China Satellite Networking Constellation Realization _ Satellite Internet Constellation

National satellite WIFI may be online, is the router really worthless?

Enter the password and connect to WiFi. Friends of these operations are no strangers. As smartphones enter thousands of households, the demand for traffic from small partners can be described as rising. I don't know when our life began to be inseparable from WiFi. Using WiFi to surf the Internet at home, shopping for free WiFi, asking for WiFi password at dinner, and finding a high-speed and easy-to-use WiFi network seem to be the top priority for everyone to go out.

Whenever I can't find WiFi outside, Xiaohe always thinks that if there is a WiFi signal falling from the sky, I can swim the Internet anytime and anywhere. How wonderful! It's always good to have a dream, in case it comes true. No, Blackie's fantasy of entertaining himself is coming true.

China's first private satellite will be launched by the Long March rocket series at Jiuquan Satellite Launch Center next year. The whole constellation aims to provide free satellite network for the whole world in 2026. Users will be able to access the satellite network and realize one-click Internet access. According to reports, compared with the existing network operators, there are still many areas not covered by the ground network. According to the information released by the United Nations last year, by the end of 20 17, there are still 3.9 billion users in the world who can't connect to the internet, and many terrains on the earth, such as oceans and deserts, can't lay network infrastructure in these areas, so if satellites are used, the network can cover all regions of the world.

Therefore, the national satellite WIFI may really be launched, but the router will not be worthless, because at present, our Internet access function is mainly supported by the three major operators of China Mobile, China Unicom and China Telecom. If the project is successful, it will definitely involve the interests of the three major operators. Is it legal? To say the least, these problems have been solved. The whole world uses the same wifi satellite system to surf the Internet, which is equivalent to a large public WIFI. How can we guarantee our privacy, especially when this data is still huge? If it is used for other purposes, the consequences are unimaginable.

The private enterprise that launched the WIFI satellite into space this time is Lianshang Network Technology Co., Ltd., which may seem strange at first glance, but everyone below the company should be familiar with its master key. Lianshang Network is a global mobile Internet unicorn enterprise, established on 20 13, with the mission of bridging the digital divide and the vision of making people all over the world surf the Internet for free.

Before developing this WIFi satellite, Lian Shang was focusing on making a free WIFI master key. Since the launch of 20 12, the master key has more than 900 million monthly active users, so it seems not so abrupt to combine Lianshang's statement that it will launch wifi satellites and provide free wifi to the whole world. According to official sources, the free wifi system of Lianshang Network consists of 272 satellites. The first satellite will be launched in 20 19, and all satellites will be launched before 2026.
