Huawei Mate 60 phone finally tested satellite Internet
According to the latest report from China Mobile, the China Mobile Research Institute and industrial partners together developed the satellite core network and “Star System” for the onboard regeneration model and reportedly completed the entire satellite ground Testing and space environment adaptability testing.
China Mobile said that in view of the characteristics of low-orbit satellites such as fast movement and wide coverage, the satellite core network optimizes basic 5G processes including session management, mobility management, QoS guarantee and other capabilities to achieve efficient satellite-ground networking.
The test simulated the orbital trajectory of the satellite at an orbital altitude of 550Km. Together with partners such as Shanghai Microsatellite, Huawei, Aipulu, and Fusion Technology, we built a test terminal, ground 5G base station, ground gateway station, and satellite-borne wireless transceiver.
The end-to-end link to the satellite core network verifies the applicability of low-orbit satellite communications in wired and wireless conditions in high dynamics, large delay, narrow beam and IP over CCSDS transmission environments. As can be seen from the official picture of China Mobile, the test device is a Huawei Mate 60 series mobile phone, which supports Beidou satellite two-way communication.
In the actual on-board regeneration mode, the downlink rate of the satellite core network can reach 5Mbps, the uplink rate can reach 1Mbps, and the on-board forwarding rate can reach 230Mbps, the on-board forwarding delay is less than 1ms, and the performance is in line with expectations.
Tipster Digital Chat Station has confirmed that the Chinese tech giant Huawei will release new phones called the Mate 80 series in November. These new phones will have better designs, cameras, and speed.
The company is expected to compete with Apple’s new iPhone 17 phones. Huawei will make four different Mate 80 phones: the regular Mate 80, Mate 80 Pro, Mate 80 Pro+, and Mate 80 RS. Each phone will have different cameras. The regular Mate 80 will have a 50-megapixel camera.
The Pro version will have a bigger 50-megapixel camera. The Pro+ and RS models will have even bigger 50-megapixel cameras.
The Pro model might have a flat screen and face recognition. The Pro+ and RS models might have curved screens that bend more.
The best phone, the Mate 80 RS, might have a 6.9-inch screen with special technology.
This screen should be brighter, use less battery power, and last longer than normal phone screens. Huawei might also use strong titanium metal for the frame and special glass on the back. Inside the phones, there will be a new chip called the Kirin 9030. The battery might be bigger than 6000mAh and charge very fast – 100W with a wire and 80W without wires. The phones might work with 5G internet and satellite communication.
The phones will use Huawei’s own software called HarmonyOS. This might work better with other Huawei devices and have more AI features. Some people think these improvements will help Huawei compete better with Apple, especially in battery life, communication, and smart features.
A Chinese company called HiSilicon Semiconductor just changed who’s in charge. The old boss, Xu Zhijun, stepped down from his job as the legal representative and chairman. Now the company’s CEO, Gao Ji, is taking over these roles.
Xu has been working at Huawei since 1993 and still has other important jobs there – he’s a vice chairman and sometimes serves as the rotating chairman. Him leaving this position is probably just Huawei moving people around to different jobs within the company.
HiSilicon is completely owned by Huawei and makes computer chips. This change in leadership might mean Huawei is trying to make things work better.
HiSilicon started in October 2004 when Huawei took its computer chip design team and turned it into its own company. The main office is in Shenzhen, but they also have offices in Beijing, Shanghai, and other cities in China.
HUAWEI has introduced the all-new MatePad Mini tablet, in China. As per the specifications, the device is 5.1mm thin, weighs 255g, and boasts an 8.8″ 2.5K 120Hz OLED screen with 2.99mm narrow bezels.
It has support for the HUAWEI M-Pencil Pro, runs HarmonyOS 5.1, has a 3D heat dissipation architecture for cooling, has SIM card support, and has a 6400mAh battery with 66W fast charging support.
It also features a dual rear camera setup consisting of a 50MP main camera and an 8MP ultra-wide camera with macro mode, along with a single 32MP front-facing camera. These are paired with AI photo editing features. Like other HUAWEI phones, the chipset hasn’t been revealed, but it is most likely powered by HUAWEI’s own Kirin 9010 SoC, based on earlier reports.
