.Catherine's plan to write a book is temporarily impossible.

Just when Catherine was excitedly preparing to write a book, a big client approached Catherine.

The reason why they are called "big customers" is because these people who come to us are from the United Nations Maritime Organization.

The International Maritime Organization (IMO) is a specialized agency of the United Nations responsible for maritime navigation safety and the prevention of marine pollution caused by ships. It is headquartered in London. The organization was first established on January 6, 1959, formerly known as the "Intergovernmental Maritime Consultative Organization"

"It was changed to its current name in May 1982, and by October 2006, it had 167 official members.

Of course, now they are still called "Intergovernmental Maritime Consultative Organization".

"Hello, Mr. Howard." Catherine greeted the other party with a smile in the living room.

"Hello, Miss Edson." The other party was a man in his fifties.

In order to show respect for the United Nations, Catherine did not wear a skirt today, but put on a one-step skirt, a small suit and sexy stockings, which is considered a standard ol dress. Her hair is now tied behind her back, but her tail is

Duan still had a large part of her long hair hanging behind her back, and she also put on a pair of flat black-rimmed glasses.

Now Catherine's whole temperament seems to have changed from a lively girl to a stable working woman.

"Although we think this matter can be explained through letters, I think it is better for us to talk about it in person," the other party said.

"I think we would be very happy to do something for the United Nations." Catherine said with a smile.

After a while of pleasantries, the other party explained the reason for this visit.

"I think you also know that our organization is responsible for the safety of maritime navigation. However, ships sailing on the sea are always likely to encounter emergencies. If something terrible happens at this time, I

I think this is probably something no one wants to see.

This is true.

But...does this have anything to do with us?

"We learned that US Cellular's cell phones are a great communications system."

This technology that Catherine admitted directly skipped the analog era and entered the cdma era is indeed the world's most advanced technology. Hedy Lamarr's technology is indeed more powerful than her career in Hollywood.

But...does this have anything to do with IMO?

"I think you must be very confused about why I want to talk about this matter. In fact, we are looking for exactly this kind of communication equipment. We need a telephone system that can communicate on the sea. I think your company should

There is a way to solve this problem.”

"You mean satellite communication?" Catherine was stunned for a moment.

"Ah, yes, that's it. I have seen these things in your "Information Revolution" and the report of American Mobile Company."

Communication satellites, or what these people need should be maritime satellites. This kind of global communication satellite is mentioned in Catherine's Information Revolution. However, Catherine is not optimistic about this method, so the definition of satellite communication in the article is more detailed.

Most of them are related to national strategies. However, in the US mobile company, there is a specific explanation of this series of plans.

Of course, Catherine's plan was not for herself to do, but to prepare to deceive others.

In the 1990s, Motorola suffered a big fall because of the "Yixing Project..." which was a communication network that could cover the whole world. It would be perfect if it could defeat Motorola or another potential enemy now.

So Catherine's plan is quite detailed.

The so-called Iridium satellite system is a global mobile communications system designed by the American company Motorola. Its sky part is a satellite running in a descending orbit. There are 11 satellites evenly distributed on each orbit to form a complete constellation. They are like chemical satellites.

The elements revolve around the 77 electrons outside the nucleus, so they are called Yi stars. Later, calculations confirmed that 6 orbits were enough, so the total number of satellites was reduced to 66, but they were still called Yi stars.

Catherine has thought about some things about the Yixing Project more than once.

Catherine thought about it over and over, but in the end she discovered that such a plan was not feasible, but it might not be easy to implement, and she might even lose her basic cdma disk.

So Catherine thought of the best way to use the Yixing plan to deceive people.

Whether it’s Motorola or any other company, it’s the one that can be tricked.

One of the important reasons for the failure of Motorola's star-studded plan is gsm

And the maturity of cdma technology. Catherine now has cdma, which obviously has more commercial value.

Now whoever is involved in the Yixing Project, Catherine promises to trap the other party and then trap him to death. Speaking of which, Catherine and Motorola once conducted patent cross-licensing. Even if Catherine uses Motorola's technology now, there won't be much of a problem.

In a sense, even if Catherine really builds a satellite, it won't be a problem. Technically, it is not a problem at all. The only problem is just the cost.

Just after the IMO man named Howard finished what he just said, Catherine was also making plans.

At present, satellites are still in their infancy. This thing seems to have huge potential, but Catherine also knows that the international strategic application of satellites is more powerful than its commercial value.

Of course, satellites also have strong commercial value. The simplest of them is satellite TV. In China in the 1990s, it would be absolutely amazing if a TV station could "go to the stars". But Catherine

I don’t know what satellite TV is like in the United States.

Catherine knows a little bit about communication satellites, especially maritime satellites. But as far as Catherine knows, those are very few, so Catherine can only rely on sporadic information about the future and information about the present that she has.

Analyze the matter with examples.

"Can you explain this matter in detail?" Catherine still wanted to hear the other party explain the problem in detail.

"Yes. We need a satellite communication equipment, and this technology seems to be only owned by your Ark Group. Our purpose is for the safety of voyagers around the world. In this plan, we are preparing to use a

Communication satellites for radio communication between sea and land serve as carriers. This kind of maritime satellite should integrate global maritime conventional communications, distress and safety communications, and special and combat readiness communications."

Catherine nodded.

Historically, in 1976, the United States successively launched maritime satellites in geostationary orbits, each located at 15 degrees west longitude in the Atlantic Ocean, east longitude Pacific Ocean and east longitude Indian Ocean, forming a global maritime satellite communication network.

Three satellites cover more than 90% of the world's scope and areas. This is the earliest satellite communication system.

"This is about this communication satellite...?"

"Yes, we hope that US mobile companies can support us in completing some related work."

Catherine thought for a while, and it seemed that there were no undisputed interests in this, and the profits were pitifully small. Catherine felt that it would be better to just stop this matter. After all, this level has risen to the level between countries.

The relationship has reached a certain depth. If Catherine wants to enter, she must take her time.

At this time, the other party said: "We are planning to establish a maritime satellite organization. We will position this organization as an intergovernmental cooperation agency that provides global satellite mobile communications, that is, the International Mobile Satellite Organization. If possible, we will

It is necessary to develop it into a global, all-weather,

Agency for comprehensive public communications and distress safety communications services..."

The ideal is lofty, but compared to the current reality, Catherine does not think it can be realized in twenty or thirty years.

However, this does not mean that Catherine cannot borrow the east wind.

For example, if a mobile phone user is at sea and there is no signal at this time, but he wants to make a call, what should he do?

It would be convenient if equipment capable of connecting to maritime satellites was installed on this ship. The ship would directly transmit data and messages to the satellite, and then the satellite would feed back to the nearest receiving device, and then pass it on to the recipient...

...That's it.

Catherine found that her wishful thinking was really good.

"Well, regarding specific matters, I will ask US Mobile to come up with a plan... By the way, IMO, can you also hand over the plan to us? I think it will have a beneficial impact on our plan.

."

"Well, that's not a problem."

Since the late 1960s, the IMO has considered using satellites to provide ships with reliable maritime distress safety and business communications, thus changing the situation where radio short-wave communications are severely affected by weather.

In history, after studying at many international conferences, they adopted the "Intermarsat Convention" and the "Intermarsat Operations Agreement" in 1976, which came into effect in 1979, and the government was established in July of the same year.

International Maritime Satellite Organization, an international economic cooperation organization, and has developed rapidly

, its business covers the world, and its number of member states has grown from more than 20 at the beginning to 89. It aims to provide global, full-time, all-weather maritime satellite security and business communication services for maritime ships, thereby helping to improve and improve maritime distress

The efficiency and management level of rescue, ship command and dispatch and maritime public communications...

It is worth mentioning that China is also the founder of the Maritime Satellite Organization.

However, with the acceleration of scientific and technological development, the development of IMO has also accelerated. Two updates~!
