Asia Pacific Satellite Communication Terminal Market Forecast to 2028 - COVID-19 Impact and Regional Analysis By Classification (C Band, X Band, S Band, Ku Band, and Ka Band) and Application (Military Use and Civil Use)
The APAC satellite communication terminal market is expected to grow from US$ 1,037.24 million in 2021 to US$ 1,802.11 million by 2028; it is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 8.2% from 2021 to 2028.
A portable satellite communication terminal, also known as a hotspot or satellite communicator, is one of the smallest 2-way SATCOM devices. Such satellite communication terminals use an internal GPS chip for gathering location information. When the SEND option is selected, the location information is sent via commercial satellites to a commercial monitoring agency. The role of the commercial monitoring agency is to forward the information to the respective responding agency. Further, the purchasers of portable satellite communication devices are involved in activities such as mountain biking, hiking, boating, climbing, and flying. Small SATCOM terminals are also helpful for individuals who have to work in remote areas, such as foresters, loggers, fishers, geologists, and wildlife staff. Enhanced features, including breadcrumb tracking via Google Earth and sending preprogrammed messages, are also offered via portable and small SATCOM terminals. Iridium started its Global Maritime Distress and Safety System service (GMDSS) in 2020. The launch of new GMDSS terminals facilitates access to a fleet of vessels is needed by maritime law to maintain the L-band safety service. The demand for portable and small SATCOM terminals is expected to grow in the coming years due to enhanced utility, thereby driving the APAC satellite communication terminal market growth.
The COVID-19 pandemic impacted the satellite communication industry severely in 2020. Key market players in the satellite communication terminal market experienced unprecedented challenges because of delays in satellite launches, production discontinuations, and the hold of various contracts. APAC experienced a slow production rate from original equipment manufacturers (OEMs), disruptions in the supply chain, and lesser procurement of contracts due to the pandemic. India and China are the two major countries that contribute to the growth of the satellite communication terminal market in APAC. The region is known to have well-established airports in various countries. Also, the growing number of airports plays a vital role in installing aviation satellite communication terminals. However, due to the COVID-19 pandemic, airport expansion projects in countries such as India were delayed, which resulted in a gradual growth of the satellite communication terminal market in the region. Moreover, Penang International Airport expansion project (Malaysia) and Singapore Changi Airport (Singapore) were discontinued due to the COVID-19 pandemic. All such aspects have decreased the demand for aviation satellite communication terminals. The government of India developed Arogya Setu, a mobile app, which provided relevant data regarding every geographic area to help citizens identify the risk of contracting COVID-19, and satellite communication terminals catered to such support services notably.
With new features and technologies, vendors attract new customers and expand their footprints in emerging markets, which will drive the APAC satellite communication terminal market growth.
