The satellite antenna market is expected to experience a significant growth rate of 15.1% from 2023 to 2032 owing to rise of in-flight, maritime and land mobile connectivity- Allied Market Research
It encompasses the various ground-based antenna technologies and terminals deployed for satellite communications across consumer broadband, enterprise networks, government, broadcast, aerospace, maritime and other verticals.
There is growth in demand for interoperable, hybrid antennas that can combine multiple frequency bands in one terminal. This enables smooth transition between different satellite networks and services for end users while reducing hardware requirements. Multi-band antennas provide an opportunity to address fragmentation resulting from proprietary, band-specific antenna deployments.
Moreover, advancements in software-defined and electronically tunable multi-band antennas have enhanced their adaptability to various communication environments. The need for versatile antennas in dynamic and multi-frequency communication settings has driven the growth.
Germany based companies have increased involvement in LEO broadband projects and R&D projects for development of advanced satellite antenna. For instance, in September 2023, mtex antenna technology a German antenna and telescope manufacturer expanded in Albuquerque and invested in technology and engineering. The company plans to open a new facility at a local science park, where it is expected to design, engineer, and produce high-tech antennas and telescopes for its North American customers. The expansion represents a $16 million investment and demonstrates the strengths of the city in aerospace and technology.
The satellite antenna market is segmented on the basis of antenna type, frequency, application and region. On the basis of antenna type, it is divided into parabolic reflector antenna, flat panel antenna, and others. On the basis of frequency, the market is classified into C/K/Ku/Ka band, S and L band, X band, VHF and UHF band, and others. On the basis of application, it is categorized into land, airborne, maritime, and space. On the basis of region, the market is analyzed across North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, and LAMEA.
North America remains the one of major regional satellite antenna market, driven by early adoption from government users and investments in consumer broadband services. The U.S. accounts for major market share, with high demand from defense and intelligence agencies deploying satellite communications for tactical needs.
Consumer broadband has also propelled antenna demand, as SpaceX Starlink scales users in the U.S. and Canada. SpaceX has expanded production for dish antennas to meet orders.
Moreover, apart from SpaceX there are other players such as Amazon, which adopted new antenna systems to increase market presence in the U.S. For instance, in March 2023, Amazon unveiled three satellite antennas in anticipation of competing with Starlink of SpaceX with its own Project Kuiper internet network. Amazon stated that it anticipates paying less than $400 per unit to produce the "standard" model of the satellite antenna, also referred to as a customer terminal.
Global satellite companies expanding the adoption of advanced antenna in Canada. For instance, in February 2022, Telesat, a global satellite communications company partnered with Cobham Limited, a terminal solutions provider, to equip its upcoming low-orbit satellite network. Cobham Limited is expected to supply tracking antennas and install them at landing stations globally. This enables the satellite operator to build out ground infrastructure for its next-gen broadband constellation. The companies intend to set up the initial 30 global landing stations in Canada.
The government of Mexico partnerships with companies such as Hughes and Viasat, Inc. have expanded satellite broadband and TV access for rural areas, creating a steady antenna sales opportunity. For instance, in February 2023, Viasat, Inc., a global satellite company, and a Mexican telecom company collaborated to provide internet access to 850 under connected communities across Mexico. The partnership is expected to use satellite technology to bring broadband to rural areas without reliable connectivity. This is anticipated to help more people get online and access key resources such as healthcare, education, and government services. Overall, the early-mover advantage in satellite services and consumer broadband growth make North America the regional market.
The key players profiled in the global satellite antenna market include Honeywell International Inc., Hughes Network Systems, LLC., Kymeta Corporation, L3Harris Technologies, Inc., Thales, Viasat, Inc., Airbus DS Government Solutions Inc., Cobham Limited, Gilat Satellite Networks Ltd, CPI International Inc., and Intellian Technologies, Inc.
