Abstract
Apparatuses, methods, and systems of a base station of a satellite network managing a connection of a wireless device to the satellite network are disclosed. One method includes broadcasting location information of a satellite associated with the base station, broadcasting an effective communication range for wireless communications between the base station and the wireless device of a satellite beam, wherein the wireless device calculates a distance between the wireless device and a reference point associated with the satellite based on the broadcast location information of the satellite and a location of the wireless device, wherein the wireless device compares the calculated distance with the broadcast effective communication range, and determines a wireless signaling procedure to establish or maintain a wireless connection with the satellite network based on the comparison. The method further includes receiving, by the base station, the wireless signaling procedure from the wireless device.
