After the set-top box automatically completes the search, they can listen to and watch radio and television programs normally.
After the star is put into use,my country's on-orbit dedicated radio and television transmission and live broadcast satellites have been fully domestically produced.
It is understood that in June this year, the Long March 3B carrier rocket ignited and took off at the Xichang Satellite Launch Center, and then sent the ChinaSat 9C satellite into the predetermined orbit. The launch mission was a complete success.
According to media reports, the ChinaSat 9C satellite was developed by the Fifth Academy of China Aerospace Science and Technology Corporation. It is a dedicated live broadcast satellite for radio and television.Using the Dongfanghong-4 enhanced satellite platform independently developed by my country, Ku BSS and other frequency band payloads are designed on the satellite.
The satellite has a take-off weight of 5.5 tons, a design life of 15 years, a whole-satellite power of 14.4 kilowatts, and a payload power consumption of 11 kilowatts, creating the "best" among the four series of satellite platforms in Dongfang.
