Comunicaciones satelitales de órbita baja y constelaciones para conectividad global ubícua
Palabras clave:
comunicaciones satelitales LEO, conectividad global, brecha digital, infraestructura tecnológica, banda ancha móvilResumen
La persistencia de brechas digitales entre zonas urbanas y rurales y entre regiones con distintos niveles de desarrollo limita el acceso equitativo a servicios de telecomunicaciones. El estudio tuvo como objetivo analizar la incidencia de las comunicaciones satelitales de órbita baja en la conectividad global ubicua. Se aplicó un enfoque cuantitativo, basado en información secundaria de organismos internacionales, utilizando regresión múltiple y modelos de ecuaciones estructurales. Los resultados evidencian que la penetración de la banda ancha móvil es el principal determinante de la conectividad, con alta capacidad explicativa del modelo. Se identificaron brechas territoriales significativas, especialmente en regiones con menor infraestructura, y una relación positiva fuerte entre disponibilidad de acceso y niveles de uso de Internet. Además, se determinó que la integración de redes satelitales LEO con sistemas terrestres mejora la cobertura en áreas rurales y fortalece la conectividad inclusiva, siempre que exista adecuada articulación tecnológica y condiciones de acceso sostenibles.
