Satellite Communications Innovation & Technologies Coverage Areas
ABI Research’s Satellite Communications Innovation & Technologies Service takes a rigorous approach to evaluating the satellite service provider, the satellite constellations, and satellite ground equipment marketplace. Low Earth Orbit (LEO) satellite providers have been in operation since the early 2000s, but the latest innovations in payload launch systems, satellite manufacturing, and ground terminal solutions have transformed the cost equation of delivering satellite communications services to enterprises and even to consumers. In addition to comparative analyses of the relative merits of LEOs, Middle Earth Orbit (MEOs), and Geostationary (GEOs) satellite platforms, ABI Research investigates the equipment markets as well as the use case applications for mining, media and entertainment, utilities, aviation, resources, and processing and community communications.
