High-throughput Satellite Market Trends:

Adoption of IoT Devices

The adoption of Internet of Things (IoT) technologies is a significant driver of growth in the high-throughput satellite (HTS) market. For instance, according to Statista, the number of Internet of Things (IoT) devices globally is expected to nearly double, from 15.9 billion in 2023 to more than 32.1 billion by 2030. IoT devices generate vast amounts of data, which needs to be transmitted and processed. HTS provides the high bandwidth required to handle this data volume efficiently. These factors are expected to propel the high-throughput satellite market in the coming years.

Emergence of 5G Network

The emergence of 5G networks is one of the key factors driving the growth in the high-throughput satellite (HTS) market. For instance, according to Statista, there were a projected 1.9 billion fifth generation (5G) subscriptions worldwide in 2023, with the total expected to rise to 8 billion by 2028. By 2030, 5G connections are expected to make up 95% of all mobile connections in South Korea, Canada, and the United States. 5G networks require a robust and reliable backhaul infrastructure. HTS can provide a high-speed, reliable connection that complements terrestrial networks, especially in remote or underserved areas. These factors are further positively influencing the high-throughput satellite market forecast.

Technological Advancements

Innovations in satellite technology, such as more efficient transponders, higher frequency bands (like Ka-band), and advanced payload designs, are enhancing the capabilities of HTS. These improvements enable greater data throughput and more efficient use of satellite resources. For instance, the Airbus-built MEASAT-3d telecommunications satellite was launched on an Ariane 5 in June 2022. This new satellite improved broadband rates of up to 100 Mbps in places with weak or no terrestrial access throughout Malaysia, while also providing redundancy and more capacity for video distribution in HD, 4K, and eventually 8K throughout the Asia-Pacific region, thereby boosting the high-throughput satellite market revenue.
