KUALA LUMPUR, May 29 -- The official website of Sichuan Provincial Government has released the Reply and Approval from Sichuan Provincial People's Government for the Founding of the Eastern Chengdu New Area.
According to the document, the Chengdu Eastern New Area will become a ‘new platform for the formation of the Chengdu-Chongqing Economic Circle’. In October 2019, according to a ranking compiled by the Milken Institute, a think-tank in the United States, which ranked 262 Chinese cities based on nine development indices, Chengdu even surpassed Shenzhen to top the list of Best-performing Chinese Cities. In order to stimulate industrial impetus and potential, incubate and cultivate local technological and innovative enterprises, and attract more technological and innovative firms to set up presence in the city, Chengdu created a ‘Unicorn Island’ in Tianfu New Area in the south of the city. Based on a statement, the gathering and growth of enterprises bring along busier population and cargo traffic between cities and as the national central city closest to Europe, Chengdu's status as an international hub is also becoming increasingly apparent. The Tianfu International Airport is now under construction and expected to operate in 2021, which will position Chengdu as the third city in the Chinese mainland behind Beijing and Shanghai to possess two of its own international airports. At the same time, Chengdu is also China's railway freight shipping centre for access to Europe. The departure of the China-Europe Railway Express from Chengdu has maintained its top spot in the country for three straight years. -- BERNAMA

Hytera RoIP solution based on the convergent broadband and narrowband platform delivers both multi-network roaming and fast broadband services, such as video calling. This press release features multimedia. View the full release here: https://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20200521005340/en/ First responders are facing growing challenges worldwide from public safety crises such as terrorist attacks and pandemics, as well as environmental disasters like wildfires and floods. Public safety personnel must be able to respond quickly and effectively to these challenges. Hytera multi-mode advanced RoIP-enabled radios fulfill this need. These smart, easy-to-use radios reduce workloads and allow public safety personnel to concentrate on the tasks that matter most. For more information about Hytera's latest multi-mode advanced radio solutions, please visit: https://pardot.hytera.com/MAR-form-en/PR What is RoIP Traditional narrowband professional mobile radio (PMR) networks often have limited coverage and are unable to support rich multimedia broadband communications, which are increasingly in demand by emergency services and mission-critical communications users. However, mission-critical instant push-to-talk (PTT) voice services still play an essential role in the daily work of public safety personnel. The solution is to deploy Hytera multi-mode advanced radios that retain mission-critical voice communication, but also support the new broadband applications public safety organizations want to access. Hytera RoIP solution, a form of Voice over IP (VoIP) with a mission-critical PTT feature, combined with Hytera HyTalk Pro and narrowband trunking system provides an intelligent platform to deliver integrated narrowband mission-critical one-to-one and one-to-multiple voice services, and a wide range of multimedia broadband services such as video calls, video pulling, multimedia message and mobile internet access over 3G, 4G, WLAN and private LTE networks. This deep integration delivers a unified communication experience and a more luxurious convergent experience to users. One of the essential keys to this convergent experience is the intelligent network selection mechanism whereby the radios automatically switch between narrowband and broadband networks based on the signal strength and preference. The multi-mode advanced radios preferentially access the narrowband network for voice services, but if there is a weak or no signal, the radio will automatically switch seamlessly over to the broadband network. The radio ID remains the same whichever network is being used. Three typical user scenarios 1.Emergency response The RoIP solution in the radios ensures the police officers responding to an incident have access to reliable, always-available, and instant voice communications. When they are outside the narrowband network, they can talk to each other using a public broadband network. Officers can stream live video to control room dispatchers, which improves situational awareness, enabling police to make better-informed decisions and to deliver a more effective response. 2.Firefighting Firefighters entering buildings, basements, or tunnels may lose their narrowband network signal, but the RoIP in their multi-mode advanced radios enables them to continue communicating with each other using public broadband networks. Firefighters can use the broadband capability on their radios to connect to hands-free Bluetooth accessories, which can monitor their vital signs and report relevant information to the command center in real-time. 3.Wide range patrol Police on wide range patrols can rely on intelligent network selection and intuitive radio operation to keep voice channels on the radio available. If they patrol out of the narrowband network coverage area, the radio will switch automatically to the public broadband network without the user's awareness of the change. Hytera also provides a range of smart accessories, including Carkit and convert camera. The radios can be mounted in the patrol car using a Carkit and connected to a larger display like a tablet. The VM220 convert camera with headset allows police officers to talk, record video, and transmit it to the control center in real-time - all without holding the radio.
