ABSTRACT:
A communication system and methodology are implemented to anticipate periodic or predictable disruptions of communications in a satellite communication network. The communication system and methodology then compensate for this disruption in an appropriate manner. Such prediction and compensation actions are performed for a selected group of subscribers ("premium" subscribers) who wish to originate or receive telephone calls during the period of time that the outage or disruption occurs. To compensate for such predictable outages, the communication network takes advantage of the multiple gateways typically implemented within mobile satellite communicate networks. Rather than using the multiple gateways for redundancy, the communication network and methodology recognize that the multiple gateways may also be used for the alternate routing of telephone calls, particularly during a period of time in which the outage occurs. Through this methodology, a "virtual routing" operation may be executed.
