Rising Demand for Laser-Based Satellite Communications Fuels Asia Pacific Satellite Optical Ground Station Market
In laser-based satellite communication, lasers can be used to send information to and from Earth. These invisible beams can traverse the skies, sending terabytes of data, pictures, and videos to expand the knowledge regarding the universe. Also, laser transmissions are hard to intercept and jam; hence, they play a very important role in military communication networks. For instance, they can help send and receive more information in a single transmission than traditional radio waves.
As laser-based satellite communication helps transfer data at a fast speed, governments of various countries are adopting the technology. In addition, the contract will support the development of GEO-to-LEO optical uplinks and downlinks, positioning and timing accuracy over optical communication links, space-to-ground links, and interoperability with multiple optical communications standards. Furthermore, various companies are using laser technology to develop advanced optical communication solutions for their customers. Thus, the rising demand for laser-based satellite communication to transfer data faster will propel the growth of the satellite optical ground station market during the forecast period.
Asia Pacific Satellite Optical Ground Station Market Overview
The expanding space development initiatives in Asia Pacific are creating a profound shift in the understanding of the cosmos, boosting national security, and offering vital information, goods, and services that further support innovation. The growing space development activities by the collaborative efforts of different countries, such as China, India, Japan, and South Korea are catalyzing the demand for space situational awareness, which is subsequently propelling the market growth in the region. One of the world's largest space projects is run by China. It either conducts the most or the second most orbital launches each year.
Several Asian nations, including Japan, South Korea, and Taiwan, are enhancing their capacities to lessen their reliance on the US. Japan, in close cooperation with NASA and ESA, is working on space exploration. Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA), which is an integral part of the International Space Station, is closely working on the Artemis moon program. The country has also found its own niche in the cutting-edge missions to asteroids. Similarly, South Korea is working on enhancing its space sector. In June 2022, South Korea announced its first successful satellite launch using its domestically developed rocket. Through this, the county will be able to grow its aerospace ambitions and demonstrate the critical technologies needed to build larger missiles and launch spy satellites. In addition, huge sums of investments are being made in the space sector by several Asian countries. For instance, Taiwan announced its ambition to invest US$ 900 million to develop its space sector. This includes the launch of ~10 domestically made satellites by 2028 and also the development of a launch site. Such developments across the space sector of APAC region are catalzying the adoption of satellite ground station market across the region.
