创始人2019-02-16
Yang Changfeng, chief designer of the Beidou navigation satellite system, said that after the satellite is launched into orbit, it will conduct in orbit testing and test evaluation, and conduct networking and performance index evaluation with the 17 previously launched Beidou-3 navigation satellites. It will be put into operation before the end of the year to provide basic navigation services to countries and regions along the "the Belt and Road". Taking a "crucial step" for China's Beidou from domestic to international and from regional to global.2018 was an extraordinary year in the history of Beidou's development. Within one year, 10 arrows and 19 satellites were launched, setting a new record for the construction of world satellite navigation systems and the launch of the same type of space program in China. Ran Chengqi stated that as of now, Beidou has been widely used and is going abroad to benefit the world. According to Ran Chengqi, there are 6.17 million road operating vehicles, 35600 postal and express delivery vehicles, 80000 buses in 36 central cities, 3230 inland navigation facilities, and 2960 maritime navigation facilities using Beidou in China. The Hong Kong Zhuhai Macao Bridge adopts the Beidou high-precision deformation monitoring system to ensure safe operation. Most smartphones sold domestically support Beidou. There are over 2 million Beidou pre installed vehicles. The intelligent driving car based on Beidou high-precision is expected to be launched in 2019. Beidou has served countries such as Russia, Myanmar, Laos, Cambodia, Thailand, Indonesia, Pakistan, Kuwait, Algeria, Uganda, etc., and has gained a good reputation.China's Beidou, along with the United States' GPS, Russia's GLONASS, and Europe's Galileo, are collectively known as the four major satellite navigation systems in the world. Compared to the well-known GPS, Ran Chengqi pointed out that Beidou's short message and location reporting feature services are not available in the other three systems.Ran Chengqi said, "We have greatly improved the performance of such functions, so that navigation and communication technology can be well integrated into one system. It can be said that the other three major systems have good performance, and our Beidou system also has it. We also hope to promote the development of our respective systems through cooperation
