Airborne Satellite Connectivity System - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18478284 titled 'Airborne Satellite Connectivity System
Simplified Explanation
The aircraft satellite communications system described in the patent application is a system that allows communication using satellite frequency bands. The system includes a base structure, transmitters, and receivers. The transmitters are connected to the base structure and transmit using a first plurality of satellite frequency bands, while the receivers receive using a second plurality of satellite frequency bands. The system allows for communication between transmitters and receivers positioned at a distance from each other on the base structure.
- Base structure with connectors for aircraft connection points

Original Abstract Submitted
An aircraft satellite communications system that communicates using satellite frequency bands. The aircraft satellite communications system comprises a base structure, transmitters, and receivers. The base structure has connectors arranged to correspond to connection points on an aircraft. The transmitters are connected to the base structure. The transmitters are configured to transmit using a first plurality of the satellite frequency bands. The receivers are connected to the base structure. The receivers are configured to receive using a second plurality of the satellite frequency bands. A selected transmitter in the transmitters transmits using a satellite frequency band in the satellite frequency bands is positioned at a distance from a selected receiver in the receivers using the satellite frequency band in the satellite frequency bands on the base structure with a number of other transmitters and receivers located between the selected transmitter and the selected receiver on the base structure.
