Chapter 114 The radio waves of my hometown

at the same time.

The test did not stop at home, and all insensitive areas around the world were conducting tests secretly.

On Pritz Bay in Antarctica, August in the northern hemisphere is sunny summer, while Antarctica in the southern hemisphere is ice and snowy winter.

The icebreaker tore open the ice layer on the sea and approached Zhongshan Station.

Because the ice layer is too thick, the icebreaker can only advance about five kilometers away from Zhongshan Station, then dock and unload a large number of supplies.

The scientific expedition team at Zhongshan Station was already waiting for them nearby, and then used a sled truck to pull the supplies back to Zhongshan Station.

During the blizzard, the convoy was hit by the strong and biting wind, leaving scratches on the ice, and at this moment, there was only a vast white area left between the world.

The members of the scientific expedition team were wearing thick down jackets and sunglasses to prevent snow blindness. The blizzard became heavier and heavier, and the sky began to darken, and aurora appeared in the air.

The polar night in Antarctica is enveloping this continent, but the latitude of Zhongshan Station is near 69 degrees south latitude, and it is not the highest scientific research station. The truly dark scientific research station is Amundsen Scott Station, the US scientific research station located at the South Pole.

Seeing the hazy Zhongshan Station lights, the members of the scientific expedition team breathed a sigh of relief. Antarctica in winter was not only a blizzard, extreme night, but also a terrifying low temperature environment.

"Hu!" He let out a breath of silence. The webmaster looked at the supplies in the warehouse and then breathed a sigh of relief. He picked up the supply list and counted these things.

Suddenly he found some electronic devices on the list.

There are 30 mobile phones, 15 laptops, and 6 micro base stations.

"Why are you sending your mobile phone and laptop here for something? There is also a base station?" Deputy Webmaster Xiao Nanfeng looked at the list and asked in surprise.

Antarctica's networks use satellite communication maritime lines, with a speed of about 5m per second, and can only make phone calls.

Originally, Telecom was going to come to Zhongshan Station to build a 3G base station this year, but it was suddenly cancelled.

Anyone who has been to Antarctica knows that the network here is not only slow, but also sometimes without it. It is disconnected at any time. It also charges very expensive, and a phone call may cost more than 500 yuan.

Webmaster Zhang Chengcai also looked weird, but after he continued to look, he realized that this was a test project for testing satellite communications.

"Yansen."

"Zhang Zhan, what's the matter?" A young man in his early twenties rushed out from one side.

Zhang Chengcai patted the box and said, "I'll give you a task to install these two base stations."

After the "base station" Jansen opened the box, there were indeed two router-like devices inside, as well as some spare parts such as transformers and wires and cables.

He pulled out the instruction manual and installed the two base stations on the east and west sides of Zhongshan Station according to the instructions, and then turned on the switch.

"What about the signal?" Yang Sen himself had a Nokia phone, but found that there was no signal at all, and it was still the same after shutting down and restarting.

After taking out the instruction manual and carefully looking through it, he realized that this was an experimental product and did not support communications outside of terahertz.

I quickly took out a mobile phone from another box, which was a brand new smartphone. Considering the Antarctic weather, there was also a pair of touch screen gloves inside the mobile phone box.

After putting on the touch screen gloves, he found that the smartphone did not have a SIM card socket and did not provide a SIM card. In this case, he had to ask for help from the manual.

"So the SIM card has been cancelled." Yang Sen talked to himself while following the instructions, directly binding his ID card through his ID card.

After entering the mobile phone interface, I finally found a signal this time.

xk346g...What the hell is the memory he looks at the very few apps and tries to open the Citizen House.

Hey, so fast! How is it possible

He didn't believe in evil and opened a video website and played an old movie directly, but the result was very smooth, and there was no lag or buffering at all.

Could it be that the local storage was puzzled by Yang Sen, who tried to call the phone at home to see if this satellite communication could be used?

After a few seconds.

"Who are you feeding" is the mother's voice.

He didn't care about exploring satellite communications and quickly replied excitedly: "Mom, it's me."

"Xiao Sen" mother asked uncertainly.

After talking for more than ten minutes, my mother in China confirmed that the phone was Yang Sen. After hanging up the phone, he was so surprised at the phone in his hand.

But he suddenly realized and quickly opened the fee inquiry, don't cheat people! After all, he can know the Internet fees in Antarctica very well, several hundred yuan a minute.

Dear users, since this service is in the trial operation stage and there are no charges yet, please fill in the user experience in the series of forms, and the company will continue to improve the relevant services...

"Awesome!" Yang Sen quickly filled out the user experience form.

Then he took his cell phone and ran towards the webmaster Zhang Chengcai.

"Yansen, it's installed"

"Okay." Yang Sen paused and continued: "Zhang Zhan, find a good thing, look."

After saying that, he turned on his phone, played the movie, and went to other websites.

"This..." Zhang Chengcai looked at the mobile phone page in amazement. Whoever uses the Antarctic network knows how to do this mobile phone

Yang Sen quickly explained, Zhang Chengcai and others took out the other 9 mobile phones and 5 laptops assigned to them. After a trial, they found that this terahertz communication was really awesome.

Everyone quickly took their cell phones to call their relatives in China to relieve their longing.

In this dark Antarctica ice field, loneliness is a problem that everyone must face, and the emergence of terahertz communication made them very excited, and they finally no longer need to endure the expensive and scam-free network.

However, terahertz communication is not available for 24 hours. There is only one group of satellites passing through Antarctica, so Zhongshan Station cannot receive signals for three time periods a day, and about 9 hours is a window period.

Even so, Zhang Chengcai and other scientific expedition team members were already very satisfied. This quality network used to be without even thinking about it.

September 12th.

Antarctica is still dark. Under the aurora, Yang Sen led three team members to drive a sled car to the south.

Their destination for this trip was Taishan Station, which is located on the south side of Princess Elizabeth, which is at a higher latitude, in the inland of Antarctica.

Taishan Station is not their final destination. The final destination is Kunlun Station, the second highest latitude Antarctic scientific research station besides the Amundsen Scott Station in the United States.

And Jansen, who was advancing in the blizzard, found that his terahertz phone could actually receive signals, and the signal was very strong.

Everyone has to sigh that the motherland's technology is changing with each passing day, and even natural desperate situations like Antarctica can provide Internet services.

Not just them lamenting that many Chinese ocean freighters in testing, or those working in Heizhou, feel the power of terahertz communications.

If the satellite density is higher, it can even cover the world and realize global instant messaging.

Through the star communication satellite in space 915 kilometers away, the longing of wanderers in the distance turned into radio waves; and the concerns of their hometown were brought to the wanderers.

Invisible radio waves closely connect us with each other.
