Jio Satellite Internet: Ambani’s space preparations intensified, high-speed internet will reach across the country through 1600 satellites
Tezzbuzz Desk- A big change can be seen in the field of internet connectivity in India. Reliance Jio is now preparing to provide high-speed internet through space. The company’s proposal to deploy about 1600 Low Earth Orbit i.e. LEO satellites has been considered technically correct by the space regulator IN-SPACe. After this approval, Jio’s satellite internet project is being considered an important step towards moving forward.
This plan of Jio can help in providing high-speed internet in India to those areas where fiber network or mobile tower is currently difficult to reach. This move is also being seen as a possible competition with Elon Musk’s company Starlink.
Preparation of network of 1600 LEO satellites
According to media reports, IN-SPACe has made a technical evaluation of Reliance Jio’s proposal to install about 1600 low earth orbit satellites. ISRO and the Wireless Planning and Coordination Wing of the Department of Telecommunications have also played a role in this process. After getting the approval, the company can get government support in the further process to acquire orbital slots at the international level. Jio has also started preparations for the rights related to International Telecommunication Union i.e. ITU.
Starlink will meet the challenge
At present, Elon Musk’s company Starlink dominates the field of satellite internet. Starlink has a network of thousands of satellites around the world. At the same time, with the preparation of Jio’s indigenous LEO satellite network in India, the country can reduce its dependence on foreign companies. According to reports, Jio is planning to provide internet capacity of around 4.5 to 5 terabit per second in India. The company aims to provide fast and reliable connectivity across the country.
What services is Jio preparing?
Reliance Jio is planning to provide many types of services through its satellite network. High-speed broadband Internet. Satellite backhaul service for mobile networks. Direct-to-device connectivity. Internet facility in remote areas. The company is also working on a plan to build about 20 to 22 ground stations, so that the satellite network can be operated in a better way.
The biggest benefit of satellite internet can be found in those areas where fiber network is difficult to reach. People living in hilly areas, forests and island areas can also get high-speed internet facility. This technology can strengthen digital connectivity in Uttarakhand, North-Eastern states and other inaccessible areas.
You will get benefit even in times of disaster
The specialty of satellite internet is that it can prove useful even during natural disasters. Satellite connectivity can help maintain communications in case of floods, earthquakes or cyclones when mobile towers and ground-based networks are affected.
Common customers can get cheap internet
Reliance Jio is known for its affordable services. In such a situation, it is believed that if the company enters the satellite internet market, then customers can get high-speed internet at competitive prices. However, official information regarding the launch of the service, price and availability has not yet been revealed by the company.
