Consideration on strengthening naval communication capability based on integrating civil communication satellites

In the face of challenges from marine security and national interest development,it has been normal for PLA Navy to train in the open sea and maintain overseas interests.Because of being far away from the native land and lack of communication infrastructure,satellite communication is the main means of combat platform for PLA Navy to carry out the high-capacity communication.Although there has been great development in our special military satellite communication systems,it is not good enough to meet the great requirements of PLA Navy.Based on the experiences of Navy leasing civil satellite communications and guided by the idea of civil military integration,necessities and key problems in integrating civil satellite communications are studied in order to develop more communication resources and improve Navy satellite communication supporting capabilities.
