Recent T-Mobile Collaborate with Starlink To provide connectivity for customers in the receptionist dead zone. Starlink on T-Mobile, SAG said, is an example of this satellite technology that is implemented simply and effectively. If you go out of the scope of a T-Mobile tower on the ground, your phone can connect with Starlink passively, without having to change the network yourself.
They worked extremely closely with Google and Apple to ensure that this is a super, super easy experience, according to Mr. Sag Sag. You don't need an application and you don't need to click any buttons. It only works.
The wireless connections on the ground have the ability to interact with integrated in. If you travel and lose connection with a mobile tower, there is probably another type close to your device will automatically connect. Satellite Internet provides that uninterrupted experience even without a mobile tower to connect to phones, tracking machines and a series of connected utilities.
There are friends
Of course, Starlink's satellites are not the only people on Launchpad. On the same day T-Mobile first announced cooperation with Starlink, the European Commission also announced contract To put a constellation of 290 satellites into orbit as part of its own infrastructure to be able to recover, connect and security by satellite program (Iris²).
Amazon's Kuiper project There have been prototypes in the sky and are targeting more than 3,000 satellites into orbit to provide broadband Internet services. Google's parent company, alphabet, lengthen Its its own satellite supplier has named Taara for better competition in this field. Three Chinese companies Participated in the competition, including players like Global Lynk And Eutelsat Oneweb.
AT&T and Verizon both work with Texas satellite company Ast Space Mobile To expand their insurance areas. (Verizon has also been work with The Kuiper project since 2021.) Apple has invested $ 1.5 billion in satellite company Glabalstar With the goal of building its own constellation, Apple devices can use features such as emergency SOS and detect car accidents in remote areas without cell signals.
Ian Christensen, senior director of private sector programs at the Safe World Fund, an organization supporting spatial technology cooperation and sustainable space technology. You don't worry about being in a place where you connect to a Starlink satellite, but not a global satellite.
The easy way of interactive ability can get worse, Christensen's warnings, is that if the device locks into exclusive satellite systems. Therefore, if global satellites only operate on Apple's phones or vice versa, there may be some holes in the constellation. However, it is not the same as planning for related companies. One of the most likely developments of this global network, Christensen said, the satellites became unpredictable in the foundation, many ways to operate on land.
