Application (Backhaul, Tracking & Monitoring, Last Mile Access, Earth Observation, Research & Space Exploration
The backhaul segment is anticipated to witness robust growth in the global optical satellite communication market with a 28% revenue share. This could be due, in particular, to technologies such as M2M communication and the Internet of Things that are predicted to have a greater demand for backhaul connections. Furthermore, it is anticipated that the market segment's growth will be supported by an increase in cell phone traffic.
Component (Receivers, Transmitters, Modulator)
The transmitters segment is expected to hold 45% share of the global optical satellite communication market during the forecast period. That's because optical satellite transmitters are capable of delivering light wavelengths with low power, negligible interference and a high degree of security. By 2020, there will be more than 8 million connections between machines in the world.
