Low Earth Orbit (LEO) Satellite Enabled Smart Mobility Simulator
Overview
The recent development of low earth orbit (LEO) satellite commercialization has opened new opportunities for satellite-enabled smart mobility solutions with low-latency and non-territorial communications. This invention will provide reference design on how LEO satellites could facilitate the Smart Mobility applications and develop new satellites with dedicated Smart Mobility functions.
Commercialisation opportunities
Non-exclusive licensing, technology customization services
Problem addressed
V2X and CAV commercialization is hindered by the high hardware costs of infrastructure deployment. To sustain continuous V2X and CAV services between ground sites, the LEO satellite-enabled communication and computation capabilities can provide flexible service coverage, infrastructure cost-efficiency, and global availability.
Innovation
- Theoretical models to support V2X and CAV technologies via LEO satellite communication and computation.
- End-to-end simulation platform for LEO satellite enabled smart mobility applications.
Key impact
- Provide reference design on how LEO satellites could facilitate the Hong Kong Smart Mobility roadmap and encourage new satellites to embrace Smart Mobility functions.
- Enable end-to-end use case evaluation for LEO satellite enabled smart mobility applications.
Application
- Facilitate on-satellite payload system design for smart mobility applications.
- Facilitate constellation orbit design for target area services
