Satellite phones and satellite internet networks often use Geosynchronous or Geostationary (GEO) satellites. This type of system can provide reliable satellite communications for emergency preparedness but is also quite suitable for commercial applications.

  • But you didn't actually say how they work! 

  • @TheRedDal3k Thanks for your comment. This video was made more to explain how the overall GEO satellite system works so that satellite phone consumers can determine if sat phones on a GEO system will be suitable for their specific requirements and potential applications. I will change the title to reflect that. Were you interested in learning about how the satellite itself functions?

  • @ChromaCommunications Oh ok then, I understand, thank you. Yes I would like to know how one actually works, (stays in relative stillness to the earth). I feel it would be quite beneficial as I can't find any other videos on youtube which do this. Thanks.

    Unfortunately we aren't equiped to delve into the extremely technical details of satellites. However, I did find this video titled:

    "How To Understand Satellites In Its Orbit" by videojugeducation

    It goes into some generic detail regarding how a satellite stays in orbit...it's not highly technical and perhaps you've seen it already but it covers the basics. Goodluck in your search.

see all
