Abstract

System, method and application integrates secure, seamless and global telecommunications satellite system network with certain radiocommunications services providing two physically separate and electronically discrete wireless radio frequency (RF) broadband networks delivering terabit/sec data transfer rates per each satellite and combines redundant terrestrial fiber private networks to address atmospheric attenuation and system failures. The super speed satellite system (S4) with separate discreet network connectivity for both performance data and Internet signals resides on virtual cloud platform to support multiple mobile connectivity applications to access, monitor, track and relay RF multimedia signal transmissions in two modes: download or streaming enabling real time virtual “black box” signal transmissions of approximately 9.5 terabits/sec per satellite to/from any latitude or longitude between aircraft, and authorized S4 ground network operating centers (NOC). S4 telecommunication system includes phased array and synthetic aperture technologies to plot top-down virtual representation of objects moving through pre-defined airspace.
