DUBLIN, Nov. 6, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- The "Global Cellular-Connected Drone Market: Focus on Drone Type, Components, Applications, and End User - Analysis & Forecast, 2023-2030" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

The global cellular-connected drone market is expected to generate $592.1 million in 2023 and is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 13.58%, during 2023-2030.

The global cellular-connected drone market is expected to witness static growth during the forecast period 2023-2030, due to the rising adoption of 5G and the need for a real-time positioning system.

Cellular connected drones use the cellular network for positioning, navigation, and communication of drones. Use of cellular networks to operate a drone is a key enabler to rolling out Beyond Visual Line of Sight (BVLOS) operations at a wider scale while keeping operating costs low, using the existing network infrastructure. Cellular operated drones provide real-time situational analysis and when combined with innovative technologies such as computer vision, artificial intelligence, and IoT, it opens a new gateway for the development of completely automated drone solutions.

Asia-Pacific is expected to dominate the global market in 2019, with China acquiring the most significant market share, globally. Also, Asia-Pacific and North America are expected to have higher growth rate compared to other regions during the forecast period, 2023-2030.
