Report Description


VSAT (Very Small Aperture Terminal) Market Outlook 2031

The global VSAT (Very Small Aperture Terminal) market size was USD 7.4 Bn in 2022 and is likely to reach USD 29.94 Bn by 2031, expanding at a CAGR of 16.8 % during 2023–2031. Increasing demand for broadcasting and internet connectivity from remote locations is expected to drive the market.

Increasing demand for satellite services and rapid growth in internet usage are expected to drive the VSAT (Very Small Aperture Terminal) market during the forecast period. Remote locations, such as various offshore and onshore places, require internet connectivity to run smooth operations. This significantly affects the market, as the VSAT network offers consistent broadband access, even in locations that do not have wired networks. Furthermore, the growing adoption of wide area networks (WAN) for high-quality media broadcasts and trading is expected to drive the market during the forecast period. For instance,

  • According to the data published on March 2, 2020, software-defined WAN networks are being widely adopted, owing to their efficiency in cloud computing and trading networks.

Very Small Aperture Terminal Market Outlook

VSATs are small earth stations that provide satellite services by receiving and transmitting data. This data is exchanged with the satellite, which is further delivered to the end-user. They usually use 6/4 GHz, 14/11-12 GHz, and 30/20 GHz frequency bandwidths for data transfer. VSATs are majorly used by industries that operate remotely, such as oil & gas, maritime, offshore, onshore, and defense. It helps organizations to operate without relying on any communication network used by the masses. This ensures that the sensitive information transmitted is safe and is received by the desired party. Hence, the major applications of VSATs lie in military communications.

The COVID-19 pandemic hindered the market, due to the sudden halt in end-user industries and their operations. The COVID-19 restrictions were issued worldwide, by various governments. This created huge losses in revenue, for the players in the market. After the COVID-19 restrictions were gradually lifted worldwide, the market gradually stabilized, as businesses resumed their operations.

Impact of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in VSAT (Very Small Aperture Terminal) Market

The use of artificial intelligence is likely to provide substantial propulsion to the VSAT (Very Small Aperture Terminal) market. AI is capable of optimizing the process of huge data transmissions and predicting potential system failure. It helps analyze the patterns of the audio and video data received and sort it before transmitting it to the satellite or earth station. The data sortation is precise, based on the analysis run by algorithm input, which helps establish automation. Rising demand for AI to automate the workflow and to minimize human errors is expected to drive the market in the coming years.

VSAT (Very Small Aperture Terminal) Market Dynamics

Very Small Aperture Terminal Market Dynamics

Major Drivers

Increasing demand from the military and defense sectors drives the market. The defense ministries of various countries are constantly focused on strengthening their military power. They deal with various activities, such as conducting rescue operations from locations affected by natural disasters and remote areas. They also conduct several missions and training drills in the enemy territories.

Existing Restraints

Latency issues of VSAT systems hamper the market. VSAT systems transmit and receive signals from small-sized earth stations. A part of the system located in the geosynchronous orbit is subject to latency issues and takes time to transmit data to the satellite dish, which is likely to hamper the market during the forecast period.

Emerging Opportunities

Studies to improve the quality of real-time VSAT applications are anticipated to create lucrative opportunities for market growth. VSAT is subject to poor latency issues, due to the lag in data transmission. Improving its capacity for high-quality media transmission is expected to create opportunities for live-streaming applications, which is anticipated to provide substantial growth opportunities for the market.

VSAT (Very Small Aperture Terminal) Market Segment Insights

Type Segment Analysis

Based on type, the global market is segregated into standard VSAT and USAT (Ultra-small aperture satellite). The standard VSAT segment is projected to expand at a high CAGR during the forecast period, owing to its wide applications in the maritime industry. The maritime industry conducts immense offshore tasks where satellite communication is crucial to ensure workflow efficiency and safety. Standard VSATs play a major role as maritime satellite equipment to provide high-speed reliable connectivity to ships and yachts, which, in turn, drives the segment.

Very Small Aperture Terminal Market Type

Platform Segment Analysis

Based on platform, the VSAT (Very Small Aperture Terminal) market is divided into maritime, land, and airborne. The land segment is projected to hold a major share of the market during the projection period, due to the growing demand for high-speed connectivity and media transfer. The VSAT land platform eliminates structural issues from data transmission. They are used mainly as a replacement for large physical networks considering their small size. VSATs are easier to operate when compared to the local telecommunication networks. The increasing demand for independent communication networks drives the segment.

End-user Segment Analysis

Based on end-user, the VSAT market is segmented into broadband, broadcast, and voice. The broadband segment is expected to hold a key market share during the forecast period, owing to the increasing adoption of the internet for speedy connectivity. Various businesses have started operating from remote or virtual workspaces. After the COVID-19 pandemic, people prefer to opt for distance learning settings for education, which is expected to drive the segment in the coming years. For instance,

  • According to the report published by UNESCO on April 20, 2023, about 826 million students were using virtual education during and post-pandemic period.
