EMEA Market Trends

by Elisabeth Tweedie

Los Angeles, Calif.,  March 15-2024-In recent years the satellite industry has undergone a profound change–and one that is still continuing.  High Throughput Satellites (HTS) have been joined by Very- and Ultra-High Throughput Satellites (VHTS and UHTS), and more recently by software defined satellites.  Thousands of Non-Geostationary Orbit (NGSO) satellites are in operation.  At the same time, new applications are constantly emerging.  In-orbit Servicing (IoS) is a reality and Space Situational Awareness (SSA) is becoming a necessity, the Internet-of-Things (IoT) extends its reach on a daily basis.  The range of frequency bands in regular use is expanding.  L, C, Ku and Ka-bands are being joined by greater use of S, X and now V-band.  Space tourism is a reality and in the next few years there will be satellites orbiting the moon, as well as earth.
