New Private Entrants in Space Industry and Strong Backing from Government for Space Commercialization to grow Small Satellite Market

 

Advancement in space and technological fields have propelled the satellite manufacturing companies to develop more compact and efficient satellites. With growing application of small satellites in earth observation, IoT and remote sensing or communication has disrupted the space economy for better. With number of connected devices expected to cross 22 Bn mark in coming years, space-based IoT is one of the promising business segments offered by small satellites.

 

Moreover, new initiatives from global universities & countries and with emergence of entrepreneurs who realized the market potential of smallsats have further drives the global small satellite market in 2018. In addition, strong backing from investors like SoftBank, Virgin Group, Qualcomm, AirBus and Bharti Group who are trusting in the potential of small satellite business offers in the near future is expected to further influenced the market in near future.

 

Technological advancement of flat panel antennas (FPA) which promises simpler, more reliable multi-satellite solution with enhanced mobility and connectivity is major breakthrough for the companies operating in telecom segment. Besides, 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.

 

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

 

Based on application, earth observation small satellite captured over 40% of share in 2018. However, with the announcement of 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. Projects such as Starlink, Kuiper and EutelSat’s ELO IoT network is further expected to drive the market in coming decade.

 

Asia Pacific is expected to register the highest Market Share

 

Currently, Asia Pacific is trailing behind North America and Europe. However, small satellite market in region has high potential. The market is majorly driven by China, Japan and India. Nearly half of the demand for small satellite is from government missions for civilian use. Other half of the market share is from commercial use for earth observation and satellite communication. With the entering of major players in market such as ISRO, JAXA and with space ambitions of emerging economies of Asia Pacific, the region is expected to be leading during forecast period. Moreover, Asian universities such as NTU Singapore partnering with Japan’s Kyutech to build and launch their small satellites into orbit. Also, India’s StudSat and China’s BNU-1 are built by respective national universities have further increases 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 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 provide customer with advanced small satellite technologies. Furthermore, in March 2019, Lockheed Martin Corporation announced its new technology in launching of small satellites which will allow small satellites to change their mission in orbit. Named as “SmartSat”, this software defined satellite architecture will provide resiliency and flexibility as per mission needs and technology with higher processing power in space.
