China Telecom was not allowed to be the only United States, and China Mobile launched its first satellite
On February 3, China Mobile successfully sent nine satellites to Yangjiang, Guangdong, including China Mobile 01, which is responsible for testing the 5 G "ground-space-ground" fusion mission, marking that China has entered a new stage of the "satellite communication race".
Satellite communication has been a new way of domestic mobile **, a Chinese technology company has released a mobile ** with satellite communication function, many domestic intelligent ** has also added this feature to their flagship models, driving the development of satellite communication business.
China Telecom was the first to open satellite communication services, because China Mobile has a large number of high-end customers, so they choose to use satellite communications, because they want to get more support in the most critical time.
In the past two years, China Telecom has indeed gained a great leading position in China Mobile's mobile phone business, and the number of new registered customers has exceeded several times. As China Telecom has surpassed China Mobile in terms of the number of new customers, the competitive advantage between the two companies is also gradually decreasing.
China Mobile is in the field of mobile communications, although China Telecom's customer scale is only equivalent to 40% of the mobile company, but its catch-up speed is still very slow, which has brought great challenges to China Mobile, the boss, especially as China Mobile has been decreasing customers for several months, China Mobile is building its own competitive advantage at the same time, it is also urgent to develop its own satellite services.
The successful launch of China Mobile's satellite indicates that China Mobile will soon launch a series of satellite communication services to fill the shortcomings in this area and maintain the optimal telecommunication services of China Telecom's network with the help of the optimal coverage of 4 5 G.
In addition, China Mobile's entry into the field of satellite communications will also strengthen China's competitiveness in the field of international low-orbit satellite communications, which will help China gain advantages in future space development and utilization.
According to international practice, who owns the ownership of low-earth orbit space, the United States is currently vigorously developing space, especially "Starlink", so that the United States has a short-term advantage in near-earth orbit, and the country is also actively promoting enterprises to participate in the battle for space resources in low orbit, China Mobile is accelerating to seize, strong capital, into this field, will become a strong competitive force. China Mobile has invested in the field of satellite communications with its strong capital and abundant capital, and will surely become a strong competitor.
In addition, China Mobile's satellite will further confirm the integration of 5G and satellite communications, making China's 5G network the world's most complete 5G network, with the number of 5G base stations about 60% of the world.
The importance of China's satellite launch through mobile means goes far beyond its own scope, which can not only enhance China's competitiveness in the telecommunications industry and help China achieve certain advantages in medium and low orbit satellite communications, but more importantly, it has an important role in China's high-tech industry and China's position in emerging technologies, and has important practical significance.
