  • Patent number: 9008864
    Abstract: Systems and methods for integrate satellite communications. A network of upward facing antennas placed on top of cell phone towers is established. Each upward facing antenna has a footprint at the altitude of a particular satellite orbit. Upward facing antennas are placed on cell towers so as to establish a continuous coverage over the orbit of a satellite(s) thereby allowing continuous communication using cellular technology with the satellite(s) on orbit.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: May 1, 2014
    Date of Patent: April 14, 2015
    Assignee: Riverside Research Institute
