Market Highlights
The growth
of the global satellite bus market can be attributed to the increasing adoption
of CubeSats as they are equipped with the potential of automated data
gathering, warning systems, and enhanced imaging capabilities. These functions
assist scientists in performing space exploration and earth monitoring
activities with precision and safety. Furthermore, increasing investments by
various governments in space projects are propelling market growth. However,
the rigid design structure of satellite buses is expected to hamper the market
growth as the new players, planning to enter the satellite bus market, do not
possess the required technology for manufacturing the specific satellites.
The
global satellite bus market has been segmented based on satellite type,
subsystem, application, and region.
On the basis
of satellite type, the global satellite bus market has been divided into
small satellite, medium satellite, and large satellite. The small satellite
segment is expected to account for the largest market share and register the
highest CAGR during the forecast period of 2019 to 2024. Small satellites
include types of satellites such as nanosatellites, microsatellite, and
minisatellites. The growing adoption of nanosatellites is driving the growth of
the small satellite segment. Nanosatellites weigh less than 1.33 kgs per unit
and assist in various activities, such as space research and earth observation.
These lightweight satellites offer various benefits such as easy construction
of satellites and cost-effectiveness.
On the basis
of subsystem, the global satellite bus market has been classified as attitude
control system, structures and mechanisms, flight software, thermal control,
propulsion, electric power system (EPS), and
telemetry tracking and command (TT&C). The electric power system (EPS)segment is expected to
account for the largest market share and register the highest CAGR during the
forecast period of 2019 to 2024. The EPS supports multiple electricity
sources such as fuel and solar.  Furthermore, the EPS are reliable,
compatable, and cost-effective.
By
application, the global satellite bus market has been categorized as
communication, earth observation and meteorology, scientific research and
exploration, mapping and navigation, and surveillance and security. The
communication segment dominated the market in 2018. However, the earth
observation and meteorology segment is expected to be the fastest-growing
during the forecast period. Satellite bus assists in observing the earth and
track natural resources which is expected to contribute to the growth of the
segment over the forecast period. Satellite bus such as AstroBus-XS
manufactured by the aeronautics company, Airbus SAS, offers features such as
extended swath, increased image size, and the capabilility to acquire more
images of the earth in a single day.
Based on
region, the global satellite bus market has been segmented into North America,
Europe, Asia-Pacific, Latin America, and the Middle East & Africa. The
North American market accounted for the largest market share in 2018. However,
the market in Asia-Pacific is expected to register the highest CAGR during the
forecast period. Increasing adoption of satellites for offering enhanced
network connectivity to consumers in rural areas is driving the market growth
in the region. For example, in January 2019, China launched the Chang'e 4, a
satellite that assists in offering Internet connectivity in rural areas.
Key Players
The key
players in the global satellite bus market are Airbus SAS (Netherlands), Ball
Corporation (US), China Aerospace and Technology Corporation (CASC) (China),
Israel Aerospace Industries Ltd (Israel), Boeing (US), Honeywell International
Inc. (US), Lockheed Martin Corporation (US), Northrop Grumman Corporation (US),
Mitsubishi Electric Corporation (Japan), Maxar Technologies Ltd (US), Sierra
Nevada Corporation (US), and Thales Group (France).
