In response to the growing need of our customers to track and monitor valuable assets, Globalstar is pleased to offer a basic simplex data service package. Globalstar is launching the Quick Locate Service with two available simplex devices. These units are programmed with the ability to send 6 GPS location reports per day. In addition, the devices have one digital port/input which can be used to provide customers with additional monitoring and event-driven capabilities as required. The reports will then be available for customers to access via the Quick Locate Service on the Globalstar website.
How Simplex Technology Works
- Simplex messages are transmitted via the Globalstar low-earth orbit satellite network, using an uplink-only connection (one-way data transmission).
- Multiple messages are sent over several minutes at each transmission interval to ensure reception. Once the Globalstar system confirms a message it ensures repeats are deleted for efficiency. Customer only pays for first confirmed message.
