An underwater location beacon (ULB), also called an underwater acoustic beacon, is a device that is integrated into flight recorders of aircraft avionics. In some cases, the ULB is also attached to the fuselage of aircraft. Its primary function is to emit ultrasonic signals when the aircraft unexpectedly crashes into a water body. There are two different and independent units of data recorders for an aircraft. The flight data recorder (FDR) captures various parameters of flight such as heading, altitude, and position of elevators and rudders.

The global commercial aircraft underwater location beacon (ULB) market has identified the rise in procurement of new generation aircrafts as one of the major factors that will have a positive impact on this market’s growth till 2021. The rise in air traffic levels due to the increase in air travel in countries such as China, India, Indonesia, Russia, and the US has propelled the demand for new aircrafts. The increase in passenger traffic has also resulted in the growing requirement for procuring technologically enhanced aircrafts that can be used for both short-haul and long-haul operations. These new aircrafts will also be operating in maritime routes and this increases the need for the integration of advanced tracking and safety systems. Owing to the introduction of several regulations for safety systems in airplanes, these aircrafts will also be integrated with new generation ULBs to comply with these aviation regulations. This will lead to the growth of the commercial aircraft ULBs market, which according to our market research analysts will grow at a CAGR of more than 6.1% by 2021.
Beacons with integrated pressure sensors will be one of the major trends gaining traction in the commercial aircraft ULB market during the coming years. The integration of pressure sensors in ULBs will improve battery performance. Moreover, the integration of pressure sensors also improves the operational time of the aircraft and improves the aircraft’s operational safety.
