Dublin, Jan. 29, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The "Artificial Intelligence (AI) in Satellite Internet Market Report 2026" has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.
The artificial intelligence (AI) in satellite internet market is witnessing substantial growth, with its size projected to expand from $2.52 billion in 2025 to $3.25 billion in 2026, driven by a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 29%. This surge is fueled by the increasing adoption of satellite internet in remote regions, technological advancements in AI algorithms for network optimization, rising investments in satellite infrastructure, and partnerships between AI tech providers and satellite operators.
The market's trajectory continues upward, with a forecasted size of $8.91 billion by 2030, reflecting a CAGR of 28.7%. Key growth factors include the development of autonomous satellite management systems, demand for AI-powered antennas, and integration of AI for bandwidth allocation and signal optimization. The expansion within commercial sectors and emphasis on real-time performance monitoring are shaping the industry landscape.
High bandwidth demand is a significant market driver. The proliferation of data-intensive applications necessitates efficient network management, dynamic traffic optimization, and AI-enabled resource distribution to ensure uninterrupted, high-speed data transmission. For instance, in the UK, gigabit-capable broadband accessibility surged from 64% in January 2022 to 78% by January 2024, reflecting this trend.
Companies are heavily investing in real-time signal processing solutions to bolster network performance. August 2025 saw Xovian Aerospace raise $2.5 million to develop the world's first AI-native RF satellite infrastructure. By embedding AI directly into satellites, Xovian aims to provide real-time RF signal analysis, detecting threats and interference that traditional satellites miss. Plans include launching their first satellite by the end of 2025.
The market is also witnessing strategic mergers, such as SES S.A.'s $3.1 billion acquisition of Intelsat S.A. This merger combines geostationary and medium earth orbit capabilities, enhancing their service offerings across multiple sectors.
Prominent players in the AI in satellite internet sector include Viasat Inc., SES S.A., Iridium Communications, and others. North America was the largest market in 2025, but Asia-Pacific is set to experience the fastest growth. Regions analyzed in the market report include Europe, South America, and Africa, among others.
