航空機における衛星通信サービス：ジェット旅客機・商業航空における市場機会

With a growing number of passengers transported, with more and longer routes flown, airlines are looking at improving the flight experience of its ever-demanding customers. Building on a successful deployment for crew communications and business jet customers, players in the market are eyeing with glee the captive audience of over 2 billion passengers flying around the world as a source of additional revenues from a growing offering of in-flight entertainment services that overtook the corporate magazine era.

Moving to new voice, data and video global broadband services, commercial airlines are not just continuing to expand service to high-paying business class customers with more luxury than ever before; they are also ensuring revenue is generated throughout the aircraft.

This and other factors are leading to development of an expanded suite of satellite communications products and services to offer connectivity above 10,000 feet with Internet, mobile telephony and a host of other applications that defy the demise of the commercial Connexion by Boeing program.

Fixed satellite services (FSS) operators have joined the mobile satellite services (MSS) players in the aeronautical market, with onboard GSM, in-flight live TV and hotspots-in-the-sky. The competition is not just from various satellite solutions, however, and ground-to-air solutions are also in the development stages. The regulatory hurdles are many and their impact varies by region and type of services, which could delay the expected huge commercial potential.

What are the uncertainties surrounding market acceptance and security requirements for these satellite solutions in the airline industry today? What are the expected returns for service providers and operators alike? What developments and services can be expected to sustain growth in the long run? Is there a play for mobile telephony via satellite on aircraft? What are the drivers for the current and new satellite services for this emerging market? Are there regions that will lead for certain types of services? How many broadband mobile satellite units and bandwidth can be expected to address this market?

These and other aspects of the MSS Aero market are assessed in this latest NSR study. NSR addresses the general market trends, aero user requirements, and the role that satellites can play, as well as the regulatory and business issues that affect the use of satellite-based systems and services in aero markets. NSR also quantifies demand and revenue forecasts for the various aero market segments identified that satellites can target.
