The invention discloses a Beidou satellite monitoring safe driving system based on a 3G (third generation) network. The Beidou satellite monitoring safe driving system comprises a platform server positioned in a monitoring center and a monitoring terminal at a vehicle end, wherein the monitoring terminal is connected with the platform server through a network communication system; a monitoring platform, a database, SMS (short message service) and telephone service are operated on the platform server; and the monitoring terminal comprises a housing and a mechanism circuit arranged in the housing. According to the Beidou satellite monitoring safe driving system disclosed by the invention, under the concept of an inter-vehicle network, three major functions, namely positioning by a Beidou vehicle-mounted satellite, 3G wireless video monitoring and vehicle driving recording are firstly integrated, double-CPU (central processing unit) real-time processing, a DSP (digital signal processing) algorithm, an optimization transceiving queue scheduling algorithm, a double-code stream, a special file system, identity comparison identification and other technologies are integrated, video signals collected by a video camera are compressed, encoded and then converted to a compressed code stream, and real-time transmission is realized through the 3G network.
