Research and Markets: Global Public Safety Satellite Broadband Communications Report 2014 - Forecasts to 2018


DUBLIN --(Business Wire)--

Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/r6zl63/global_satellite) has announced the addition of the "Global Public Safety Satellite Broadband Communications Report 2014 - Forecasts to 2018" report to their offering.

One of the main drivers in the global satellite broadband communication in public safety market is the increasing demand for public safety. Public awareness and increasing public safety has enhanced the demand for public safety operations in recent years. Earlier, few developed countries were offering major public safety services. However, in current days, a large number of countries offer several public safety services. In order to provide better public safety services, many countries mainly depend on satellite broadband communication systems.

The usage of satellite-based emergency communication services for disaster management across the globe has increased significantly in recent years. More specifically, after the advent of Hurricane Katrina in the US, natural-disaster-prone countries have enhanced their budgets for satellite communication for use in disaster management. Further, to establish an efficient emergency communication system to handle disasters, the US government has invested in providing emergency communication services before and after the disaster through satellite communication. This includes receiving regular updates, government notifications, and advisory services, provision of movable communication vehicles, and establishing temporary communication channels during the relief period. Due to the above measures, when Hurricane Sandy hit in 2012, the US government was able to successfully manage and communicate pre-disaster notifications and relief work details using its disaster information reporting system.



Further, the report states that one of the major challenges in this market is the increasing adoption of LTE (News - Alert)-based mobile broadband communication for public safety. LTE is becoming widely accepted as the most efficient data-supported mobile technology. Moreover, the quality of LTE communication services is better than satellite communication. In addition, the rate of data packet transfer is faster than satellite communication and the data security for LTE services is better than satellite communication systems.

Key vendors dominating this space are:


  • Cambium Networks (News - Alert) Ltd.
  • Harris CapRock Communications Inc.
  • Inmarsat plc
  • Intelsat S.A
