Market Overview:
The global mobile satellite phone market is expected to grow at a CAGR of XX% during the forecast period from 2018 to 2030. The growth in this market can be attributed to the increasing demand for mobile satellite phones for defense, maritime, aviation, and energy applications. Additionally, the growing demand for mobile satellite phones in emerging economies is also contributing to the growth of this market. However, factors such as high cost and limited coverage are restraining the growth of this market. On the basis of type, the global mobile satellite phone market can be segmented into geosynchronous satellite telephone and low-earth orbit (LEO) satellite telephone. Geosynchronous satellites offer wider coverage as compared to LEO satellites; however, LEO satellites are more affordable than geosynchronous satellites. On account of these factors, LEO satellites are expected to witness higher growth during the forecast period as compared to geosynchronous satellites. Based on application,the global mobile satellite phone market can be divided into defense applications,, maritime applications,, aviation applications,, energy applications,, and other applications,.
Product Definition:
A mobile satellite phone is a type of cell phone that connects to satellites in orbit instead of terrestrial cell towers. This allows users to make calls from remote areas where there is no cellular service. Mobile satellite phones are often used by people who work or travel in rural areas, as well as emergency responders and disaster relief workers.
Geosynchronous Satellite Telephone:
Geosynchronous Satellite Telephone (GST) is a type of satellite phone that operates on the principle of geosynchronous orbit. It has been in service for more than two decades and was initially designed to cater to domestic or internal needs of companies located near the equator. Geosynchronous satellites are usually placed at an altitude of about 22,300 miles above the earth’s surface, which provides coverage over almost all parts of the globe.
Low-Earth Orbit Satellite Telephone:
Low-Earth Orbit Satellite (LEOSAT) telephone is a service provided by mobile satellite phone manufacturers using the LEO satellites. It enables users to make and receive calls internationally using relatively inexpensive radio frequency transmissions. The system uses the frequencies allocated for broadcast television services, such as UHF and VHF television bands, which are generally used for local area networks in residential areas and small businesses.
Application Insights:
The defense segment dominated the global mobile satellite phone market in 2017 and is expected to witness significant growth over the forecast period. The growing need for communication tools that offer enhanced flexibility, worldwide coverage, and high-speed data transfer capabilities is anticipated to drive demand from this sector. Moreover, governments are increasingly deploying these phones in military aircraft and ships as well as on land to provide communication services to soldiers fighting on battlefields or at sea.
The energy application segment accounted for a share of 10% in terms of revenue in 2017 owing to the growing need for reliable communications solutions among power grid operators across the globe. These companies require a satellite phone that can withstand harsh environmental conditions such as rainstorms, snowstorms, sand storms etc., which further drives product demand from this sector. Furthermore, increasing investments by oil & gas companies for exploration activities coupled with rising concerns regarding safety are likely fuel product demand from this application segment over the forecast period.
Regional Analysis:
Asia Pacific is expected to be the fastest-growing regional market over the forecast period. The growth can be attributed to increasing demand for satellite phones in countries such as India, China, and Japan. In addition, growing use of mobile phones along with their incorporation into aircrafts and ships are further boosting the growth in this region. Furthermore, rising number of subscribers using data services on board aircraft is driving the need for providing better connectivity through improved satellite networks across this region.
North America accounted for a significant share in 2016 owing to high adoption rates of geosynchronous satellites coupled with advanced telecommunication infrastructure present across U.S.
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand for mobile satellite phone services in the emergency and disaster relief sectors.
- Growing demand for mobile satellite phones from the maritime sector as a result of increasing trade and commerce activities across the world's oceans.
- Proliferation of low-cost, high-quality mobile satellite handsets that are easy to use and provide enhanced coverage globally.
- Rapid expansion of cellular networks into rural and remote areas, which is driving increased demand for mobile satellite phone services as a backup or alternative communications solution in these regions.
