The report “Small Satellite Market by Mass (1-10, 11-100, 101-1,200 kg), Frequency (L, S, C, X, Ku, Ka, Q/V/E, HF/VHF/UHF, Laser/Optical), Propulsion Technology (Chemical, Electric, Hybrid), Application, Customer, System and Region – Global Forecast to 2030” The small satellite market is projected to grow from USD 9.35 billion in 2025 to USD 32.13 billion by 2030, with a CAGR of 28.0%. The small satellite market is growing because of the expansion of LEO constellations for broadband and Earth observation. Increased government use of small satellites for ISR, PNT, and tactical communications is creating steady institutional demand. Additionally, falling manufacturing and launch costs are enabling shorter replacement cycles and more frequent satellite launches. The rising need for high-revisit data in downstream applications is further boosting the adoption of large, scalable small satellite constellations.

Ku-band is expected to be the largest frequency segment during the forecast period.
Ku-band is the largest segment in the small satellite market, mainly because it is widely used for satellite communication by both commercial and government users. It offers a good balance of bandwidth coverage and terminal size, making it useful for broadband connectivity in maritime, aviation, and enterprise services. Many LEO and GEO constellations use Ku-band payloads, leading to high satellite volumes and steady demand. Additionally, the ground infrastructure for Ku-band is already well developed, and global regulations support its use, helping it maintain a dominant position in the Small Satellite Industry.
Commercial is expected to be the fastest-growing customer segment during the forecast period.
Commercial is the fastest-growing segment in the small satellite market because more companies are using satellites for data and revenue-generating services. Commercial satellite operators, telecom firms, and service providers are deploying small satellite constellations to provide broadband connectivity, high-resolution Earth imagery, and continuous monitoring. Lower satellite and launch costs have reduced entry barriers, allowing private companies to quickly scale their constellations. Additionally, increasing demand from sectors such as energy, media, and research for real-time and high-frequency data is boosting commercial investment in small satellite systems.
