BeiDou

As the only smartphone in China that doesn't yet support the BeiDou Satellite Navigation System (BDS), Apple's iPhone may soon be making a change.

There are many mobile phone manufacturers working with the BeiDou system, and currently only Apple is an exception, Ran Chengqi, director of the China Satellite Navigation System Management Office and spokesman for BeiDou's satellite navigation system, said at a recent conference.

After a month of in-orbit testing, BeiDou's last satellite passed all tests, according to CCTV.

During the Covid-19 epidemic, Beijing launched driverless vehicles supported by the BeiDou system for delivery of takeaways, food materials and other items in some areas.

Navigation positioning chip is the core of BeiDou navigation industry chain. Recently, Chinese company Mengxin Technology launched the MXT907AM, a low-cost, single-frequency RTK high-precision positioning and orientation module kit that fully supports the BeiDou III satellite signal system.

The "iPhone doesn't support BeiDou navigation" issue has attracted widespread attention in China recently.

On June 30, the last satellite of China's BeiDou 3 global satellite navigation system and the third geostationary orbit satellite payload were switched on, according to China Aerospace Science and Technology Corporation.

On June 23, with the successful launch of the last BeiDou navigation satellite, China's BeiDou navigation system completed its full deployment.

On June 23, the BeiDou 3 global satellite navigation system constellation deployment was completed half a year ahead of schedule, which means that China's self-developed BeiDou system has completed the global network deployment.
