Article body

Satellite internet is the future of internet access, not only for the United States, but the rest of the world. Technology companies are actively exploring this business sector, referred to as the proliferated satellite constellations market, evaluating business models and market variables that may help or hinder their success in this new arena.

What if there was a way to predict how the satellite internet economy might play out in the years to come?

Aerospace engineering assistant professor Davide Guzzetti is working to help shed light on the potential of such an economy with a new project titled “Sat-Tycoon: Modelling Economic Competition in the Business of Mega-Constellations.” Guzzetti is collaborating with Daniel Tauritz, interim director and chief cyber AI strategist at the Auburn Cyber Research Center, whose research interests include adversarial AI.
