AI adoption in satellite networks: strategies for operators

Satellite networks are evolving rapidly due to the rise of multi-orbit constellations, hybrid connectivity and growing demand for high-performance, always-on services. However, increasing architectural complexity and reliance on legacy systems are limiting operators’ ability to scale, ensure resilience and maintain security in this new environment.

This report discusses:

• the challenges associated with the increasing complexity of satellite networks
• the value of AI-driven simulation and orchestration in designing resilient networks
• the ability of AI-enabled cloud-native architectures to drive efficiency in satellite networks
• the role standards play in AI orchestration and virtualisation to ensure secure satellite networks.
