Abstract
A wireless communication system includes one or more application servers communicating with remote terminals over connections established via cellular or satellite networks. The application servers are capable of switching between different cellular networks. A satellite gateway communicates with the remote terminals via satellite connections when cellular service is unavailable. The satellite gateway emulates a cellular network so that the application server sees the satellite gateway as another cellular network.
