In...

This research covers a brief analysis of key space technology trends and their implications on the future. Space-based technologies have become the backbone of our daily lives, many times without our realising it. Stakeholders across industries are exploring opportunities in and with space-based technologies, from providing broadband to the other 3...
