Description

Optical Space Communications Growth Opportunities


Increasing Connectivity Needs and Data from Space Drive Innovations and Disruptive Technology Adoption

The demand for space-based data and connectivity is growing at an unprecedented rate. Frost & Sullivan expects this demand to outpace what conventional radio frequency (RF)-based communication systems could provide, driving the need to explore other technologies to meet the growing needs. One such technology considered a better alternative is optical space communication systems.

These systems will allow market participants to get better transmission speeds—more than 100 times faster than conventional RF-based systems. Optical-based systems have tremendous advantages over RF-based systems but have their fair share of challenges.

Since the market is in its early stage, we have not determined its size and growth rate. However, we provide stakeholders insights into the opportunities available in funding, partnerships, and product development that can help the industry move forward over the next few years.

RESEARCH SCOPE

In this study, Frost & Sullivan covers the emerging optical space communications market, the evolving nature of optical space communication systems, and the initiatives of space and defense industries to adopt these systems. Other vital aspects included are:

Industry drivers and restraints
Leading competitors and the areas they should focus on
Laser communications terminal (LCT) technology landscape

How Do Licenses Work?

How Do Licenses Work?

The primary function of a report license is to define how many people within a company are authorized to use the purchased report. This is separate to how a report might be delivered. Unless specifically identified otherwise, the purchase option is Single User. Below is a helpful description of that license, along with a sampling of others most commonly offered.

  • This license allows only one user to have access to and to use/read the report. It is not one user at a time or one user group; it is an individual who will be reading and utilizing the report.

  • This license allows for the entire purchasing company to read and use the report. This is the license level that would allow for a report to be placed on an internal company shared drive for access by all employees of that direct company. This license does not extend to parent or sister company use.

  • This license is designed to allow an entire department within a company full access to a report. The departmental license is a great option for companies that have more than one location and the department is spread out all over the country/world

  • This license is for companies that have one location where they want the report to be accessible by all employees within that physical location.

  • This is the most flexible of the licensing options. Some publishers will allow you to get a license for a preset number of people (typically 5). These licenses are ideal for small work groups.

License options are at the discretion of each publisher. As such, not all licenses indicated above are available for every product. If you are uncertain of the best license for your needs or would like a license that is not proactively available, please contact us and we will be happy to assist.
