Speaking of satellites, I think everyone must be familiar with them, especially in recent years, satellites have become a discussion among technology enthusiasts. Last month, Huawei launched the Mate50 series. In order to make this series more highlighted, Huawei also added the function of satellite communication. Huawei's Mate50 series mobile phones can be connected to the Beidou satellite and contact the outside world through satellites without network signals.
, coinciding with the Apple iPhone 14 series released last month, satellite communication technology was also added. However, this time the satellite function in iphone14 cannot be used in China, and satellites can only be connected in North America. Therefore, at present, only Huawei's Mate50 series can use satellite communication functions in the country.
Many people have a problem. What is the significance of satellites being manufactured at any cost and successfully launched into the sky? The addition of satellite communication function to the mobile phone means that the future of the 6G era will not be too far away?
Musk's Starlink Plan
I believe everyone is familiar with Musk's plan. Some people joke that Musk made Tesla in fact just to build Rockets. Although this sentence sounds like a joke, it is actually correct. In Musk's interview, we can feel that Musk's dream is space. He doesn't seem to care how much Tesla's car is sold. Tesla is just one of his many industries. Not long ago, Musk also planned to acquire "Twitter", which is enough to see how crazy Musk is.
Now Musk is about to form a Starlink plan. Even when the weather is in good condition, you can use an aviation telescope or a high-power camera to take photos and see Musk's Starlink , just like a long dragon, which is quite obvious.
Musk's starlink is actually an exploration project. They expect to launch 12,000 starlinks in space in 2024 and form starlinks, with the purpose of making everyone feel better network services and information services. After actual testing, the current service download speed of Starlink can reach 300Mbps, which is still very fast.
However, the Starlink plans are not all good. First of all, the starlinks densely in space and surrounding the earth will affect people landing in space to explore the universe; in addition, the Starlinks may also be used for military activities, which poses a threat to the national security strategy and space military. Although the Exploration Plan company stated that Starlinks will not be used for military activities, people are not at ease.
satellite promotes the 6G network
If you want to know the role of satellites on 6G network, you must first know how far the 6G network will develop. The ultimate goal of implementing 6G network is to achieve global coverage of the world integration, which means that high-speed network signals can be searched in every corner of the world, and they can be used in national defense, technology, industry and other aspects.
It can be said that the satellite communication technology function is not very effective for mobile phone users, but it is of great significance to mobile phone manufacturers, communication operators and various companies. Through satellite technology, communication consumption of base stations can be reduced and network connection speed can be improved.
final summary
As we all know, my country can be far ahead in the technology of 5G network , and has also mastered the right to speak from a global communication perspective and has been recognized. Therefore, the development of 6G network is the direction that should be paid attention to at present. Not being behind in technology, achieving technological awareness and implementation, so that future mobile phones can use China's satellites and networks is an important part of our realization of a technologically powerful country.
