J'son & Partners Consulting presents main results of the research "Satellite technologies on the M2M / IoT market". The study presents an analysis of the common M2M / IoT market directions where satellite technologies may be in demand, analysis of the information on new low-orbit satellite projects and calculations of the reference hypothetical multisatellite low-orbit system "Aurora", originally designed for solving the M2M / IoT problems.
The current state and prospects of the satellite segment in the M2M / IoT market
Transition to the "digital economy" is impossible without the development of new information and communication technologies. Often these technologies are simplified to the technologies of high-speed Internet access and elimination of "digital inequality". However, in recent years, special attention has been paid to M2M / IoT technologies. These technologies are fundamentally differs from high-speed access technologies by requirement of low-speed channels for the transmission of small information packets and their subsequent processing for a various monitoring and control services.
M2M / IoT technologies provide an information environment for monitoring and management of any processes that are associated with any production activity and human life in a broad sense. Ultimately, this qualitatively new environment alters not only the world economic structure, but also the existence of man. The physical basis of M2M / IoT networks is mainly ground technologies. However, specialized satellite technologies are in some cases the only possible solution to the M2M / IoT tasks or provide redundancy in solving particularly critical and/or special M2M / IoT tasks.

According to analysts' forecasts, the volume of the global M2M / IoT market is estimated at tens of billions of connections and hundreds of billions of dollars. And although satellite technologies occupy a relatively small share (about 0.1%), in monetary terms, this corresponds to an annual volume of $ 2.5-2.8 billion in the period 2025-2028. For comparison, the world market of satellite remote sensing services in 2015 was $ 1.8 billion with a growth forecast of up to 10% per year.
In general, J'son & Partners Consulting analysts are sure that satellite technologies are relevant for many developing and promising areas of M2M / IoT, which require monitoring and managing dynamic processes and devices in conditions of inaccessibility or insufficient reliability of cellular networks. At the same time, existing satellite systems in the future will not be able to compete in price with the ground-based M2M / IoT technologies. The J'son & Partners Consulting study assesses the conditions for their competitiveness and feasibility using the example of the hypothetical multisatellite low-orbit system "Aurora" with the objective M2M / IoT function.
