Indoor Positioning and Navigation Market Trends:

Google is developing an indoor location positioning technology based on its Tango Augmented Reality (AR) system. This new technology is called Visual Positioning Service (VPS). It will allow a mobile device to swiftly and accurately understand its position indoors. Using visual clues from distinct features in the room, a Tango-enabled phone would be able to recognize where it is in space by comparing new points captured by its camera with previously observed ones.

January 24, 2018: Here Technologies, a mapping company valued at around $3 billion has acquired Micello, a company based in California that operates a platform for creating, editing and publishing indoor maps. This acquisition will support HERE’s strategy to provide world-class mapping and advanced location services both indoors and outdoors. In combination with HERE’s unique tracking technologies, indoor maps will enable new and innovative market solutions such as the tracking of parts on a factory floor, the optimization of workspace usage, indoor wayfinding at complex transit interchanges, and last mile guidance in vehicles.

Fantasmo, a notable technology start-up, has camera positioning standard (CPS) which captures spatial data through your device’s camera. With this data stored in a server, AR apps can readily and accurately determine position and location relative to recognized landmarks in the immediate vicinity. Fantasmo’s approach also mirrors another startup, 6D.ai, whose platform can capture a dense 3D mesh with smartphone cameras while running in the background.

Sydney airport introduces Apple Maps. Getting around Sydney Airport just got easier due to the gateway’s adoption of Apple Maps (web mapping service), which shows users how to navigate their way through T1 International, T2/T3 Domestic terminals and its car parks. Customers can now easily find facilities and services inside the terminal, including restrooms, parent’s rooms, elevators and shops, and see current location with indoor positioning.

Infsoft 360° Antennas’ Angle of Arrival technology has spurred a new way about how to calculate location. These receiver antennas detect the radio signals emitted by any mobile 2.4 GHz transmitter (e.g. beacon) that is in range. Based on the angle and distance determined, it is possible to calculate the position of an object equipped with such transmitter with an accuracy of 1 to 3 meters. This makes server-based BLE solutions a favorable alternative to cost intensive Ultra-wideband (UWB) applications as long as no centimeter accuracy is required. In comparison to using UWB, a beacon based tracking system utilizing AoA technology can be set up at much lesser costs and also has an advantage of a longer battery lifetime. Practical applications of this technology can include tracking systems in logistics, for example, which can make a decisive contribution to maximizing warehouse operations.

Initially, it only affected China, but its effects started being felt around the globe, with many countries implementing lockdown. The volunteers from Slovakian company Sygic and other technology companies developed a mobile application, aiming to slow down the spread of COVID-19. The technology used GNSS and Bluetooth sensors to determine if the user came into contact with an infected person in the last 14 days. According to a study by Science Daily published in September 2020, the quality of GNSS reflectometry measurements may have improved significantly during the pandemic because of the lack of cars parked near the ground station. The researchers showed that parked cars significantly reduced the quality of the elevation data by scattering the GNSS signals, causing them to be reflected several times before they reached the antenna, like a cracked mirror.

In the year 2019, many Communications Service Providers (CSPs) started trials and rollouts of 5G networks. Many countries were getting ready for rollouts through spectrum auctions, infrastructure contracts, and other initiatives. But due to the advent of the COVID-19 pandemic, there has been a huge impact on both rollouts and readiness for 5G. Countries have started witnessing delays in their spectrum auctions. Technologies deployed in 5G network contain a wide bandwidth for better time resolution, which makes 5G networks a convenient environment for accurate positioning.

Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Review

Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 full review If you're looking for a sub-£200 Android phone with a decent-size screen, good battery life and usable all-round performance and features, this could be it. Very similar to the Mi Max 3, but with a smaller 5.99in display, the Redmi Note 5 is a worthy upgrade over the Note 4 with improved performance, photography and design.

Since we originally wrote this review Xiaomi has entered the UK smartphone market, making it much easier to obtain its smartphones here. The Redmi Note 5 is now available from the likes of Amazon for £229.

A special Cyber Monday deal knocks a further £69 off the price, with the Redmi Note 5 available for just £159.99. (See more Cyber Monday deals.)

Previously we've had to import review samples from China, and this Redmi Note 5 was supplied by GearBest, where current pricing is £182.39. When there's no Cyber Monday sale on at Amazon this makes it the cheaper deal, but know that when importing from China to the UK you are liable for import duty, charged at 20 percent of the value printed on the shipping paperwork.

This is the Global version of the Redmi Note 5, which comes with all Google services preinstalled along with MIUI 9. It supports all 4G LTE bands used in the UK, too, which can be a problem with some Chinese handsets.

When is a Redmi Note 5 not a Redmi Note 5? Xiaomi's phone naming scheme can be incredibly confusing if you're not familiar with it, but we think more so with the Redmi Note 5 than any other. That's because the Redmi Note 5 that launched in China and is sold globally is not the same phone as the Redmi Note 5 that launched in India.

The Redmi Note 5 available in India has a single-lens camera at the rear and some lower-spec hardware, including the Snapdragon 625 processor. It has the new 18:9 5.99in display, but in other respects is not a huge departure from the Redmi Note 4. And that explains why some reviews of the Redmi Note 5 are less complimentary than others.

Also available in India is the Redmi Note 5 Pro, and that's (almost) the phone you see here rebranded as the Redmi Note 5. It has a dual-lens camera at the rear and runs the Snapdragon 636.

But in India the Pro also has a 20Mp selfie camera and up to 6GB of RAM, while this Global version's front camera is rated at 13Mp and has either 3- or 4GB of memory.

If you're worried about purchasing the wrong version of the phone then fear not - we couldn't even find the Indian models for sale in the UK. But we'd recommend double-checking the spec before you buy. Better yet, just click this link.

Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 What's new in Redmi Note 5? There are some key design changes in the Redmi Note 5 over its predecessor, but also a return to the Redmi Note 3's part plastic build - the antenna lines at the rear of the Note 4 have been replaced with plastic end caps - and 4000mAh battery, which is still pretty generous, but 100mAh down on Redmi Note 4.

More impressive is the new 5.99in Full-HD+ IPS display, not only larger than the 5.5in previous example but also taller, adopting the 18:9 aspect ratio that has become fashionable in today's market. It helps the phone look more on-trend, and also allows for a larger screen without infringing on usability - the Note 5 is only 7mm taller than its predecessor, and fractionally narrower and slimmer.

The phone's chin has also been reduced, with navigational buttons now appearing onscreen. And an update to MIUI 10 is available, which gives you the option to use swipe gestures to go home or back, removing these buttons from the display.

There are some tweaks found along the edges, too. While the Redmi Note 5 still features a mono speaker, it no longer attempts to hide this fact with a set of drilled holes lying either side of its Micro-USB port. Instead you'll find just one, and on the other side the headphone jack has moved down from its previous position at the top of the device.

The rear-mounted fingerprint sensor has not moved, but where the single-lens camera previously sat above it Xiaomi has now added a second lens and moved this to a new position at top-left. It did lie flush; now it juts out a tad.

And naturally there have been hardware changes, which result in a boost to performance. Gone is the deca-core Helio X20 chip with Mali T880 graphics, and in comes the Snapdragon 636 with Adreno 509. There's a new 4GB RAM, 64GB storage model, too (that's what we're reviewing here).

Redmi Note 5 Design & Build Despite the aforementioned sprinkling of plastic parts, Redmi Note 5 is a very good-looking phone at this price. Moreover, it feels sturdy, and very well-made.

The new screen and taller aspect ratio is a blessing for usability, and though it's still a bit of a stretch for your thumb to reach the top corner it is operable in a single hand - especially when you take advantage of one-handed mode, which shrinks the display area.

It's an IPS panel, which bodes well for quality, with realistic colours and good viewing angles. We can't find any official reference to the Note 5 using Gorilla Glass protection, but thanks to a metal rear it is only the one side of this smartphone you need to keep safe. You'll also find a silicone case in the box, which is handy.

Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 We measured the maximum screen brightness at 427cd/m2, which is very good for a sub-£200 phone. Being able to ramp up the brightness so high also makes the screen easier to see outdoors.

The display has a full-HD+ resolution of 2160x1080, which results in a pixel density of 403ppi. It's sufficiently clear, and also no higher in resolution than even Xiaomi's flagship phones.

We're disappointed to see an old Micro-USB port at the bottom, especially given that it won't charge any faster than at 10W. There is a charger supplied in the box, but it has a two-pin EU plug, so if you're purchasing this phone in the UK you'll need to supply your own adaptor.

Naturally at this price there's no support for wireless charging, which has so far been seen only on the Mi Mix 2S.

On the up side, Xiaomi has retained the IR blaster on the Note 5's top edge. It's incredibly rare to find such a feature in phones these days.

There's also the fingerprint scanner at the rear, which works well - but if you're interested in mobile payments be aware there's no support for NFC.

Connectivity is otherwise pretty good, with dual-band 802.11ac Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 5.0, GPS and GLONASS, and a hybrid SIM slot that can either accept a single SIM and a microSD card for storage expansion or two SIMs that work in dual-standby mode.

Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Redmi Note 5 Hardware & Performance Powering the show here is a Qualcomm Snapdragon 636 chip clocked at 1.8GHz, with integrated Adreno 509 graphics. It's paired with 4GB of memory.

That's the same setup as in the Mi Max 3, and as you'll see in our chart below performance is on par.

As we said for that phone, the Redmi Note 5 is not a speed demon. However, it offers usable performance for most users for daily tasks, and we didn't spot any sign of lag when navigating the interface and launching apps.

You can play casual games and watch movies, provided you don't throw anything too intensive at it.

Battery life is very good, and you'll easily get at least a full day's life from the 4000mAh cell - maybe more, depending on your usage.

In Geekbench 4's battery test it scored 5390 points, and kept churning through its task list for 8 hours 59 minutes.

Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Redmi Note 5 Cameras & Photography It might sound like a similar setup as found on the Mi Max 3, but the Redmi Note 5's camera is inferior with no AI mode. It also maxes out at 1080p video recording.

Still, it's an improvement on the Redmi Note 4's 13Mp rear camera and 5Mp selfie camera. This new model has a 12Mp + 5Mp dual-lens camera at the rear, with dual phase-detection dual-focus and 1.4um pixels. At the front is a 13Mp selfie camera.

Aside from the missing AI button at the top, the camera app looks the same as on any other Xiaomi phone, with options to turn on/off/auto the flash and HDR mode, and to select real-time filters. At the bottom you swipe between video (and short video), photo, portrait, square, panorama and manual shooting modes.

Portrait mode is what's used to create those funky blurred background shots that help your subject to stand out, aided by the second camera lens.

Overall we were very impressed with the quality of our test shots (below in Auto and HDR modes). Those pictured below appear a little dark, though it was an overcast day when they were shot. They show plenty of detail but are perhaps a little over-sharpened.

Redmi Note 5 Auto

Redmi Note 5 HDR In low-light the Redmi Note 5 did a fantastic job. There is some noise but overall blacks are well rendered, text is largely fuzz-free, and the scene is adequately lit without requiring aid from the flash.

Redmi Note 5 Low Light

Redmi Note 5 Software The Redmi Note 5 runs MIUI 9 out of the box but an upgrade is available to MIUI 10. This is still based on Android Oreo rather than the more recent Android Pie (which will be coming in time), but includes some nice new features such as full-display gesture support, a redesigned quick access panel and volume controls, plus the addition of Picture in Picture and Autofill.

It won't be immediately recognisable as Android if you've not picked up a Xiaomi phone before, and the lack of an app tray means the shortcuts all spill out over the home screens (but can be tidied into folders). The Settings menu also looks completely different, and there are some Xiaomi-specific apps here too.

Because this is the Global ROM version of the Redmi Note 5 it is preinstalled with Google services; were you to buy the Chinese ROM version you would need to install these yourself from the Mi App Store. That's because Google services are not used in China.

Other things we like about MIUI include the aforementioned One-handed mode, plus Second Space and Dual Apps.

Xiaomi Redmi Note 5

Redmi Note 5 Verdict It's not infallible, but the Redmi Note 5 is a great all-rounder and will be hard to beat under £200. It benefits from a very good and well-sized screen, and has a decent camera and usable performance.

Sony Xperia Has A Prototype 5G mm Wave Xperia Smartphone

Many smartphone manufacturers launched or demonstrated prototypes of 5G phones at this year's Mobile World Congress. While many mobile phones display support for 5G features below 6GHz, they omits the mmWave feature because most Western carriers will not support this feature in 2019. In contrast, Sony's event this year showcased the prototype of a 5G smartphone. Support mmWave. With Japan's NTT Docomo plans to launch support for the technology this year, Sony has the opportunity to become one of the first 5G mmWave handset suppliers in its domestic market.

Like other mmWave devices on display at the show, Sony's prototype 5G smartphone is based on Qualcomm's Snapdragon X50 modem, which for technical reasons must be paired with its 855 application processor. The phone features Sony's iconic design and sharp edges, with Sony's stylish 21:9 aspect ratio OLED display. At the same time, because the phone uses a number of dedicated mmWave antennas, the phone is quite large: it looks longer than the recently introduced Xperia X1, and it is also very thick.

The prototype smartphone has a dual-module camera with Zeiss optics and two LED flashers on the back. There is also a self-timer camera in front. Although it should be noted that since we are talking about prototypes, the commercial version may get different/upgraded imaging capabilities. For physical connections, the phone has a USB Type-C port for data transfer and charging.

Sony did not say when it plans to launch its Xperia 5G smartphone, but because the prototype is powered by Qualcomm's modern platform, it is certain that the company is inclined to launch commercial products as early as possible. Keep in mind that this year NTT Docomo will support the mmWave band, and Sony's launch plan is likely to depend on the deployment of NTT Docomo, at least to some extent.

Sony presented its first 5G device at the 2019 World Mobile Communications Conference (MWC2019). According to OEMs, this smartphone is only called AG-1. The company says it runs on the Snapdragon 855.

Sony asserts that the AG-1 can use protocols below 6 GHz and 5 mm waves associated with the next generation radio band. It also seems to be running Android 9 (Pie). In addition, due to its 21:9 aspect ratio, it has a very high appearance, which also appears in the new 4G Xperia 1. On the other hand, the Sony representative did mention that the company may not necessarily adhere to these aesthetics and they will continue to develop their first 5G mobile phone in the future.

However, Sony did not provide any indication of when the AG-1 based finished product could be sold. Since the X50 modem has now launched the second-generation X55, it is hoped that the Japanese electronics giant will not wait too long to release its initial attempt to enter the emerging 5G market.

Sony is also active in the 5G field. “We are working with our global partners to make 5G – below 6 GHz and millimeter waves – this is the reality. You can find the prototype of the Sony 5G mmWave smartphone on display at MWC at our booth.

In terms of overall performance and platform functionality, the Xperia 1 is based on the Qualcomm Snapdragon 855 SoC with 6 GB LPDDR4X and 64 or 128 GB NAND flash. The smartphone does not support 5G, but it still supports Gigabit 4G / LTE, 802.11ac Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 5.0, NFC, A-GPS, GLONASS, BDS, GALILEO and other advanced features of the platform. See the table below for complete specifications.

Antennae

When I was about 11, living in Washington DC, I tried to make a radar set for a science fair. Sensibly, I think, I started off by trying to build a simple resistor/capacitor oscillator with components from Radio Shack, but I couldn’t even get that to work (I was completely on my own when it came to electronics).

At around the same time I was interested in the shape of the newly-declassified F-117 stealth fighter. It’s a mysterious thing, and it was easy to draw in LOGO on the TRS-80s at school.

When I got to university, I was curious about simulating radar on the computer, but in those days (1995), though there was information about numerical codes for simulating the propagation of electromagnetic waves on the Internet, there didn’t seem to be a way to inform myself how to actually make it work. It was another overambitious idea.

There was a math student a year or two ahead of me who knew something about antennae, but it was difficult to communicate. He told a story from a summer placement about oceanographic simulations running on a Cray computer, in which a grid of points covering the UK was used. Because the Cray was “faster on vectors”, the ocean calculation was performed for some points that actually lay inland. It would have been slower to exclude them from the calculation.

This was a couple of years after Jurassic Park, so supercomputers were still a very exciting, and generally unattainable, thing to think about. I never really pursued the radar/antennae thing any further, though over a few years I did teach myself a lot about the computer rendering techniques used to make films like Toy Story. Since light is visible and intuitive and radio waves aren’t, it was easier to grasp. Of course it’s all electromagnetic radiation, but the scenario is very different. It’s near-field vs far-field, not to mention the fact that with radio, the conductivity of the target is relevant. (In fact electrical properties affect the visual appearance of materials as well, but this is not a central part of computer graphics.)

Another thing is that objects (especially like the faceted F-117) can be easily represented by b-rep techniques (triangle meshes, NURBs, or subdivision subfaces). Fields are a lot more trouble: you have to store a huge array of points and it becomes unsatisfying, I think.

Just the other week, there was a thread on Hacker News about GPS and GLONASS that wandered into a discussion about understanding antenna design. That kind of thing is exactly the only reason I still read HN (it’s politically a very difficult place for me and others who aren’t typical of Silicon Valley engineering/entrepreneurial culture.)

I’m going to publish a few of the recommended references here to substantiate the value of seeing them there, for myself if no-one else.
