Mobile Satellite Communications Markets Survey, Prospects to 2020 is an expert analysis of the mobile satellite industry, assessing key trends and drivers in this market characterized by both a number of growth opportunities and challenges for key players. Satellite operators, service providers, investors, manufacturers & launchers, telecoms companies, space agencies and other actors use the exclusive ten-year forecasts in their business and investment planning and strategic decision-making.


The report provides a complete analysis of trends and prospects by segment, application and region: Strategic Issues & Forecasts - Current demand for MSS communications - Key trends & major applications - Ten-year forecasts (wholesale revenues & terminals) Operators & Value Chain - MSS operators: Financials, strategies & positioning - Value chain & distribution Applications - MSS broadband, M2M, handheld - Military & civilian government - Mobile VSAT Market Segments: Maritime, Land, Aeronautical, Government - Supply (including key players) - Business models, major trends, competition - Applications & devices, regulation - Key assumptions & forecasts to 2020 Regional Profiles (Five Regions) - Current situation & trends - Key regional players (operators & service providers) - Regulation - Trends & drivers by segment & application - Forecasts to 2020 Executive Summary: Mobile Satellite Communications Markets Survey, Prospects to 2020 Comprehensive expert analysis & forecasts for the MSS sector MSS wholesale revenue is expected to grow roughly 7% per year over the coming decade, due to increased demand for broadband and other MSS services in a number of vertical segments and emerging regions.

Annual growth in terminals is estimated to reach nearly 13% over the decade. A large part of this market growth to the continued shift from legacy voice services to data applications, in both high-speed broadband and low-speed messaging and asset tracking. Strong demand from commercial markets will boost the industry and more than offset a potential slowdown from government users for current military operations. Growth should also be supported by new products with enhanced capabilities, enabled in part by the launch of new MSS systems -- including Iridium NEXT and second-generation constellations from Globalstar and Orbcomm.

Nevertheless, competition from terrestrial technologies and VSAT services - which offer higher data rates and more attractive service pricing -- will remain a threat to MSS growth. Yet MSS operators are responding, such as leading MSS operator Inmarsat which announced plans to launch global Ka-band satellite service by 2014 (Global Xpress). This technology shift in the VSAT market should also have an impact on the MSS industry.
