  • Gateway rollout
    Patent number: 8792821
    Abstract: A method for providing satellite communications coverage for a geographical area includes operating a plurality of gateways including a first gateway and a second gateway. The first gateway is configured to utilize at least one first spot beam associated with at least one first coverage area, and the second gateway is configured to utilize at least one second spot beam associated with at least one second coverage area. As part of a phased deployment, the at least one second coverage area is expanded to include at least one third coverage area, and the second gateway is configured to provide relayed satellite communications to the plurality of second subscriber terminals located in the at least one second coverage area and to a plurality of third subscriber terminals located in the at least one third coverage area.

  • Virtual gateway redundancy
    Patent number: 8195090
    Abstract: A method and system are presented for providing satellite communications coverage for a geographical area involving operating a plurality of gateways including a first gateway and a second gateway, wherein the first gateway is configured to utilize at least one first spot beam associated with at least one first coverage area within the geographic area to provide relayed satellite communications to a plurality of first subscriber terminals located in the at least one first coverage area, wherein the second gateway is configured to utilize at least one second spot beam associated with at least one second coverage area within the geographic area to provide relayed satellite communications to a plurality of second subscriber terminals located in the at least one second coverage area, and upon a failure condition associated with the at least one first spot beam, expanding the at least one second coverage area to include a portion of the at least one first coverage area, to provide relayed satellite communications
