Iridium s crosslinked mesh architecture creates a web of coverage encompassing 100 of the planet from low earth orbit providing low latency weather resilient services unlike any other satellite provider.
Iridium satellite network frequency.
Each iridium next satellite is outfitted with two 20 30ghz uplink downlink steerable feeder links connecting the satellite to a terrestrial gateway and four 23 18 to 23 38 ghz crosslinks to connect each satellite to neighboring.
Extending the reach of terrestrial and cellular infrastructure like never before iridium certus mobile satellite communications across maritime iot aviation land mobile and government applications.
With communications solutions ranging from satellite phones to broadband terminals iridium is trusted by more than a million mariners pilots humanitarians first responders and governments around the world.
Iridium certus is the new advanced multi service platform enabled by the upgraded iridium constellation.
Only iridium offers truly global communications through a constellation of 66 crosslinked leo satellites.
The iridium next network covers the entire earth including poles oceans and airways with 66 satellites with the remaining 9 acting as active backups for a total of 75 launched.
Making connections anywhere to anyone or anything there is no other network like iridium.
Iridium ground stations interconnect the satellite network with land based fixed or wireless infrastructures worldwide to improve availability.
In space each iridium satellite is linked to up to four others two in the same orbital plane and one in each adjacent plane creating a dynamic network that routes traffic among satellites to ensure global coverage even when.
Provides global voice calling and text messaging solutions for your phone as well as enhanced data capabilities offered through optimized apps to meet your unique needs turning it into a satellite smartphone.
Six remain on the ground as spares for a total of 81 built.
