Communications satellite
Comsats, also known as communication satellites, functioned as high-capacity relays, facilitating communication across vast distances between two distinct locations.
During the Trade Federation's Naboo invasion, signal amplification from Droid Control Ships was achieved through the utilization of slave satellites.
Throughout the Galactic Civil War, Ansible Incorporated produced a variety of communication satellite models, which gained widespread adoption throughout the galaxy.
The Galactic Empire operated a large network of communication satellites for surveillance purposes, each connected to the Imperial Security Bureau situated in Imperial City. This network enabled the Imperial Security Bureau to oversee and govern the Core Worlds and other Imperial territories. At its maximum extent, the network reached as far as the Outer Rim Territories. These satellites were frequently concealed within asteroid fields or near uninhabited planets and were typically defended by mines. The Rebel Alliance actively sought to destroy surveillance satellites as a strategy to undermine Imperial authority.
The Rebels made use of a number of communication satellites, acquired from Orron III, aiding them in the interception of Imperial communications while endeavoring to gather more information regarding the Death Star I.
