Globalstar Satellites
There are primarily two different types of satellites used to deliver voice and data services to customers: LEO (low-Earth Orbit) and GEO (geostationary Orbit). Globalstar has built their network using LEO satellites because of their ability to deliver superb voice quality.
Wireless Technology
Globalstar utilises a version of Code Division Multiple Access (CDMA) technology based upon the IS-95 CDMA standard. CDMA technology forms the foundation for 3G (Third Generation) wireless services, which are in use by over 128 million people around the world. This digital transmission technology allows a large number of wireless customers to simultaneously access a single radio frequency channel.
Globalstar's state-of-the-art technology is proven, and has been designed to take customers well into the future of wireless communications.
Globalstar’s smallest and lightest satellite phone, the Globalstar GSP-1700 adds ergonomic design for even more comfort and convenience. The antenna, when held in a vertical position, communicates with the constellation of Globalstar satellites. It also rotates and stows into the handset when not in use for more compact carrying.
