Xiaomi satellite communication is coming too? New patents have been announced!
In September this year, Huawei and Apple released new phones at the same time. In addition to the upgrade of the processor, the two mobile phone brands also announced different satellite communication technologies to the world. At the same time, Xiaomi also recently announced related patents, saying that it would enhance the signal of the mobile phone through satellites, so that users can use the mobile phone with stronger signals. Here's how to introduce the specific content.
Recently, Beijing Xiaomi Mobile Software Co., Ltd. applied for the patent of "switching configuration determination method, device and communication equipment device". The patented method includes: the user equipment (UE) determines the handover configuration for cell handover based on the handover configuration information of the target service satellite associated with cell handover in response to cellular mobile data communication through satellite signals. With this technology, Xiaomi mobile phone users can intelligently switch networks with better signals with the help of satellites to ensure smooth connection of mobile phone networks and stable signals.
Specific messages
From the above information, this patent of Xiaomi is similar to the satellite communication technology carried by Huawei Mate50 series. The difference is that Huawei Mate 50 series mobile phones have no signals, and can connect users' locations and external contacts through satellite connections. Xiaomi's technology is to switch more stable signal sources directly through satellites, while ensuring smooth external communication. To some extent, the patented technology can be regarded as Xiaomi's satellite communication technology. It is worth mentioning that Samsung, Meizu and other mobile phone manufacturers are preparing for satellite communication technology.
The new patent rate of Xiaomi is probably related to satellite communication. After all, Xiaomi mobile phones have always kept up with the trend of the times. Apple and Huawei must not be absent if they have such a situation. However, the specific implementation is still unknown, and we still need to wait for the official release of Xiaomi.
