Opencell.Space the World’s first
100% mobile coverage solution
directly from Space to ANY phone
Air@wave CEO/CTO Paris Michaels is the original inventor (2015 patents) of the World’s first mobile satellite communication system for connecting low Earth orbit satellites directly to unmodified, 2G/3G/4G/5G standard phones.
Marketed as Opencell.Space, Air@wave is commercializing the system globally (with MNO partners) to address all the under-served populations in remote or regional areas. The US$1.1 trillion mobile services market comprises 5.4 billion phones and 11B IoT (Internet of things) devices.
A decade ahead of its time in 2015, Opencell.Space direct to device technology is now recognized as “the largest opportunity in the history of satellite communications” by industry analysts Northern Sky Research/Analysys Mason.
Direct 4G/5G mobile service from a satellite in orbit to standard, unmodified phones without any new hardware or software has now been demonstrated successfully for text, voice, video and mobile broadband.
