Flat Panel Antenna Market, LEO Demand Not Headed in Same Direction, NSR Says
Low earth orbit (LEO) mega constellations are particularly focused on consumer broadband as a key market, but to reach those markets they need cheap flat panel antennas, even as FPA developments are headed in other directions with higher revenue potential, Northern Sky Research analyst Lluc Palerm-Serra blogged Monday. He said FPA mass production would help reduce costs, and as LEO constellations ramp up in the mid-2020s, FPAs could start having enough traction to lower prices.
