The working of satellite phone is is very simple.

When an individual makes a call from a satellite phone the signal is sent to the satellites of that particular company. These satellites process the call and relay it back to Earth via a gateway. The gateway then routes the call to its destination using the regular PSTN(Public switched Telephone Network).
Globalstar,Iridium are some of the company which provide satellite phone services.
NOTE**The Globalstar constellation is made up of 48 satellites and every call is relayed by up to 4 satellites down to Globalstar gateways on Earth.
So now don't worry of network problem.
