According to Stratistics MRC, the Global Fixed Satellite Services Market is accounted for $23.9 billion in 2022 and is expected to reach $35.66 billion by 2028 growing at a CAGR of 6.9% during the forecast period. Fixed Satellite Services (FSS) is a radio-communication service between ground stations at a given position, which may be fixed to a particular area, which uses Very Small Aperture Terminal (VSAT) technology to provide high speed connections to its end users. It has helped the service providers reduce the time to market for new services and also improve the customer experience on a real-time basis. FSS systems provide services to numerous users simultaneously, they are strategically placed to cover a vast area and allow users to communicate while travelling, without losing signals. As a result, governments, military organizations, and small and large business firms across the globe use these systems.

According to Cisco, there will be 5.3 billion Internet users globally by 2023, which is about 66% of global population. High-speed Internet connectivity has become a necessity for communication on a global scale due to increasing popularity of smartphones and other Internet-based devices and rapid globalization.

Market Dynamics:

Driver:

Increasing numbers of households adopting DTH subscriptions and HDTV channels

As more people use smartphones, there is an increasing need for high-speed satellite Internet connectivity, which has led to a rise in the demand for Direct-to-Home (DTH) services and the number of customers. Over the past few years, there has been a significant increase in this demand. The demand for mobile internet and broadband services, which has risen along with the popularity of the internet, has directly led to a considerable growth in internet consumption. A further factor driving demand for fixed satellite systems is the gradual expansion of DTH service adoption over wired cable networks. Increased consumer spending on luxury goods and high-end services is a result of rising levels of discretionary income worldwide, a spike in demand for digital DTH services, and a driving need for fixed satellite service systems.

Restraint:

Requirement of high capital investment

Installing fixed satellite service is the significant expenditure required to buy pricey equipment and the requirement for several ground stations. Building the infrastructure for the ground-based satellite network that links these ground stations involves installation costs. The cost of constructing or placing permanent satellites into orbit is another factor. A single satellite launch is thought to cost anywhere from US$50 million to US$400 million. A space shuttle flight's launch also costs about $500 million. High launch, development, and maintenance costs for satellites could restrain the growth of the worldwide fixed satellite services market's revenues.

Opportunity:

A rise in military satellite communications expenditure

Satellite technologies are being adopted by the military and defense industries for use in remote sensing, communications, global positioning systems, and other applications. To secure communication for the U.S. military around the world, the U.S. Air Force, for instance, runs Military Strategic and Tactical Relay (MILSTAR) satellite communication systems. China launched the TJS (Tongxin Jishu Shiyan) 7 military satellite in August 2021. The Chinese military uses the TJS satellites to gather intelligence and offer early warning. Due to the widespread use of these satellite communications in many different applications, military satellite communications are seeing an increase in expenditure. Defense Science and Technology Laboratory (Dstl), for instance, awarded a contract of USD 11.91 million to In-Space Missions Ltd in August 2021 for the construction of the Titania satellite for use in military space communications.

Threat:

Competition from fiber-optic communication

The market for fixed satellite services is facing difficult obstacles as a result of the growing competition from alternative technologies including fiber-optic connection and Internet Protocol Television (IPTV). Satellite Internet service cannot compare to fiber-optic technology in terms of bandwidth, frequencies, or data transmission rate. In modern times, fiber optic cables, the majority of which are undersea, carry more than 99% of all communications between nations. With lengths ranging from 50 miles to 10,000 miles, there are currently more than 400 subsea cables in use. The amount of data that can be transmitted across these connections is enormous. During the projected period, market revenue growth is anticipated to be constrained by the rising use of fiber-optic communication.

Covid-19 Impact:

The COVID-19 has negatively affected the satellite launch services market. Lockdowns and isolation during pandemics has not only complicate the supply chain management, but slowed the rate of testing, development and launching of pre-determined satellite launches. This has led to delay of many mission offered by the launch service providers. But with the betterment of the situation across the globe the testing and development has catch the required phase, yet there is no denial that the satellite launch services market has suffered heavily due to COVID-19.

The Channel Broadcast segment is expected to be the largest during the forecast period

The channel broadcast category is anticipated to have a bigger revenue share over the forecast period than other service-type categories because to the rising demand for direct-to-home satellite broadcasting services. The increased propensity of consumers to subscribe to packaged packages that offer pay-TV and OTT media services with ultra-high picture quality is expected to propel this segment's revenue growth.

The Small and Medium Business (SMB) segment is expected to have the highest CAGR during the forecast period

Small and medium businesses (SMB) segment is anticipated to experience consistent revenue growth over the course of the projection period. Rising demand for high-speed Internet and widespread use of data communications in this market are anticipated to fuel sector revenue development. Additionally, fixed satellite services assist small and medium-sized firms in improving their business operations, boosting competitiveness, and developing new services, which could be a major contributor in this segment's revenue growth.

Region with largest share:

In the global market over the forecast period, North America is anticipated to have the greatest revenue share. Increased demand for bandwidth brought on by high-speed Internet services, rising adoption of satellite connectivity applications, and rising demand for control systems and real-time monitoring that can be facilitated by satellites are all anticipated to contribute to the market's expected revenue growth. Since 80% of Americans use the Internet, there is a huge demand for fixed satellite services in the country. Additionally, Ku-band deployment advancements that provide fixed satellite services to network users help the market for fixed satellite services develop in terms of revenue.

Region with highest CAGR:

The market in Europe is anticipated to rise steadily over the course of the forecast period as a result of an increase in broadband access demand brought on by the adoption of multiple devices per household and an increase in the use of vital corporate communication lines such trunking and backhauling. The U.K. is the second-largest market for fixed satellite service after Germany. The following Heinrich Hertz communications satellite from Germany, for instance, is being developed by OHB System and will be launched into geostationary orbit.
