TechNavio today launched its report Global Maritime VSAT Market 2011“2015 based on an in-depth study covering the Americas, and the EMEA and APAC regions. The report aims to aid decision makers™ understanding of the present and the future landscape of the Global Maritime VSAT market.
Commenting on the report, an analyst from TechNavio™s Telecom team said, Reduction in the size and price of antennas is a major driver for the Global Maritime VSAT market. Small and medium vessel operators are increasingly adopting VSAT services because of the reduction in the price of antennas. Moreover, the installation of VSAT services has become easier because of the reduced size of antennas. Thus, a reduction in the size of antennas not only reduces the cost of installation but also saves the space consumed by it. However, small antennas have a small aperture size, which leads to issues of interference. Hence, vendors are using the spread spectrum technique to address such issues.
According to the report, one of the major trends in the Global Maritime VSAT market is the sharing of bandwidth among ships. The MF D-TDMA protocol enables faster response time of maritime operators. This leads to service-level agreements by which the network can be programmed to meet the demand of the ships by sharing the same bandwidth.
Further, the report also discusses that the low awareness levels pose a major challenge to the Global Maritime VSAT market.
The study was conducted using an objective combination of primary and secondary information including inputs from key participants in the industry. The report contains a comprehensive market and vendor landscape in addition to a SWOT analysis of the key players.
