Rebirth: Let's Talk About 1984

According to reports, this story begins at an entirely unscientific moment: Zhou Ziye, a designer who rose from creating counterfeit mobile phones, suddenly time-traveled back to the year 1984.

Chapter 295 A trade is like a mountain

These guys, who come from a comedy background, are quite funny when they try to persuade people.

In the end, Xing Baohua declined, citing that she was too busy.

The three bosses also knew Xing Baohua's identity; if he were an ordinary person, they wouldn't have acted this way.

Xing Baohua is not only talented, but also a damn big shot.

If something can be solved with money, they'll pay without hesitation. The problem is, Xing Baohua doesn't lack that kind of money! It's purely a matter of personal preference.

Besides, Sister Li isn't bad-looking at all! Why can't she catch the eye of the eldest brother?

After refusing the offers from the three bosses to sing for Sister Li, Xing Baohua left Cinema City.

Notify the person in charge of the software team to come directly to Cinema City after the holiday to help get the promotional video out as soon as possible.

Time is running out, and if we don't get it done soon, it will really cause problems.

Shortly after returning to the company, Xing Baohua's phone rang. When he answered, he heard it was Su Ya calling.

The two chatted for a while, and Su Ya told Xing Baohua that her father was looking for her and gave her a phone number to call him when she had time.

Xing Baohua indicated that he understood, and then asked Su Ya when her holiday would begin.

Anyway, Xing Baohua was too busy to pick up Su Ya. He told her that she could just take a plane home during her vacation.

I hung up the phone before calling my father-in-law.

"Is it convenient for you to talk on your end?" the father-in-law suddenly asked when he received Xing Baohua's call.

"Please wait a moment, I'll call you back in a bit," Xing Baohua said before hanging up the phone.

I took out a set of equipment from the cabinet, scanned the room, and found no problems. Then I used the landline to call my father-in-law.

Xing Baohua modified this landline phone by adding a ferrite core. This was mainly for anti-interference purposes.

It's not for security or eavesdropping prevention; it's just for signal interference reduction. Its function is to improve signal clarity and reduce hissing.

But if someone wires a line to eavesdrop on the phone, there will still be that hissing sound.

The father-in-law answered the phone and asked, "What type of antenna did you and Motorola use for the satellite project?"

"I really don't know. I've never even seen what it looks like, let alone the blueprints," Xing Baohua said honestly.

That thing was made in the United States, so Xing Baohua really didn't have the opportunity to participate.

"Could you try to find out?" the father-in-law continued to ask.

"I'll try my best, but it won't be until after the New Year."

“Okay, it would be best if you could take the lead and give them advice. Phased array antennas are the best option,” the father-in-law said.

"Why?"

"Keep it a secret."

"I don't know anything about those antennas! Besides, isn't phased array radar used in radar? Won't this involve a lot of complicated issues, Uncle? Please, you and your friends, don't mess with me! Okay?"

Xing Baohua almost cried, only now realizing the main function of phase control.

Actually, it's not Xing Baohua's fault. He often uses slot antennas, IFA antennas, and PIFA antennas.

Where would I find information about array antennas? Those things are so big, and they're not suitable for phones or computers!

The father-in-law suddenly said, "When you come back, I'll give you some documents to look at."

"OK!"

After hanging up the phone, Xing Baohua breathed a sigh of relief.

It seems I need to study satellite theory more thoroughly.

With my limited skills, I can only fool people, not experts.

They don't even know what the most basic function of an antenna is?

Now that we know satellites can use array antennas, could we make slight modifications and turn them into radar?

Sweeping and sweeping the floor, making that mess, is it good or bad?

But is control held by the Great Beauty Country?

No, we need to understand the underlying principles. This is no joke; it could lead to serious trouble.

At this point, I wanted to know, but I didn't know where to find out. I had no choice but to ask someone where the largest library in Hong Kong was.

Hong Kong University Library.

Xing Baohua asked someone to come in temporarily to find a few reference books.

There were indeed a few books about satellites inside, but none of them mentioned phased array antennas.

They are all the kind of band specifications used by satellites, such as C-band, Ku-band, Ka-band, L-band, etc.

The receiving equipment is also the kind of large round dish with a high-frequency head.

Different dishes are selected based on different frequency bands. Just like in remote rural mountainous areas where analog signals cannot be received, small satellite dishes are used.

I can only watch programs broadcast on satellite TV.

They also come in different sizes. The smaller dishes that are generally used are C-band.

The large dish used on the hotel rooftop receives signals in the Ku band.

Xing Baohua is now looking for the satellite's transmitting antenna, but the books he found contain no information on this topic.

This really gave this guy a headache.

This matter can only be put on hold for now. I'll look into it when I have the chance. I'll go home and think about it carefully, seeing if I have any relevant information in my mind.

Or he could use the technology he already knows to gradually push the theory forward.

We have no choice but to resort to the brute force method.

Since Xing Baohua couldn't borrow any books from the library, she had to go to the largest bookstore to buy the relevant books.

When he arrived at the bookstore, he was dumbfounded; they basically didn't have the reference books he wanted.

Too niche.

However, Xing Baohua still managed to find two relevant books, both in English. As for whether they contained the knowledge Xing Baohua wanted, he would only know after reading them.

I was lucky to find two related books.

Go home and study them quickly. Don't go anywhere else for a while. Study the two related books thoroughly before making any further moves.

After returning home, I calmly read two chapters and finally understood. Launching a satellite requires applying to the International Telecommunication Union (ITU). In other words, it requires applying to an organization like ITU.
