One of the key trends in the global In-Flight Entertainment System market is the increasing adoption of SATCOM technology in the IFE systems. The higher the frequency, the more bandwidth is accessible, and the larger the bandwidth, the more data can be carried in satellite communication technology. Different frequency bands, including L, S, C, X, Ku, K, and Ka, are used in SATCOM. The Ka-band uses a frequency range of 26.5-40GHz, which is the largest among the other bands. In comparison to other frequency bands such as Ku-band and L-band, the Ka-band provides high-speed data transfer. As a result, the airlines aim to provide an in-flight entertainment and connectivity framework based on the Ka-band SATCOM network. This technique is expected to speed up data streaming and provide high-speed internet. In August 2020, DC Aviation Group announced plans to upgrade their global 5000 aircraft with Gogo, LLC's SCS Elite (Elite Smart Cabin System). The aircraft was also equipped with a new satellite communication system and an Inmarsat SwiftBroadband high data rate service.

The Global In-Flight Entertainment System Market is segmented into North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, Latin America, and Middle East & Africa. In 2021, the North American region is projected to hold the most substantial share of the market. The regional market is likely to be driven by the presence of the major players operating in the market. Viasat, Inc., Astronics Corporation, Iridium Communications Inc., and Gogo LLC are among some of the key players operating in the region in the market. The in-flight internet provider Gogo declared the plans to bring 5G to the North American skies that will start by 2021. 5G services in-flight are intended to power faster Wi-Fi on smaller commercial airlines in the North American region. The company essentially grafted the 5G network onto the 250 towers the company currently leases to power its ATG service. The 5G connection is projected to be delivered to aircraft via a combination of an unlicensed 2.4GHz spectrum, known as a proprietary modem designed by Gogo, and advanced beamforming technology.
