Gap Analysis in Satellite Communication Services
Abstract
The national information network is being implemented with the aim of providing the services needed by the people through internal infrastructure and independent of international internet platforms. Considering the geographical diversity of the country and in order to increase the reliability coefficient and access penetration coefficient in the national information network and also due to the needs of future services, it is not possible to rely solely on fiber and the use of satellite communications will be unavoidable. At present, satellite communication has not reached a worthy position in the country's communication network and is limited to some applications such as banking, oil and gas etc. However, due to the development of broadband networks and the increasing need for high-speed data transmission and the increase in data volume, as well as creating social justice and increasing the speed of access, as well as the Internet penetration rate in the country in order to access various services, it is necessary to develop satellite communications to should be taken seriously. In this regard, an analysis of the market of several categories of services in Iran has been done so that the amount of gap in the amount of service provision and the amount of need to receive services can be seen.
