Semantic Depth Prediction System (SDPS) Navigation Solution for GPS Denied Environment
Semantic Depth Prediction System (SDPS) is a vision-based navigation solution that relies on a monocular camera to recreate a 3D scene by fusing object detection, semantic segmentation and depth estimation for the purpose of indoor navigation in GPS denied environments. This eliminates the need for expensive and weighty sensors such as LIDARS which are commonly used in most indoor autonomous drones and Autonomous Ground Vehicles (AGV). By using a monocular camera, this solution will allow indoor drones to be cheaper and smaller thus ensuring safer operations in confined indoor spaces.

Qualcomm brings mmWave to Moscow
The Moscow project involves testing and launching a wide range of new applications, from improved fixed wireless access for private users through to business solutions.
So far the bulk of interest in mmWave spectrum for 5G has come from US operators. The band offers high capacity and data rates, but coverage is limited compared to the mid-band spectrum operators outside the US are typically using.
The Moscow project aims to kick-start a range of 5G-enabled digital services and innovations in the city, including VR and AR applications.
Qualcomm said the Department of Information Technologies of Moscow wants to help propel Russia’s communications industry into becoming a leading technology centre.

Europe dominates
Out of the five metrics measured by OpenSignal (4G availability; video experience; download speed experience; upload speed experience; and latency), European countries “dominated”, it said.
For example, six European countries made the top ten for its latency experience analysis, with only 13 countries in total averaging scores under 30 milliseconds.
Europe was also the best for video experience, with only six countries out of 25 ranked “very good” coming from outside the continent.
“A look the leading countries across OpenSignal’s metrics show the preeminence of Europe,” the company stated. “In a ranking of the top ten countries who scored highly across all five our key metrics, only two were from outside Europe.”
In other highlights, South Korea, where operators have now launched 5G, was the only country where smartphone users enjoyed average download speeds of more than 50Mb/s, with Norway in second with 48.2Mb/s. The global average from the 87 countries stood at 17.6Mb/s.

Ready or not, 5G continues to pick up speed. According to the GSMA, commercial 5G networks are expected to be live in at least 18 major countries by the end of this year.1 Although we are still a very long way from ubiquitous 5G devices, mobile network operators are already preparing their networks for the next evolution by increasing capacity, improving coverage and enhancing performance. And they are using massive deployments of small cells to do so.

US court hampers FCC small cell plan
US judges delivered a blow to a Federal Communications Commission (FCC) plan to cut red tape around the deployment of small cells, ruling installations could not bypass environmental and historical preservation reviews.
A US appeals court, which had been considering proposals designed to speed-up deployment of technology deemed vital to 5G networks, concluded: “The Commission failed to justify its confidence that small cell deployments pose little-to-no cognisable religious, cultural or environmental risk, particularly given the vast number of proposed deployments”.
The judges did, however, pass several provisions in the FCC’s wider proposal. These included clauses preventing parties demanding upfront fees before reviewing proposed sites, and an accelerated timeline for reviews. Some elements of the FCC’s plans were not addressed in the case.

Huawei founder plans overhaul to cut US ties
Huawei founder and CEO Ren Zhengfei (pictured) plotted a major restructure of the business intended to stave off the threat of US sanctions on its supply chain and production, Bloomberg reported.
Citing an internal memo, the news agency said Ren’s plan involved a wide-reaching shake-up of all Huawei businesses, but with a specific focus on its smartphone unit which faces a potential shortfall in components and software due to a US trade ban.
The document showed Ren wants urgent action, stating the restructure must happen within the next three-to-five years and create an “iron army” to tackle the US threat, Bloomberg reported. Huawei’s consumer business, in particular, faced a long “painful” journey, he said.

SoftBank linked to Bharti Airtel move 5g
Indian operator Bharti Airtel reportedly attracted further attention from overseas investors, with SoftBank tipped to be exploring taking a stake in the company days after Singtel was linked to a similar move.
The Japanese giant was said to be in talks to take either a direct stake in Airtel or an indirect holding via the operator’s parent company, CNBC reported citing local press.
Discussions are in the early stages, with the structure and price of any deal still being assessed, the news outlet noted.
If the report is accurate it would represent the second major interest in Airtel in almost as many days after Singapore-based Singtel was linked with a similar bid to increase its holding by expanding its stake in Bharti Telecom, the Indian operator’s major shareholder.
CNBC noted SoftBank previously forged a joint venture with Bharti Enterprises covering social media, gaming and e-commerce. The Japanese company and Singtel also both invested in Airtel Africa as part of a funding round conducted in late 2018.

Viettel unit Mytel trials 5G in Myanmar
Mytel, the fourth-largest mobile operator in Myanmar, conducted 5G technical trials on the 3.5GHz band as part of preparations to launch commercial service after deploying sufficient network infrastructure.
The operator, a joint venture between Vietnam-headquartered Viettel and a consortium of local companies in Myanmar, said in a statement the tests achieved peak downloads speeds of 1.6Gb/s and were the first 5G technology trials in the country.
Mytel started operations in June 2018 after being awarded the country’s fourth mobile licence in January 2017. It had 4.3 million 2G and 4G subscribers at end-June, giving it nearly a 7 per cent market share, GSMA Intelligence data showed.
Military-run Viettel also conducted 5G tests in Vietnam and Cambodia.
Its mobile unit in Cambodia Metfone signed an agreement with the country’s state-owned operator to share IT infrastructure and start 5G trials in July.
After receiving a trial licence in January to use the 3.8GHz and 28GHz bands for tests in Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City, Viettel said it made the first 5G call in Vietnam in mid-May.
Viettel’s parent company runs mobile operations in ten countries in addition to Vietnam, where it is the market leader with a 41 per cent market share.

Brazil’s first 5G auction, currently slated for March 2020
Huawei lined up an $800 million investment in a new manufacturing facility in Brazil, Reuters reported, a move said to be in preparation for an expected boost in demand following the country’s 5G auction.
The news outlet stated the factory will primarily be used to support smartphone production for the Brazilian market and other countries in the region. It will operate alongside Huawei’s existing industrial facility in the Sao Paulo region.
Huawei apparently plans to spend the sum across three years following the completion of the country’s first 5G auction, currently slated for March 2020.
It is not the only vendor planning to take advantage of Brazil’s move towards 5G, with Nokia Latin America CTO Wilson Cardoso tipping the country’s auction to be the world’s biggest, as it looks to take advantage of its position developing industrial use cases for the technology in the country.
In addition to Nokia and Huawei, rival Ericsson also has facilities in the Sao Paulo region.
