The rising demand for satellite antennas for maritime applications is boosting the market growth.
A satellite antenna is a telecommunication device used to receive microwave signals. It receives uplink signals and transmits downlink signals. This type of antenna is mostly used for transmitting and broadcasting purposes. The satellite antenna converts microwave signals to electric signals, which can then be used by computers, television, and other devices.
Adoption of C band for high end satellite application is expected the satellite antenna market growth in the forecasted period
The frequency band segment of satellite antenna market includes K/KA/KU, L & S, C, X, and VHF & UHF. Among them, the demand for C frequency band accounts for the largest market share due to its use for satellite communications, full-time satellite TV networks, or raw satellite feeds. Also, K/KA/KU band is used for satellite communication. For instance, the band is used in Europe for direct broadcast satellite services, such as Astra. The use of other frequency bands like L & S, X, and VHF & UHF are also encouraging the demand for satellite antennas.
