Taking Risks to Stimulate Backhaul Demand

Backhaul is poised to be a key driver for satellite industry growth. The combination of advanced ground segment technology and competitive capacity pricing makes satellite a compelling solution for MNOs to expand coverage.

The Asian Scale Paradox

Asia is undoubtedly one of the fastest growing regions for satellite communications. Raw market potential is massive combining poor terrestrial coverage, difficult geographies and buoying economies. Many players, both local and international, are looking to capture opportunities in the region as markets continue to be under-penetrated. Yet, there are significant roadblocks and hurdles that have.

Wireless Backhaul – The Future of Satcom in the Zettabyte Era

Mobile growth continues unabated, with mobile data demand rising exponentially in all regions.  As mobile users demand more, however, terrestrial resources are ever straining to keep up.  On the surface, satellite’s ability to provide coverage, HTS cost reductions and broadcast/multicast support would seem like a perfect gap filler for mobile network operators.  However, the satellite.

Wireless Backhaul via Satellite: The Battleground between FSS & HTS

NSR’s longest-running coverage of wireless backhaul via satellite reveals a market filled with potential but faced with increasing internal and external competition.  Within the satellite industry, new HTS capacity from the likes of Intelsat EPIC and others stands to change the cost equation for mobile operators and truly enable data-rich mobile services.  Given the HTS.
