BEIJING Miles Mikolas Jersey , Oct. 2 (Xinhua) -- After saying nihao, or hello, to his Austrian counterpart some 7,000 kilometers away, Bai Chunli, president of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, completed the world's first intercontinental quantum communication in Beijing.


The dialogue between Bai and Anton Zeilinger Mike Shannon Jersey , Austrian quantum physicist and President of the Austrian Academy of Sciences, on Sept. 29 could be ultra-secret if they keep it private between them.


Encrypted by quantum communication technology, what they said could not be wiretapped, intercepted or cracked.


Bai's greeting was first sent out through a control center in Beijing along the Beijing-Shanghai Trunk Line, the first of its kind for secure quantum telecommunication open for use the same day.


The 2,000-km trunk line had been connected through a ground station to the world's first quantum satellite Micius launched by China in August last year.


Micius was named after a fifth century B.C. Chinese philosopher and scientist who was credited as the first person to conduct optical experiments.


During their talk, Zeilinger expressed congratulations on the achievements Chinese scientists made in quantum communication and hoped to strengthen cooperation.


Earlier that day Mike Matheny Jersey , Bai had video talks with staff in Hefei, Jinan, Shanghai and Urumqi ground stations through the trunk line.


Pan Jianwei, chief scientist of the trunk line, said the video call between Bai and Zeilinger involved a long distance and multiple nodes.


Given that some nodes were not built by Chinese scientists, the tests showed the ground-space quantum communication network was stable, compatible and good for practical use Michael Wacha Jersey , said Pan.


Chinese businesses, including the Bank of Communications, the Industrial and Commercial Bank of China (ICBC) and Alibaba, have used the quantum communication technology for information transmission.


Zhu Yu, deputy head of the China Information Industry Association, expected the tests would attract more companies into the sector of quantum communication, and a brand new industrial chain would come into shape.


A number of encryption communication products including quantum USB key Matt Carpenter Jersey , a protecting device for mobile payment, have been put to the market.


In one or two years, China is likely to issue national standards for quantum key distribution equipment, according to sources close to the trunk line project.




JIUQUAN, Oct. 9 (Xinhua) -- China launched Venezuela's remote sensing satellite, VRSS-2, into a preset orbit from the Jiuquan Satellite Launch Center in northwest China's Gobi desert at 12:13 on Monday.


The VRSS-2 was the third satellite jointly launched by China and Venezuela Mark McGwire Jersey , and also the later's second remote sensing satellite. It will be primarily used by Venezuela for land resources inspection, environmental protection, disaster monitoring and management, crop yield estimation and city planning.


The satellite was launched by a Chinese Long March-2D carrier rocket which was designed by Shanghai Academy of Spaceflight Technology.


This was the 252nd flight mission for the Long March rocket family.


In 2008, China launched Venezuela's first satellite -- the Venesat-1, or "Simon Bolivar" -- which carried communications facilities.


In 2012, Venezuela's first remote sensing satellite Marcell Ozuna Jersey , the VRSS-1, was launched into space from China.




Chinese technology titan Huawei said Tuesday it filed suit in the United States against Samsung, claiming its South Korean rival has infringed on patents on wireless connectivity for mobile devices.


The lawsuit filed in federal court in California alleges that "Samsung and its affiliates have earned billions of dollars by selling (mobile) products that use Huawei's technology."


Huawei said it was filing a similar lawsuit in China alleging infringement of patents which allow mobile devices to connect to high-speed networks.


The suit opens up a legal battle over wireless patents for 4G networks between two of the largest global technology firms.


"Our very strong preference is to resolve disputes on licensing through negotiations," William Plummer, Huawei's US-based vice president for external affairs, told AFP.


"It is unfortunate when we have to take this route but when you are the leader in the industry in making investments to develop these technologies, protecting your investments is very important."


Plummer said Huawei had reached agreements to license its patents to many other global tech firms including Apple Lou Brock Jersey , Qualcomm and Ericsson.


Huawei is well behind Samsung as a maker of mobile devices, but the Chinese firm has a large networking business and its research arm last year spent over $9 billion.


"As a major holder of standard essential patents relating to cellular networks, Huawei is committed to licensing these patents on fair, reasonable, and non-discriminatory terms, but it believes that it is entitled to reasonable compensation from firms that use its technology without such a license," said a statement released by the company.


Ding Jianxing lex Reyes Jersey , head of intellectual property rights for Huawei, said in the statement that "industry players should work together to push the industry forward through open, joint innovation."


"While respecting others' patents, we will also protect our own," he added.


Samsung did not immediately respond to an AFP query.


The California suit asks for unspecified damaged "to compensate Huawei for the patent infringement that has occurred, together with interest and costs," as well as royalties after the case is over Lance Lynn Jersey , if it prevails.
