Abstract
A reconfigurable satellite access point including a transport-mounting structure and at least one antenna integrated with the transport-mounting structure, the transport-mounting structure allowing the satellite access point to be easily reconfigured between a shipping configuration and an deployed configuration, the satellite access point in the shipping configuration having a form factor of a shipping container which allows the satellite access point to be shipped to a remote satellite access site on earth and the satellite access point in the deployed configuration revealing the at least one antenna to the sky at the satellite access site. Further, a method for constructing and rapidly deploying a satellite access site, the method including integrating at least one antenna with a transport-mounting structure to create a satellite access point, configuring the satellite access point into a shipping configuration wherein the satellite access point has a form factor of a shipping container, shipping the satellite access point to a desired location on earth for the satellite access site, and reconfiguring the satellite access point into an deployed configuration at the satellite access site to reveal the at least one antenna to the sky.
