1. A cellular mobile telecommunication system for providing radio communication with non-terrestrial mobile subscriber stations using radio frequencies allocated for ground-based mobile telecommunication stations, comprising:

  • at least one radio transmitter for generating at least one telecommunication cell, each telecommunication cell having three-dimensional extent, arranged in at least three dimensions, with communication signals generated by said at least one transmitter being at radio frequencies allocated for ground-based mobile subscriber stations, incapable of reception by said ground-based mobile subscriber stations;

    at radio frequencies allocated for ground-based mobile subscriber stations, incapable of reception by said ground-based mobile subscriber stations;

    at least one radio receiver for receiving communication signals generated by said non-terrestrial mobile subscriber stations extant in said at least one telecommunication cell with communication signals generated by said non-terrestrial mobile subscriber stations being at a wavelength allocated for ground-based mobile telecommunication stations and incapable of reception by said ground-based mobile subscriber stations.
