VDES: The Next Generation of VHF Communication

VHF data exchange system (VDES) is a new maritime communication technology that is designed to improve safety, security, and efficiency. VDES is based on the VHF radio band, but it uses digital technology to transmit data-rich messages. This makes it possible to transmit more information over a wider area and at faster speeds than traditional VHF radio. VDES is a promising new technology that has the potential to revolutionize maritime communication. It is already being adopted by a number of countries and organizations, and it is expected to become increasingly widespread in the coming years. VDES can be used to transmit data-rich messages that can improve maritime safety and security. For example, VDES can be used to transmit information about the location of ships, weather conditions, and other hazards.

Segment Analysis:

The global VHF data exchange system (VDES) market is segmented into four notable segments, which are based on the component, communication system, usage type, and end user.

  • On the basis of component, the global VHF data exchange system (VDES) market is the segmented antenna, transceiver, ECDIS, and others. Transceiver is expected to dominate the global VHF data exchange system (VDES) market with a 45.03% share as the cost investment for this device was higher. A transceiver refers to a device that is capable of transmitting and receiving information via a transmission medium.
  • On the basis of the communication system, the global VHF data exchange system (VDES) market is segmented into shore-to-ship, ship-to-shore, satellite-to-ship, ship-to-satellite and ship-to-ship. Ship-to-shore is expected to dominate the global VHF data exchange system (VDES) market with a 35.69% share as VDES devices are primarily installed in ships in place of AIS to communicate with the onshore station smoothly. In ship-to-shore communication, vessels uphold consistent connectivity with offshore with the help of satellites and other equipment.
  • On the basis of usage type, the global VHF data exchange system (VDES) market is segmented into vessel traffic service (VTS) communication, search & rescue (SAR) communication, maritime safety information (MSI), ship reporting, route exchange, charts & publications, and logistics. Maritime safety information (MSI) is expected to dominate the global VHF data exchange system (VDES) market with a 30.95% share as VDES is widely primarily used for information about ships to onshore centers. This service allows the national authorities to broadcast important information to the mariners, such as upcoming storms or restricted areas.

The maritime safety information (MSI) segment will dominate the usage type segment of the VHF data exchange system (VDES) market

The maritime safety information (MSI) segment will emerge as the dominating segment under usage type segment. This is because of the growing number of technological advancements in the market especially in the developing economies. Further, growth and expansion of research development services on a global scale will further bolster the growth of this segment.

  • On the basis of end user, the global VHF data exchange system (VDES) market is segmented into shore, ships, and satellites. Ships is expected to dominate the global VHF data exchange system (VDES) market with a 52.19% share as companies are focusing on transforming the AIS of ships to VDES on a primary basis. VHF data exchange systems are an upgrade to the existing AIS, which can be used in ships capable of transforming maritime communication.

The ships segment will dominate the end user segment of the VHF data exchange system (VDES) market

The ships segment will emerge as the dominating segment under end user.
