Huawei Mate X6 Collector’s Edition is launched globally

Blogger Digital Chat Station revealed that the low-orbit satellite communication system has entered the public beta stage. If all goes well, it is expected to realize consumer-grade satellite networking in the second half of the year and provide network connections in areas without network coverage.

It is understood that low-orbit satellite Internet communication is first equipped on the Huawei Mate X6 Collector’s Edition, which is the only popular smartphone in the industry that supports three-network satellite communication .

In addition to the low-orbit satellite Internet communications mentioned above, the Huawei Mate X6 Classic Edition also supports Beidou satellite messaging and Tiantong satellite communications, which together form three-network satellite communications.

According to the different altitudes of satellite orbits, communication satellites can be divided into low-orbit satellites, medium-orbit satellites and high-orbit satellites.

Compared with medium and high orbit satellites such as Beidou and Tiantong, low orbit satellites have unique advantages because they are closer to the earth’s surface. Their satellite network signal propagation delay is low, the signal propagation attenuation is small, and the energy consumption control is better.

In summary, low-orbit satellites shorten the communication distance between smart terminals and satellites, making communication more efficient. In addition, in scenarios such as rescue and scientific research, when there are no base stations on the ground, or the base stations are damaged and communications are paralyzed, low-orbit satellite Internet will also become an important supplement.

In November last year, the Mate X6 Collector’s Edition released by Huawei already had the hardware conditions for low-orbit satellite communications. It is expected to support it in the second half of this year, which is worth looking forward to.
