This network would eventually become iridium.
Iridium satellite network architecture.
No other network matches the reach coverage and reliability of iridium.
Iridium stands alone as the only truly pole to pole satellite network.
Today many communications navigations space mission and observation satellites are in low earth orbits.
This crosslinked architecture provides the additional advantage that communications can be grounded near their desired destinations.
Unique to iridium this architecture provides inherent advantages in performance and reliability over other mobile satellite services providers.
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 operates the world s largest commercial constellation with a mesh architecture of 66 cross linked.
Satellite constellation a uniquely sophisticated architecture.
The network is considered a meshed constellation of interconnected cross linked satellites so that each satellite talks with the other nearby satellites in adjacent orbits.
The iridium network is one of the most robust communications networks in the world consistently performs at 99 9 availability redundant network and satellite architecture only commercial satellite network with fully functional in orbit spares network performance demonstrated to be compliant with gold rcp240.
Iridium operates the world s largest commercial constellation with a mesh architecture of 66 cross linked low earth orbit leo satellites providing inherent performance and dependability advantages over bent pipe geostationary geo configurations.

Iridium communications owns and operates the constellation additionally selling equipment and access to its services it was conceived by bary bertiger raymond j.
With an upgraded network iridium is poised now more than ever to meet the growing demand for global communications on land at sea and in the skies far into the future.
Through a crosslinked and overlapping mesh architecture iridium s global coverage means that you are never out of reach regardless of your location.
Satellite constellation a uniquely sophisticated architecture.
