ABSTRACT:
A system facilitates global cellular communication by utilizing a gateway satellite (1000) which communicates with low-earth orbiting satellites (10, 20) via signalling links (1001, 1002). Switching is performed in each of the satellites (10, 20) and switching interconnections as well as voice path communications are switched via the gateway satellite (1000). With switching performed in a gateway satellite (1000), the use of a ground-based gateway network (74) is minimized and, in some cases, eliminated.
