China’s new aerospace plan: China will build the first "space-based Internet of Things"

  Cctv newsThe space-based Internet composed of satellites will enable us to access the network anytime and anywhere, and to realize the "Internet of Everything", we need another network — — "Internet of Things", the reporter learned from the space summit forum that China will build the first "space-based Internet of Things" system, and two experimental verification satellites will be launched at the end of this year.

  China’s first "space-based Internet of Things" was named "Cloud Project". By constructing a constellation system of 80 low-orbit communication satellites, the advantages of communication satellites such as "global coverage, long communication distance, large communication capacity and low cost" will be brought into play, and all kinds of intelligent terminals such as information nodes and sensors around the world will be effectively connected to form a global Internet of Things information system.

  Space-based Internet of Things is a powerful supplement to the ground Internet of Things in areas where ground signals cannot be covered. Besides container ocean transportation, it can also be used in many industrial fields such as ocean island communication, oil and electricity supervision, agricultural machinery data collection and transportation, and construction machinery information transmission.
