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. The customer only pays for first confirmed message.
 
Simplex Communication:
1-way communication from asset
Endpoint sends message redundantly to increase throughput
Endpoint has TX hardware (L-band)
Enables: Battery-operated packet-telemetry applications, scalable to millions of devices
Poor for: Voice, remote control, 2-way data
Duplex Communication:
2-way communication to and from asset
Endpoint must negotiate for channel capacity
Endpoint has TX and RX hardware (L-band & C-band)
Enables: Voice, remote control, 2-way data
Poor for: Battery-operated applications, uses channel capacity, not scalable to large numbers of endpoints
