NSR Research Report: Wireless Backhaul via Satellite, 3rd Edition |
|
October 2008 saw the beginning of the globe's worst economic downturn since the Great Depression. Equipment manufacturers and other companies involved in the wireless ecosystem were not spared as consumers tightened their belts, resulting in negative revenue growth.
However, overall mobile subscriptions and select companies involved in the provision of wireless services not only experienced continued growth but generated record monthly subscriber increases in the months that arguably had the biggest impact on consumers and businesses. As the road to recovery and preparation for an economic upturn now dominate business planning and competitive strategies, the opportunity for tapping current and unaddressed mobile subscribers will have to once again consider the backhaul component for serving the next 3 billion people over the next 10 years.
Coverage, efficiency and cost factors, among others, will be the main points of consideration in choosing a backhaul solution. In the 2nd Edition of this report, it was found that terrestrial alternatives such as microwave technology have proven to be far superior to satellite solutions in terms of bandwidth costs. As such, satellite backhaul has been relegated as a relative niche solution and with the advent of other terrestrial technologies such as WiMAX that could likewise perform wireless backhaul services, satellite technology's value proposition may be further encroached upon.
However, there is a potential game changer that could drastically improve satellite's role in a growing market. High Throughput Satellites (HTS) that can dramatically lower the cost per bit of delivering a satellite service are now examining satellite backhaul for the wireless industry. iPSTAR in Asia has begun backhauling WiMAX traffic in Vietnam, and the same can be applied to other satellite programs including ViaSat-1, KA-SAT and Yahsat as well as the Medium Earth Orbit (MEO) O3b program.
In picking a technology solution, several elements need to be considered in establishing growth patterns in Greenfield markets, including disposable income, regulatory environments and infrastructure development, among others. Rural electrification for instance needs to increase in order to provide power to base stations.
These and other aspects of the satellite backhaul market are assessed in this latest NSR study. NSR addresses the general and region-specific market trends and the role satellite-based backhaul platforms can play. NSR likewise examines the interplay of wireless technologies that affect the value proposition and corresponding penetration level per wireless platform.
Specific satellite BTS forecasts for wireless technology platforms are provided per region, which provide a road map of sorts in judging which technology platforms are likely to be deployed in specific regions of the globe in order to ascertain where satellite-backhaul equipment and services fit over the long term. The evolution or move towards an all-IP platform as well as the impact of HTS solutions will be given special consideration.
The NSR Difference
This effort from NSR gives the reader a realistic outlook of market and technology trends that affect mobile subscriber take-up, which then feed into the role and place of satellite platforms in the wireless backhaul market.
The report provides an honest assessment of legacy systems that have been the technology choice of backhaul engineers, while providing a technical and price analysis for upcoming high throughout satellite (HTS) solutions. This potential "game changer" is scrutinized and its future role in the complex interplay of technology choices is determined.
Those looking for the bottom line can expect to find both qualitative and quantitative elements for each technology, highlighting and examining their unique and compelling value proposition as they address traffic needs while being subject to stringent ROI benchmarks.
By segmenting both the 2008 baseline and the 2009-2018 forecasts by equipment type and space segment category, the reader is able to navigate this promising market and determine the best course of action and strategic direction to undertake for areas of growth and future impact.
Finally, this 3rd Edition study provides a longstanding breadth of knowledge and analysis that has built a solid foundation by which to ground market trends and revenue prospects. NSR's findings and conclusions are a result of years of experience in the satellite services and equipment markets in general and in the backhaul market in particular.
