Via Satellite: Examining the Changing Dynamics of Competition for Rapidly Evolving Satellite Constellations

Examining the Changing Dynamics for Satellite Constellations Established satellite operators, SES and Eutelsat, joined panelists from SpaceX, emerging constellation provider Mangata Networks and network orchestration player Aalyria, in a lively debate on the viability of constellations businesses, the state of competition, the merits of vertical integration and the role of cloud infrastructure in changing the.

On Demand: LEO Terminals – Pointing the Way Forward

ON DEMAND: If you missed NSR Research Director, Brad Grady in the GVF webinar LEO Terminals – Pointing the Way Forward – you can now watch it on demand. The dialogue began with a definition of a ‘LEO terminal’, including an exploration of the degree of integration of LEO terminal components and the more software-centric.

FPA’s Time to Cross the “Valley of Death”?

There is no secret that ‘times are hard’. Today is especially hard for early-stage pre-revenue technology ventures. The satellite communications sector has seen LEO constellations come into and out of viability as funding runs out. It should therefore be no surprise that one of their other ‘key enabling technologies’ Flat Panel Antenna (FPA) ventures are.

Consumer IoT in a Direct-To-Handset World

Consumer IoT has traditionally been one of the strongest growth opportunities for MSS IoT markets, with Iridium in particular seeing record growth through consumer products such as the Garmin InReach, which currently dominates this market. Globalstar likewise has a strong showing with its SPOT range of devices. However, a growing number of announcements in the.

Software Defined Satellites: Winners of the New-SatCom Era

The software defined satellite (SDS) market has been buzzing with news starting with the launch of Eutelsat 10B, upcoming launch of SES’ mPower satellites, and new orders from Eutelsat, Intelsat, and SES. The need for SDS is driven by a variety of factors: demand for satellite-based connectivity, development and availability of new technologies, and support.
