Many people’s understanding of mobile phone satellite communications probably started with Huawei. On August 29, 2023, Huawei took the lead in launching the world's first mass smartphone that supports satellite calls, bringing the out-of-reach function of satellite communications to consumer-grade smartphone terminals. Its greatest contribution is that in the absence of a terrestrial network, users can still make calls and send and receive text messages under the Tiantong satellite network, and it supports free editing of satellite messages. Under the leadership of Huawei, mainstream manufacturers are currently joining the satellite communications track. So in a horizontal comparison, what is the level and experience of each company? On August 21, the "2024 China Telecom Terminal Insight Report" released by China Telecom may provide some reference.
From technology leadership to industry recognition, Huawei stands at the top of the satellite communications tower
On August 21, China Telecom released the "2024 China Telecom Terminal Insight Report" (the 20th issue in total). The report shows that in consumer-grade Tiantong terminals In the performance evaluation, Huawei Pura 70 Pro+ received first place in the five-star certification in comprehensive evaluation. In the individual evaluations of Tiantong network performance, call and SMS latency, positioning performance, and power consumption and endurance performance, Huawei Pura 70 Pro+ received five-star ratings.
As one of the most authoritative telecom inspection reports in the industry, China Telecom Research Institute has released China Telecom Terminal Insight Reports for nine consecutive years since 2014. Its high quality and professionalism have been widely recognized by the industry.
The terminal mobile phone brands participating in this evaluation include Honor, Xiaomi, and OPPO. It is particularly worth mentioning that in the two evaluations of call and SMS latency and positioning performance, Huawei P50 Pro+ is the only model to receive a five-star rating.
With its excellent Tiantong satellite communication performance, Huawei P50 Pro+’s five-star certification performance in the “2024 China Telecom Terminal Insight Report” fully demonstrates Huawei’s leading position and strength in the field of satellite communication technology. In extreme environments without terrestrial networks, Huawei P50 Pro+ creates a worry-free communication experience for users.
Five-dimension performance evaluation: Huawei P50 Pro+ won the first place in the comprehensive five-star certification
"2024 China Telecom Terminal Insight Report" includes Tiantong network performance, Tiantong call quality, call SMS delay, positioning performance, power consumption and endurance performance Five major dimensions are used to consider the selected equipment item by item.
Among them, the call and text message delay directly reflects the quality of the user’s experience in using satellite communication services. Through joint optimization of baseband and systems, Huawei parallelizes satellite communication tasks, greatly improving the latency experience of satellite services. The positioning performance reflects the speed of mobile phone satellite positioning. The faster and more accurate the positioning, the shorter the time it takes for users to obtain rescue in emergency scenarios and the greater their chances. Through self-developed acquisition tracking algorithms and anti-multipath algorithms, Huawei has higher positioning accuracy in multipath scenarios, and ultimately achieves fast and accurate satellite positioning.
As for power consumption and battery life, it’s easy to understand. In emergency scenarios, the lower the power consumption of mobile phone satellite communication means longer standby time for using satellite communication to call for help. Huawei uses adaptive sleep and wake-up control to reduce sleep power consumption and extend users' available time in emergency scenarios. In addition, in terms of network performance, the main purpose is to examine the access speed and success rate of mobile phone satellite networks. Here, Huawei Pura 70 Pro+ has achieved the best network performance through antenna and baseband technology optimization, and also received a five-star rating.
Finally, the voice quality mainly tests the call voice effect in emergency rescue scenarios. While ensuring user intelligibility, Huawei Pura 70 Pro+ optimizes voice quality in complex environments through high-performance call algorithms, noise reduction and other technologies, and its performance is also in the first echelon.
Leading one step ahead, taking the lead step by step! Huawei continues to lead the mobile phone satellite communications track
Nowadays, with the popularity of self-driving travel, people’s travel radius is gradually increasing. In critical scenarios such as injuries, getting lost, vehicle breakdowns, and bad weather, stable, fast, efficient, and smooth satellite communication functions have become a necessity. As Yu Chengdong said, this function is not usually used, but it may be used "once in a lifetime, and once in a lifetime."
Not long ago, an off-road vehicle rolled into a deep ditch in Ali, Tibet. Since there was no mobile phone signal at the incident location, a passing travel blogger used Huawei Pura 70 Ultra to make a satellite phone call to call the police. Together with others, he saved the vehicle with 5 people. The case once again confirms the necessity of satellite calls in a signal-free environment. It also shows that with the blessing of leading satellite communication technology, Huawei Pura 70 series is not only a travel artifact during outdoor journeys, but also can save lives at critical moments.
