Mobile Satellite Services Market

Market Definition

The global Mobile Satellite Services (MSS) Market is forecasted to grow at a rate of 5.8% from USD 4.06 Billion in 2019 to USD 7.55 Billion in 2030.

Mobile Satellite Services (MSS) are telecom services that provide two-way voice and data communications to the users located in remote areas with the help of satellite technology. In recent times, satellite communication systems have become significant part of telecommunication networks as they provide various advantages to users, including wide network coverage and uniform performance irrespective of the user location.

MSS systems are classified based on their orbital altitudes such as medium earth orbit (MEO), low earth orbit (LEO), and geostationary orbit (GEO). These systems are suitable in remote areas where wired networks are not available. MSS are also used in emergency conditions such as distress, natural disasters, war zones, and breakdown of communication due to several reasons.

Market Dynamics and Trends

The increase in demand for portability, advancement of digital technology and growing demand of mobility are some of the factors boosting mobile satellite services market growth. Also, features like efficient transmission of voice, data and video, along with tracking and monitoring services that are crucial for oil and gas, media, mining, military, aviation, and transportation verticals are the drivers for the market growth.

However, factors such as high cost, low available bandwidth and poor quality of data and voice in bad signal conditions are expected to restraint the growth of MSS market globally. On the contrary, development of internet of things (IoT), increased competition among ISPs along with introduction of highly accurate GPS systems, GNSS receivers, and sensors are anticipated to create lucrative opportunities and offer a considerable boost to the global MSS market expansion.
