technology.
"We are very pleased to have received this patent for our
non-line-of-sight satellite-based communications technology," said

efforts to expand SatMAX deployments and market applications."
Eagle's exclusive fixed and portable SatMAX non-line-of-sight
satellite communications technology enables civilian government,
military and enterprise customers to quickly and easily make reliable,
fully wireless, voice and data communications available in any
non-line-of-sight environment including inside buildings or
structures, onboard vehicles, aircraft or ships. With SatMAX, users of
the Iridium satellite network can use their existing satellite phones
to make multiple concurrent calls within SatMAX-enabled "hotspot"
areas from any location on Earth. The technology enables routine,
mission critical and backup communications that can improve safety and
security, emergency preparedness and response, user productivity,
mobility, problem solving and mission support. In its portable
configuration, SatMAX can be deployed in minutes, easily transported
and can operate either on batteries or standard AC power allowing
users with existing Iridium handsets to quickly and easily make secure
calls from virtually any location.
