![]() As its core technical index, the data reception rate is up to 2*600Mbps(X band) and 4*1.5Gbps (Ka band), which is advanced in the world. The main technical capabilities of RSGS are as follows:ġ ) The data receiving system is capable of receiving satellite downlink data of the S, X and Ka band. The list of domestic and international satellite related to RSGS. From 2015, RSGS has succeeded in receiving data from China’s Dark Matter Particle Detection satellite (DAMPE, “WuKong”), SJ-10 satellite, Quantum Science Experimental satellite (QUESS, “MoZi”), and Hard X-ray Modulation Telescope satellite (HXMT, “HuiYan”). The data service of RSGS was hence extended from the earth observation to the space science. Since 1999 RSGS has been responsible for receiving data from all China’s earth observation satellites such as CBERS-01, CBERS-02, CBERS-02B, CBERS-04, HJ-1A, HJ-1B, HJ-1C, ZY-02C, ZY-03, ZY3-02, SJ-9A, SJ-9B, GF-1, GF-1B/1C/1D, GF-2, GF-3, GF-4, GF-5, GF-6 and CSES.Īfter the “CAS Strategic Priority Program on Space Science” was initiated in 2011, RSGS takes the responsible of tracking the near-earth satellites as well as receiving, recording and transmitting their data. In 2015 RSGS started to receive and process French PLEIADES-1A and PLEIADES-1B satellites data, whose spatial resolution is up to 0.5 meter. From 1998, RSGS began to receive and process data from the French SPOT series satellites (including SPOT-1 、 SPOT-2 、 SPOT-4 、 SPOT-5 、 SPOT-6 and SPOT-7), providing high spatial resolution data to Chinese users. In 19 respectively, RSGS succeeded in receiving and processing data from the RADARSAT-1 and RADARSAT-2 satellites of Canada, with multimode and full polarization SAR capacity. In 1993, it started to receive and process SAR (synthetic aperture radar) data from the ERS-1 satellite of ESA and the JERS-1 satellite of Japan, realizing all-weather earth observation. In 1986, RSGS began to receive and process data from LANDSAT-5. RSGS has become one of China’s core infrastructure facilities in the field of earth observation. Its range covers southwest China and the neighbor regions.īased on 30 years’ development, RSGS has formed an integrated satellite data receiving, transmitting, archiving, processing and distributing system with Beijing Headquarters as the operation management and data processing centre, and the Miyun, Kashi, Sanya, Kunming and North Polar ground stations as the data receiving network. It has one set of 7.3-meter antenna system. The Kunming Ground Station was put into operation in 2015. Its reception mask covers the South China Sea and neighbouring countries in southeast Asia. It is equipped with five sets of 12-meter antenna systems. The Sanya Ground Station was put into use in 2010. Its reception mask covers western China and central Asian countries. ![]() Now it has five sets of 12-meter antenna systems and one set of 7.3-meter antenna system. The Kashi Ground Station came into operation in 2008. Starting operation in 1986 and equipped with 8 sets of antenna system as well as the corresponding data receiving, recording and transmitting facilities, the reception mask of Miyun Ground Station covers central China, northeast China and the neighbouring countries. Reception mask of Miyun, Kashi, Sanya, Kunming and North Polar ground stations of RSGS. With five ground stations built in Miyun, Kashi, Sanya, Kunming and North Pole (Kiruna, Sweden), the visible range of RSGS covers the entire Chinese territory and 70% of the land area of Asia, and global satellite remote sensing data can be accessed efficiently. As one of the world’s busiest ground stations, RSGS has received, processed and archived more than 40 satellites, 3.6 million scenes of satellite imagery since 1986. RSGS is not only a major national science and technology infrastructure but also a member of international ground stations group on Earth Observation. ![]() Deng Xiaoping.Ĭhinese name of RSGS inscribed by Deng Xiaoping. China Remote Sensing Satellite Ground Station (RSGS) was established and put into operation in 1986, with its Chinese name inscribed by Mr.
