How Satellite Communications Works (& Why We're About to See It Everywhere)

We're seeing a lot more phones with satellite connectivity but how does satellite communications even work, why is it on phones all of a sudden, and why are we about to see a lot more of it. Come watch and find out.

Bro, seriously, You should keep up these Type of Tech Videos firstly this is a newer format/niche of Tech Video but really actually connects to our real life...and also So informative ... Learnt new things about tech and communication i never heard And Technologies in work for the future !!

[@john-or9cf]

Saw and heard Sputnik in ‘57…quite a thrill at the time!

Our physics prof announced the launch in my Physics 100 class.

[@dejongdon]

Just came here to say Ive never seen your videos before so the algorithm is working for you.

[@sandiepyaadav]

I missed your line.... First things first... Coffee, checked! :D Amazing videos buddy! Thank you so much!

[@JBR941]

That intro though! 🔥🔥

[@TheUnlockr]

😂🙏🙏🙏

[@MisterWhatWhat]

This was so interesting! ❤

[@U2haveaniceday20]

Great Job and as others have said I hope you do more of these. I knew about this but was wondering when it would be implemented down the line. I know some have dabbled into it but would love to see much more.Thanks so much for sharing.✌️💯

[@YurLord]

I love the network stuff. Please do more about NTN and TN networks.

[@overwatchxrescue]

Incredible job breaking satellite tech in an easy to understand format!

[@stephenhopkins6166]

Nicely done

Hi can you do a Real-World Test of Sony Experia 5 V?

[@AntiGummy]

Just came here to say, the algorithm is working against you. I used to see your videos all the time on my front page, and I sub all notifications. I literally, had to search for you to even find you.

[@benjaminlee3669]

Yeah. IIRC mediatek also released their chip; MT6825, for satellite communications. It will be a reality sooner than we expect.

[@alexandregouge6075]

I wonder if it is actually profitable to massively use satellite. The thing being antennas are working pretty well in most countries. To me there is an issue with the close satellites as it creates sky pollution. We can already see this problem with starlink satellites. I don’t remember the exact figures but there are thousands of satellites in the sky at the moment. With that being said, it is logical that many more satellites will be launched in the sky in the near future to cover our usage if we start using satellites to communicate. Bottom line, using satellites only for sos communication is a great idea, but we shouldn’t rely on satellites to replace our local antennas.

[@TheUnlockr]

So the idea isn't that they'll replace anything. The majority of the planet doesn't have coverage still so the satellites would be a way to cover those areas and that way you'd use your normal towers and cell signal as you always do but for those moments you're outside of that for whatever reason satellites will get to a point where they can provide coverage similar to that of cellular in those underserved areas.

[@Ralphpagan-my1hl]

Ah

[@freshvintage]

Dude help me out - instead of giving the local theater $10.00 for a crappy movie tonight I want to buy a Super Thanks for this video!! But I am not seeing where I can do that??

[@Chockster612]

💯 agree!! I really enjoy his work!

[@lucasbrown7338]

Hold up, MediaTek's MT6825 lets your phone talk to satellites? Forget Wi-Fi woes, this is next-level connectivity! Now who's down for a phone call from the moon?

[@gerrylewis5281]

Using satellites is useful in certain situations. In the military we used satellite phones and a sat navigation system. Very useful. All planes and boats should have one as standard. After all not all plane crashes or boating accidents occur within range of a cell tower, leaving your mobile totally useless. But with a satphone? Your location is easily tracked. If you go trekking in remote areas a mobile phone is useless if you get injured. If you prefer a jungle setting a mobile phone is totally useless. Even a compass may be useless. So yes, there is plenty of examples where satellites can come in useful.

[@Beobout6]

I’m thinking Earth bound cell towers could soon be a thing of the past?

[@zangiYT]

If you really want test something related to satellite 🛰️ communication them please reveal the Huawei Mate 60 pro which is the First smartphone that can handle to communicate with the direct satellite 🛰️ system that is built-in into that china phone even apple is still not able to achieve that technology in there iPhone that china achieve and ready to go

[@TheUnlockr]

The chipset I mention in the video has been out for a while and has been able to do that already 🤷‍♂️

[@zangiYT]

@@TheUnlockr hmm right 👍

[@javezkeith2537]

5G is so sporadic I cannot see seemless connection any time soon unless tech companies have a fantastic plan and a new range of phones.

[@markwilliamson9199]

I imagine that 5G is spotty because you live in the US? Where 5G is driven by private company profit not a national rollout to some balanced plan?

[@jk19781]

Where I live in Chicago with t-mobile my 5g connectivity routinely gets 400mbps speeds. I can download a 2 gb movie in a minute or under usually. And I use a galaxy s23.

[@Fozzee.1970]

​@@markwilliamson9199it's spotty in the UK too and even if you have a 5g signal the speed is often poor. 4g is more consistent.

[@TheSam1802]

This makes me wonder how Huawei is doing it. It'd be nice to know since yhey achieved messages alongside phone calls 🤙

[@TheUnlockr]

Same way as this just with a different satellite partner most likely

[@TheSam1802]

@@TheUnlockr awesome 👍 hopefully you get to check out the phone with their new chip 🤙

[@johnmahlkuch751]

If I’ve ever used wifi on a plane lmao no and planes have Wi-Fi?

[@negig2161]

I wish this becomes the Norm for communication and internet... I would save billion of lives !! And not to forget connect the world further

[@eddylee3826]

Huawei mobile offers the remarkable feature of satellite text and calls on their phones, enabling communication from anywhere in the world, even on a plane! It's truly impressive. Now, I can't help but wonder why Apple seems to lag behind Chinese technology by several years. The advancements in 5G technology, in particular, appear to be rather sluggish in comparison to Chinese mobiles. It's quite apparent that the United States' Apple is trailing behind China's satellite phone capabilities by a significant margin of four years.
