Executive Summary

There are more than 2,000 satellites in orbit around the Earth. The need for satellite communication comes into use when there arises any requirement to send signals to far places, where the Earth’s curvature creates an obstruction. The hindrance is overcome by sending communication satellites to the Earth’s orbit, which helps in transmitting signals around the curvature. In addition, satellite communication offers connection in areas on the Earth that are not accessible through traditional or conventional communication networks. Therefore, the satellite communication technology is of utmost significance in providing uninterrupted service to all areas on the Earth.

Satellite communication technology is an essential form of communication in remote areas where there is an absence of wired or traditional networks. Real-time information and data, accurate global positioning services, and tracking and monitoring of fixed and movable assets are the key functions carried out by satellite communication systems, according to Pallab Roy, System Expert at Inmarsat.

However, the growth of the satellite communication technology market is limited by factors such as the high cost of manufacturing, delay in signals, and need for replacements. The cost of satellite communication technology includes the cost of satellite manufacturing, the launch of satellites through a space shuttle, and investments in a ground segment or base stations to manage and control a satellite. In addition to heavy expenditure, development and launch of satellites take years to complete and the deployment of satellites is totally dependent on the successful launch of space shuttles. In times of bad weather conditions such as storm and heavy rain, satellite connections may face interference or delay in receiving or sending signals. Moreover, standard satellites have a longevity of 12 to 15 years, which means that every satellite needs to be replaced before its lifespan is over.

The types of technology in satellite communication technology available in the market are satellite telemetry, automatic identification system, and very small aperture terminal. Currently, satellite telemetry technology in the satellite communication technology market is the most commonly used.

Geographically, the market is segmented into North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific and the Rest of the World. However, the Asia-Pacific region is expected to have the best market potential to increase. This growth potential is because emerging nations in this region are involved in heavy commercialization of satellite communication networks.
