The ubiquitous mobile subscriber station of the present invention enables the subscriber to receive wireless cellular mobile telecommunication services in a unified manner in both the terrestrial (ground-based) and non-terrestrial regions. The ubiquitous mobile subscriber station extends the usage of existing cellular mobile telecommunication frequencies allocated for ground-based cellular communications to non-terrestrial cellular communications in a manner that avoids the possibility of signal interference between the ground-based and non-terrestrial mobile subscriber stations. In particular, the ubiquitous mobile subscriber station automatically transitions between the communications paradigm used in ground-based cellular communications and the communications paradigm used in non-terrestrial cellular communications as a function of the present location of the ubiquitous mobile subscriber station. The subscriber therefore can use the ubiquitous mobile subscriber station in all locations for uninterrupted wireless communications services. In addition, the non-terrestrial capabilities of the ubiquitous mobile subscriber station can be used to implement data transmission capabilities for use in the aircraft to provide Flight Information Services, real time monitoring of aircraft operation, as well as enhanced data communication services for the passengers in the aircraft.
