How do you like that, Elon Musk? Ericsson, Qualcomm and Thales to test 5G in space

Published

Ericsson, Thales and Qualcomm intend to join forces to spread 5G networks beyond the earth’s surface. This will allow terrestrial repeaters to link to satellites. This will allow the creation of non-terrestrial networks (NTN) or “non-terrestrial” networks of the fifth generation, which will make it possible to use smartphones with 5G modems anywhere in the world.

It is argued that this will allow the use of 5G even where old-style satellites work – in the Far North, over the oceans and so on. In addition, this approach will expand global roaming for important industries such as energy, transport and healthcare. Also, such a space network will provide communications for emergency and special services, government agencies, and so on. The project itself was approved by the 3GPP association in March 2022.

Note that for now only testing is planned, but in the future the idea is to make all 5G smartphones satellite. Testing will be carried out in France. Each company will deal with its own segment.

Ericsson will test Virtual RAN (vRAN) technology that has been modified for 5G. Thales will conduct tests of satellite equipment on low-orbit satellites. And Qualcomm will provide smartphones for work. After that, tests on ground equipment are expected to get ahead of signal delays. The date of the commercial launch of such a network has not yet been announced.

Meanwhile, SpaceX has launched a new constellation of Starlink satellites into orbit. As part of this mission, 46 satellites were launched.

Lenovos first AI laptop will be very quiet but not

Lenovo has published a teaser dedicated to its first AI laptop – Xiaoxin Pro AI Ultrabook 2024. One of the main features of the device will be low noise level.

Lenovo's first AI laptop will be very quiet, but not always.  Details about Xiaoxin Pro AI Ultrabook 2024

The image shows the cooling system of the Xiaoxin Pro AI Ultrabook 2024. Everything here is pretty standard for a model that does not have a dGPU: two heat pipes and two fans. The creators say that the minimum noise level of the system will be only 17 dBA, and this is really low. But there is a nuance: we are talking about noise at the minimum fan speed in energy saving mode. And although Lenovo says that the laptop’s performance in this mode will be high, it will still be far from what the Core Ultra processor can show in maximum performance mode.

The official premiere of the new product, apparently, will take place this week – immediately after Intel introduces the CPU Core Ultra. Lenovo Xiaoxin Pro AI Ultrabook 2024 will receive 32 GB of RAM, a 1 TB SSD, an 84 Wh battery (the predecessor has 75 Wh) and support for 100-watt charging.

The iPhone 16 and Galaxy S24 lines will not receive

Samsung smartphones from the Galaxy S24 line and devices from the iPhone 16 line will likely retain the same RAM options that current models currently have.

The iPhone 16 and Galaxy S24 lines will not receive an increase in RAM compared to their predecessors, despite the hype around AI

Analysts at Mizuho Securities, cited by insider Revegnus, say that the growing demand for AI should, in theory, contribute to the growth of RAM in smartphones. We previously reported that thanks to the emphasis on AI, manufacturers may begin to actively equip their smartphones with 16-24 GB of RAM.

However, a significant increase in memory prices, as well as the still missing scenarios for local AI that will run directly on smartphones, will lead to the fact that next year manufacturers will not actively increase the amount of memory. In particular, Samsung and Apple can leave everything as it is now.

This means that the iPhone 16 and 16 Plus will each receive 6 GB of RAM, and the iPhone 16 Pro and 16 Pro Max will each receive 8 GB. Samsung’s new generation flagships will have 8 or 12 GB of RAM.

It is likely that other manufacturers will not rush to increase volumes, and this, in turn, may slow down the development of local AI on smartphones.
