Abstract

A user equipment (UE) communicates with remote endpoints by accessing a space vehicle (SV) in store and forward (S&F) mode when the SV has no feeder link to a network. The SV includes RAN and CN capability to enable the UE to communicate with an on board proxy. The UE sends mobile originated (MO) voice and data to the proxy in a packaged data set and receives mobile terminated voice and data from the remote endpoints also as a packaged data set. When the SV has a feeder link, the proxy forwards the packaged MO data set to a second proxy in an S&F center. The second proxy may unpackage the packaged MO data set and forward the MO data to the remote endpoints or forward the packaged MO data set for unpackaging by a remote endpoint. The packaging can significantly reduce SV access time by the UE.
