Satellite Evolution Group: Software-defined satellite trend triggers US$86.9 billion revenue opportunity
NSR’s new report Software-Defined Satellites (SDS), launched today, sees growing satellite flexibility requirements trigger an US$86.9 billion cumulative revenue opportunity by decade’s end. Non-GEO- HTS constellation satellites will lead uptake with 95 percent demonstrating full or partial flexibility as software-defined platforms by 2030. However, operator hesitancy sees only 70 percent of GEO satellite orders to capture this trend in the medium term.
