The 2025 Innovation Development Conference of China's Space-Air-Ground Information and Satellite Internet Alliance was recently held in Xiongan New Area. During the event, the "Top 10 Technological Products" and "Top 10 Application Scenarios" for space-air-ground information and satellite internet were unveiled, alongside the launch of several demonstration projects. This marks a new phase in the large-scale application of space-air-ground information technology in Xiongan.
The "Top 10 Technological Products" address core industry gaps and cutting-edge advancements, covering critical areas such as satellite payloads, terminal equipment, and propulsion systems. Meanwhile, the "Top 10 Application Scenarios"—including polar expedition communication support and global logistics digital intelligence applications—are designed to meet national strategic needs and practical public demands, establishing a four-dimensional "underground-ground-low orbit-space" application framework.
"Stackable flat-panel satellites and high-orbit flexible solar arrays directly tackle industry bottlenecks, while emergency communication for disrupted networks, polar research support, and smart connected vehicles address real-life challenges," remarked one attendee. "Satellite internet used to feel distant, but now it’s clear how it solves tangible problems."
Nearly 100 state-owned enterprises, central government-backed firms, and private companies showcased their latest innovations in satellite internet, integrated communication-navigation-remote sensing, and space-air-ground communication. The core components exhibition featured breakthroughs like all-in-one satellite internet baseband chips and high-resolution remote sensing satellite payloads. A privately developed baseband chip, integrating communication, navigation, and remote sensing data processing, reduces power consumption by over 30% and suits vehicles, vessels, and portable devices. Meanwhile, a university research team’s high-resolution remote sensing payload enables sub-meter Earth observation, valuable for land mapping and ecological monitoring.
The terminal and application zone highlighted real-world utility, from consumer satellite devices to industrial drone mapping systems and emergency communication vehicles. Projects tailored for Xiongan, such as Baiyangdian Lake ecological monitoring and underground navigation systems, demonstrated how space-air-ground technology transitions from "high-end" innovation to daily life.
Yu Guoyi, Deputy Director of Xiongan’s Administrative Committee, stated that Xiongan has prioritized space-air-ground information and satellite internet as its first innovation industrial chain, leveraging state-owned leaders like China SatNet. Currently, 63 enterprises and seven innovation platforms in this sector have gathered in the new area.
