Technological advancement of flat panel antennas (FPA), which promises simpler, more reliable multi-satellite solutions with enhanced mobility and connectivity, is a breakthrough for companies operating in the telecom segment. Besides, the pay-per-use business model of satellite-as-a-service, along with fast growth in cloud and deep learning algorithms for improved downlink data transmission efficiency, will further grow the market during the forecast period.

Market Snapshot

Satellite-aided Broadband Connectivity to Ensure Dominance of Satellite Communication in Application Segment

Based on application, earth observation small satellites captured over 40% of the share in 2018. However, the announcement of a satellite constellation in lower earth orbit (LEO) for global data and internet connectivity which are targeting businesses in IoT and communication, is expected to register the highest CAGR during the forecast period. Furthermore, projects such as Starlink, Kuiper, and Eutelsat’s ELO IoT network are further expected to drive the market in the coming decade.

The Asia Pacific is expected to register the highest Market Share.

Currently, Asia Pacific is trailing behind North America and Europe. However, the small satellite market in the region has high potential. The market is majorly driven by China, Japan, and India. Nearly half of the demand for small satellites is from government missions for civilian use. The other half of the market share is commercial use for earth observation and satellite communication. With the entry of major players in the market, such as ISRO and JAXA, and with space ambitions of emerging economies of Asia Pacific, the region is expected to be leading during the forecast period. Moreover, Asian universities such as NTU Singapore are partnering with Japan’s Kyutech to build and launch their small satellites into orbit. Also, India’s StudSat and China’s BNU-1, built by respective national universities, have further increased the aspiration of Asia Pacific to grab the major share of the small satellite market.

New Technological Development is Keeping the Market Competitive

Major players profiled in the small satellite market include Space Exploration Technologies Corp., ISRO, Blue Origin, Boeing, OneWeb, AirBus S.A.S., Sierra Nevada Corporation, Planet Labs Inc., Lockheed Martin Corporation, Arianespace, and Thales Group. These companies are adopting strategies such as acquiring small players in the market and new technology in launching. For instance, in August 2018, Boeing announced the acquisition of Millennium Space Systems, a provider of small satellite solutions. With this acquisition, Boeing has increased its capability with its portfolio and provided the customer with advanced small satellite technologies. Furthermore, in March 2019, Lockheed Martin Corporation announced its new technology for launching small satellites, which will allow small satellites to change their mission in orbit. Named “SmartSat,” this software-defined satellite architecture will provide resiliency and flexibility per mission needs and technology with higher processing power in space.
