Equipment for Mobile Satellite Communications and TV Receiving Developed by China

Equipment for mobile satellite communications and TV receiving has lately been developed by Chongqing Bashan Instruments Plant. Sources say this result has filled up the gap for the receivers carried on cars, trains, ships and other mobile conveyances to trace the synchronized satellites and the technology has reached the world advanced level.

This system adopted laser gyroscopic controlling and guiding system, remote measurement and global GPS technology. Only few countries in the world have mastered this technology and it is able to seek and trace satellites automatically.

As reported the system can be applied to many fields. It can be installed on ships, trains and cars, through which we can watch TV or graphic TV programs transmitted by synchronized terrestrial satellites while the carriers are on the move or watch TV programs from a different satellite. It can be used for sound, data, fax and image transmission. It also has a secret-keeping function and at war times it can be used on commanding cars by adding onto it an adjustable antenna with a protective cover.
