Virtual, wireless mannah: a co-opetitive analysis of the broadband Satellite Industry
Technovation, 2001Co-Authors: Elias G. Carayannis, Jeffrey AlexanderAbstract:Abstract The emerging Satellite communication constellations differ substantially from prior generations of systems. For years, Satellite systems have offered broadcast and interactive services, but with major limitations. The new generation of services promise to overcome the traditional barriers, such as terminal weight and size, equipment and service cost, and degree of mobility. Instead, the new systems will provide completely new capabilities which expand the flexibility for the user and the range of potential applications. However, the introduction of such a “next-generation” communications system is often plagued by difficulties in forecasting market demand, as customer themselves may not accurately forecast their own needs for such services. Using the concept of “co-opetition” derived from game theory, we propose concrete steps which broadband Satellite operators can use to foster market growth for these services.

Davids vs Goliaths in the small Satellite Industry: - the role of technological innovation dynamics in firm competitiveness
Technovation, 2000Co-Authors: Elias G. Carayannis, Robie I Samanta RoyAbstract:Abstract In this paper, a conceptual framework of the nature, structure, and dynamics of technological innovation is developed and applied to the small Satellite Industry. Important components of this framework include: a) the speed and acceleration of technological innovation, and b) the linear and non-linear interactions between technology producers and users (technology and market push and pull mechanisms). We conceptualize technology development and commercialization as an ongoing cooperative and competitive (co-opetitive) process involving enabling and inhibiting factors or mechanisms which govern the speed and acceleration of technological innovation. Enabling factors may include CRADAs, strategic alliances, spin-offs, intellectual property rights, SBIRs, and mentor-protege relationships. Inhibiting factors may include excessive regulation at state, national, and international levels, technological, structural or financial barriers to market entry, competitor response to market entry, and culture clashes such as engineering versus marketing culture or firm versus government versus university cultures. These enabling and inhibiting factors influence and are also influenced by technological and market pulling and pushing forces. We postulate that the size of a firm, in addition to its ability to adapt to and/or absorb technological and market discontinuities, determines the rate at which it innovates (speed of innovation), as well as the rate at which it varies its innovation speed (acceleration of innovation). It is also postulated that a firm's speed and acceleration of innovation are directly proportional to its long-term competitiveness and market success. This conceptual framework was employed to evaluate the capability of small and large firms to develop and commercialize new technologies in the small Satellite Industry. Three firms that are active players in the small Satellite Industry were examined. These firms are small relative to the large aerospace giants (such as Lockheed Martin and Boeing) but they vary in size and age. Two of the firms studied are US start-ups and one is a British university spin-off. Our findings were synthesized to derive insights that could be generalized for the benefit of technology entrepreneurs as well as policy makers in other technology-driven and alliance-rich industries

TWTA On-Orbit Reliability for Satellite Industry
IEEE Transactions on Electron Devices, 2018Co-Authors: Eric F. Nicol, Jason M. RobisonAbstract:On-orbit reliability of traveling wave tube amplifiers (TWTAs) is examined for an on-orbit Satellite fleet. It is compared with prior analyses performed for another Satellite manufacturer’s on-orbit fleet. Interesting commonalities are seen across the two data sets suggesting Industry level trends. By combining the data sets where possible, an exceptionally large data set is achieved which provides indisputable Industry level trends. Through comparing and contrasting the two studies, an interesting thesis is proffered; the reliability rates are independent of Satellite integrator requirements or their test protocols but instead are resultant from long term TWT and electronic power conditioner Industry design and manufacturing improvements. The composite of the two on-orbit fleets represents 421 million amplifier hours of performance. This statistically significant sample size, along with the similarity of key on-orbit fleet performance and reliability statistics validate the trend accuracy and conclusions. It is clear that the TWTA suppliers are continuously improving their manufacturing processes and failure rates are steadily improving as a function of time.

SWOT-AHP analysis of the Korean Satellite and space Industry: Strategy recommendations for development
Technological Forecasting and Social Change, 2021Co-Authors: Junho Lee, Ikjun Kim, Hyomin Kim, Ju-young M. KangAbstract:Abstract The global Satellite Industry is growing in the private market with the advent of SpaceX Corp., Planet Labs Corp., and so forth. Following this trend, the Korean government established the National Space Commission to construct a space development plan that encourages private companies’ participation. Korea has the potential to create various Satellite services based on its information technology and semiconductor industries. Thus, this study aims to present strategies to accelerate the growth of the Satellite Industry by considering various internal and external factors, such as the limitations and strengths of the Korean space and Satellite Industry. This study employs the SWOT-AHP method, to measure these items factors priorities’ and suggest in-depth strategies. The SWOT matrix is constructed based on prior research. Then, an AHP survey of 32 experts is conducted, and strength-threat and strength-opportunity strategies are developed using the top eight relatively important items. The analysis finds that opportunity items have high priorities. Thus, a strategy is devised to meet demand in the public sector and vitalize private businesses. Lastly, topics are collected using latent Dirichlet allocation topic modeling to identify the media's perspective, which we find is similar to the opinions of the experts chosen for this study.

Trading Orbit Spectrum Assignments in the Space Satellite Industry
The American Economic Review, 1991Co-Authors: Harvey J LevinAbstract:Is it feasible to trade rights to use orbital slots and associated Satellite frequencies in a market? Can such rights be delimited today? What is the role of international organs like the International Telecommunications Union (ITU), national agencies like the Federal Communications Commission (FCC), or the United Kingdom's Frequency Planning Organs (FPOs)? What evidence is there that such rights or assignments are in fact configured now and do indeed exist? Are they frequently traded in international as well as domestic broadcast and mobile radio services? Even if practical and viable, what economic policy or equity purposes are served by configuring actual markets for transferable or exchangeable orbit spectrum assignments? Or for schemes where national or international authorities distribute such assignments under competition or specifically by auction to the highest bidder? That is, through public as well as private auctions? Do auctions in any case further distributive equity and not just economic efficiency?'
