An American company is projected to overcome these two telecom behemoths, reliance jio Infocomm Limited (owned by mukesh Ambani) and Bharti airtel Limited (owned by sunil Mittal). As of right present, jio and airtel are the two largest companies in the mobile communication and high-speed internet data sectors. Both of them provide cutting-edge services at affordable costs, such as OTT platforms and 5g networks.
 
However, it all appears to be coming to an end shortly!

A brand-new satellite communication service called "direct-to-cell" has been introduced by Elon Musk's SpaceX firm, Starlink. Users will be able to attach their cellphones straight to Starlink's satellites using this technology. This implies that traditional mobile towers won't be necessary, and internet and phone coverage will be accessible even in locations where telecom providers haven't been able to set up cell towers.
 
In addition to the debut of Starlink's direct-to-cell service, the SpaceX team announced alliances with several significant telecom firms. In a post, Elon Musk personally attested to this list.
 
Over the past few months, Starlink has been steadily growing its network of satellite communications. To boost the pace, the business is always launching new rockets and placing more satellites. TweakTown reports that customers are currently enjoying internet speeds between 250 and 350 Mbps. This is far faster than the 50–60 Mbps fiber speeds that are available in South Australia.
 
Without a doubt, Starlink's new service is a singular accomplishment in satellite communication. No type of cell tower will be needed by the service that gives the smartphone a direct link to the satellite. As a result, communication services will be readily accessible even in places without current coverage.
 
To improve connection globally, SpaceX is continuously launching additional satellites. The service provides text messaging, calling, and data capabilities without the need for additional gear or apps by merging satellite technology with the current mobile network.
 
Direct-to-cell technology has the potential to be extremely helpful in emergencies in addition to increasing mobile coverage. Usually, there is a problem like a mobile tower collapsing, a wiring issue, or a malfunction when a calamity like an earthquake or cyclone strikes. However, if the phones are linked to the satellite network, the connection will continue to function even at the catastrophe scene, and instant access to emergency services help would be provided.

The direct-to-cell connection will provide access to millions of Internet of Things (IoT) devices in addition to increasing mobile coverage. According to SpaceX, this technique does not require any additional or unique hardware to link devices. In the event of an emergency, users will still have unbroken connectivity, particularly while they are going through dead zones or rural regions.
 
At the moment, SpaceX is producing sophisticated rockets and spacecraft. Additionally, Elon Musk's business is deploying Starlink satellites using rockets and spacecraft. SpaceX's Falcon 9 rocket and Starship are now scheduled to launch direct-to-cell satellites.
 
The future of technology will undoubtedly be drastically altered if Elon Musk's invention becomes successful. The telecom sector would be significantly impacted, and the need for mobile towers may eventually decline.
 
Starlink is a satellite internet provider that offers high-speed internet access in over 100 nations. Wherever there is a clear view of the sky, Starlink can function, unlike cable-based broadband services.
