Activity Class: PartnershipActivity
Partnership: Document Extract: Shanghai - based SpaceSail on Tuesday signed a memorandum of understanding with Brazil's state - owned telecoms firm Telecomunicacoes Brasileiras (Telebras) coinciding with Chinese President Xi Jinping's state visit to the Latin American country. The agreement will provide broadband internet services in Brazil in 2026. SpaceSail plans to bring satellite - based internet access to areas with limited connectivity by deploying its Qianfan, or "Thousand Sails", constellation, a low-Earth orbit satellite network currently under construction that would support Brazil's national digital inclusion policies, according to its official WeChat account. The initiative is intended to provide broadband services to schools, hospitals and rural communities, streamlining the delivery of essential public services in previously underserved regions while driving the country's digital economic transformation. Brazil wants to reduce reliance on Starlink, which dominates 46 per cent of the country's satellite internet market, by seeking to diversify its satellite internet providers.

NTT DOCOMO: 6G Radio-interface Indoor Test Using AI in the 4.8 GHz Band for the First Time in Japan Improves Throughput up to 18%

Document Date: Nov. 20, 2024, 2 p.m. / Source: Business Wire
Activity Class: PartnershipActivity
Partnership: Document Extract: NTT DOCOMO, INC., working in cooperation with NTT Corporation, Nokia and SK Telecom Co., Ltd., an international telecommunications operator, announced today that in an indoor test with radio waves in the 4.8Ghz band of 6G wireless technology using AI for the first time in Japan, they confirmed that communication speeds can be improved up to 18 % compared to conventional methods indoors. Moving towards the era of 6G, DOCOMO conducted the test with NTT, Nokia and SK Telecom, using AI technology to optimize transmission and reception processing for various radio wave propagation environments. Specifically, the test confirmed that communication performance can be improved by using AI - based baseband transmission and reception processing developed by Nokia to design optimum modulation schemes according to the radio wave propagation environment and applied it to a wireless interface. In addition, the reception process using AI does not use a known signal between the transmitter and receiver (reference signal) , which is conventionally needed to estimate the propagation channel, but instead uses AI to realize a series of reception processes from channel estimation to signal detection in one step. The result is higher transmission efficiency and improved communication speeds (see figure).
