Gps competitive market around the world

Mitsubishi Space Software Company also intends to "lead" the use of satellite signals to guide system. If the location accuracy improved to within one meter, tourists attractions and shops stood before their profiles and menus can be displayed.

GPS popular "starting from the stove"

    The military value of the satellite positioning has not said, and in the economic level, only from the mobile phone with satellite navigation, the expected market size in 2012 to 1,000 billion U.S. dollars. In order to break the U.S. monopoly in the field of satellite positioning, countries are sparing no effort. Although the countries have international cooperation in satellite positioning sounding, but the national interest is still the main obstacle to cooperation among countries, so since the development of satellite positioning from the kitchen into the main theme.

    Japan: 2001 Japan began to develop their own "Quasi-Zenith Satellite System." The launch of the "Guide" is being developed satellite to the "quasi-zenith satellite system", the system consists of three signal coverage in Japan's high-precision positioning satellites. Japan's space agency will assess the "Guide" on the basis of satellite capabilities, to launch two positioning satellites.

    EU: In 2003, when he was French President Jacques Chirac and Germany's then Chancellor Gerhard Schroeder decided to create a "multipolar world" and develop their own satellite positioning system, to balance America's GPS. "Galileo" program along with the introduction. But on the apportionment of funds within the EU have been quarreling, in the launch of the two "Galileo" Star experiment, the relevant progress very slowly, until 2008 the EU to solve the problem of funding the scheme is on the right track. In addition, the EU has, together with China and other countries involved in "Galileo" program, due to technology transfer, resource conflicts, firing frequency, the Chinese finally focus on their own "Big Dipper" and positioning systems.

    Russia: The Director of the Russian Federal Space Perminov, said on June 1st, this year launched seven satellites, the "GLONASS" satellite navigation system will be fully in place. Current "GLONASS" system the total number of 23 satellites in orbit, including 21 work, the other two on standby.

    China: August 1 will be the fifth satellites "Compass" navigation satellite into space orbit successfully, marking the "Compass" satellite navigation system has taken an important step in network construction. Expected in 2020, "Compass" navigation satellite system will form a global reach, so as to safeguard national security and promoting economic and social development to provide important protection.

    India: Indian Space Research Organization spokesman in April that India plans to launch its first navigation satellite next year, for the end of 2014 to complete its deployment of space satellite navigation network.

Satellite positioning to the global "addiction"

    Develop its own positioning system, in addition to reducing Europe's dependence on U.S. military and technology, but also profitable. From a business perspective, to use the U.S. GPS global positioning system, will buy U.S. signal reception equipment, such as the Airbus of Europe must be fully dependent on the U.S. system. With Europe's own satellite positioning system, the European aerospace industry can develop its own satellites to locate the user, and sell equipment. European R & D of the "Galileo" satellite positioning system is expected to reach market size in 2020 tens of billions of euros. No wonder the strength of the countries want to develop their own satellite positioning system.

    With the rapid development of information technology, more and more dependent on global navigation satellite, almost form a "addicted" to the situation. From mobile phones to cars, navigation systems has become an essential configuration. Any of a large country will understand the tremendous role in the future navigation systems.
