At 12.0% CAGR, the North America Satellite Optical Ground Station Market is projected to be worth US$ 40,776.36 million by 2028, says The Business Market Insights

According to the Business Market Insights’ research, the North America satellite optical ground station market was valued at US$ 23,177.27 million in 2023 and is expected to reach US$ 40,776.36 million by 2028, registering a CAGR of 12.0% from 2023 to 2028. Growing number of satellites launches, and rising amount of space debris are the critical factors attributed to the North America satellite optical ground station market expansion.

The number of satellite launches is increasing globally because of the rising need for satellites in various applications such as earth observation, communication and navigation, and scientific research. In addition, the number of space rocket launches, primarily for deploying satellites in space, is also rising rapidly. In 2021, there were 136 successful rocket launches, whereas in 2022, the number rose to 180. In September 2022, it was seen that 16 orbital launches took place, of which 8 took place in China, 6 in the Americas, and Europe and Russia conducted one each.

As the number of satellite launches has increased, the need for optical ground stations also rose as they are used for commissioning and routine checkout of the satellite and transmitting and receiving the data simultaneously. Moreover, optical ground stations provide real-time communications at much higher data rates, up to several Gbps, compared to RF, which can be used for various applications such as broadband, navigation, and research. In addition, the optical ground station also helps survey space debris in different orbits around the Earth. Also, it is used to conduct surveys and follow-up observations of near-Earth objects, which can help protect the satellites in space and understand the accurate time and place to launch the satellite. Because of all the above uses of optical ground stations, various space centers are integrating new and advanced ground stations. The new ground station will provide quantum secure communication and data rates in the terabit range and help improve the security of high-precision satellite navigation systems. Thus, the growing number of satellite launches is raising the need for more advanced and accurate optical ground stations, driving the satellite optical ground station market.
