Five times faster than Starlink in Chinese internet
China has surpassed Starlink's speed. The country's satellite internet has achieved five times the speed of Starlink. This information was reported in a report by Business Byte Pakistan 2 days ago.
The report said that China has achieved a breakthrough in satellite internet technology. The country's satellite is providing internet five times faster than Elon Musk's Starlink.
A satellite located 36 thousand kilometers above the Earth has achieved a speed of 1 gigabit per second (Gbps) using a laser transmission of just 2 watts, which is much better than Starlink's low-orbit satellite fleet.
Business Byte Pakistan said that laser signals are usually distorted due to atmospheric turbulence. As a result, it hinders fast and reliable data transfer.
To solve this problem, Chinese scientists Professor Wu Jian and Dr. Liu Chao has developed a novel AO-MDR (Adaptive Optics Mode Division Receiver) technology.
This technology uses 357 micro-mirrors to reshape the distorted laser beam and improve the signal accuracy through a multi-plane light converter and real-time path-picking algorithm.
This new technological breakthrough has opened up new possibilities for global internet connectivity. The higher orbit and use of cutting-edge laser technology compared to Starlink have put China at the forefront of satellite-based internet.
