How it works ?
On-Waves service will be manually switched-on as soon as the aircraft reaches 10.000 feet, following ITU and GSMA rules and recommendations. Upon activation passengers will receive a Welcome SMS announcing service availability.
Calls are routed from the aircraft to the terrestrial gateway of your Satcom provider and from this point directly to our own core network for call processing.
On-Waves terrestrial links connect to all major Gateways, both for Satellite connectivity purposes, as well as for International GSM, GPRS, EDGE and CDMA call terminations. All links are redundant.
Mobile phones will display “On-Waves” as the network service provider.
On-Waves–specific roaming agreements, under full compliance with BARG46 regulations and linked to our platform, offer worldwide coverage On-Waves, in-air and on-land.
