The Teledesic Network (the Network) is a high-capacity broadband network that combines the global coverage and low latency of a LEO constellation of satellites with the flexibility of the Internet and "fiber-like" transmission quality. It brings affordable access to interactive broadband communication to all areas of the Earth, including to those users that could not be served economically by other means. It can serve as the access link between a user and a gateway into a terrestrial network, as the internetwork that links networks together, or as the communication link between users. Although optimized for service to fixed-site Terminals, the Network is able to serve transportable Terminals and some mobile Terminals, such as for maritime and aviation applications. Teledesic service will be provided in host countries through local service providers who administer and control the services offered to their end users.
