The small satellite market report is a compilation of different segments including market breakdown by end-user, application, subsystem, type, and region.

Market Segmentation

The small satellite market (on the basis of the subsystem) is further segmented into different types of subsystems being used in small satellites, including payload, structure, telecommunication, on-board computer, power system, attitude control system, and propulsion system. The support subsystem, known as satellite bus, comprises structure, telecommunication, on-board computer, power system, attitude control system, and propulsion system. However, the payload is considered to be the central unit of small satellites as it is responsible for providing core functionality. Payload subsystem dominated the small satellite market in 2018 and is anticipated to maintain its dominance throughout the forecast period (2019-2030).

Small satellites are utilized by various end-users such as academic, commercial, government, and defense. Academic end-user segment mainly consists of the key educational institutes and universities which are developing their own small satellites for space exploration and scientific research. Commercial end-users basically comprise the commercial industries, such as oil & gas, mining, agriculture, and more, which are utilizing small satellites for their product mapping and earth exploration. Government end users are the prominent space agencies which are operated, developed and launched by the government. Small satellites do not require a dedicated launching system, in fact, they are launched as secondary payloads with a primary satellite for a space mission, thus increasing their rate of penetration in the commercial as well as government sectors.

Small satellites are popular due to their small size, low cost, and light weight. Small satellites are utilized for varied applications such as communication, earth observation, and remote sensing, space exploration, technology development, and demonstration and surveillance.

Technology demonstration and development has been the most common application of small satellites since its inception however, the trend is rapidly changing toward their adoption in other applications as well. Communication and earth observation and remote sensing are the most used applications for small satellites. It is mainly due to the fact that constellation of small satellites can collect data more frequently than the traditional satellites and is cost-effective. Moreover, satellite constellation can link among themselves enabling multiple satellites to perform the task and communicate with the ground stations.

Space exploration through small satellites involves significant factors in space missions, including benefits in weight, power, size, cost, and time of development. Currently, major space exploration projects are utilizing small satellites for varied applications. Small satellites are among five types, femtosatellite, picosatellite, nanosatellite, microsatellite, and minisatellite. Nanosatellites are the most popular, as it is increasingly preferred by different end-users including academic, commercial, government, and defense.
