World First Satellite based two way messaging system

News: Qualcomm introduced the first two-way communications system based on satellites. Snapdragon Satellite is its name. This implies that SMS is compatible with WhatsApp. When using a two-way messaging service like WhatsApp, both users can send and receive messages at the same time. But there is just one operation that can be performed in one-way messaging apps that offer SMS services.

 

Snap Dragon Satellite information

  • It was introduced at CES 2023.
  • A 5G Modem RF system powers it.
  • It is capable of supporting 5G wireless networks. Utilized in flying objects is NTN.
  • Simply said, X and Y are having a conversation. X says “Hello.” Y accepts and responds with “Hello.” Now, X sends another “How are you” message before hearing from Y. Now, the greetings “Hello” from Y and “How are you” from X collide. Both parties must wait. In two-way communication, there is no waiting. Just by speaking on the phone, you start conversations.
  • The Iridium satellite constellation provides support for the two-way communications system. The US-based Iridium Communication company launched the Iridium constellation. The satellites’ primary function is to transmit L-band data, mostly voice data. Additionally, satellite phones are commonly used.
