LESI stands for Low Earth Space Internet and refers to a proposed satellite internet constellation that aims to provide global broadband internet connectivity. The term LESI is derived from the combination of "Low Earth Orbit" (LEO) and "Space Internet."
LESI involves deploying hundreds or thousands of small satellites into low Earth orbit, typically at altitudes ranging from 1,200 to 2,000 kilometers above the Earth's surface. These satellites work together to create a network that can cover the entire globe and provide internet coverage even in remote areas where terrestrial infrastructure may be limited or non-existent.
The LESI system works by using a network of satellites to transmit and receive data. Users on the ground will have access to the LESI network through user terminals, which will communicate with the satellites to establish connections and enable internet access. The satellites in the LESI constellation will relay data signals, enabling users to browse the web, stream videos, make voice and video calls, and access various online services.
The LESI concept is being pursued by several companies and organizations, including major tech players and aerospace companies. This global connectivity solution has the potential to bridge the digital divide by providing internet access to underserved populations in developing regions and rural areas. With its extensive coverage and high-speed capabilities, LESI may revolutionize the way people access and utilize the internet, enabling greater connectivity and communication worldwide.
