China’s first big helicopter takes off

Image
It is called the AC313 and it is China’s newest aviation product. According to Chinese news sites, the large-scale helicopter made by Aviation Industry Corporation of China (中国航空工业集团公司) fills a gap in the country’s homemade offer. The AC313 took its first flight on the 18. March in Jingdezhen (景德镇), Jiangxi province (江西). Capable of transporting 27 passengers or 15 injured and lifting up to 13,8 tons, the helicopter is designed for a wide range of civil applications like disaster relief, fire-fighting, sightseeing, etc… It has a maximum autonomy of 900 kilometers. Its flight capabilities are suited both for assistance work in densely populated urban areas as well as for reaching remote mountainous places. It is thus an important tool for China’s diverse geographical and demographical realities. China Flying Dragon Special Aviation Company (中国飞龙专业航空公司 ) will be the first to make use of it.

Artificial blood made from stem cells could be used in transfusions in just two years

Image
Add to My Stories Share Artificial blood created from stem cells could be tested on Britons within two years. The scientists behind the research, which could provide industrial scale quantities of blood, believe it will transform transfusions by preventing hospital shortages, and save thousands of lives on battlefields and at the scene of car crashes. Heart transplant, bypass and cancer patients would also benefit from having a guaranteed supply of blood on hand for their surgery. Breakthrough: The blood made from stem cells would transform blood transfusions by preventing shortages in hospitals and prove a lifesaver on battlefields and at the scene of car crashes The holy grail of blood research, the man-made blood would be free of infections that have blighted natural supplies and could be given to almost everyone regardless of blood group. The hope comes from Edinburgh and Bristol university researchers who have, for the first time, made thousands of millions of red blood c...

LTE gets faster. Much faster.

Image
Ericsson, one of the biggest proponents of mobile broadband in general, and LTE in particular has demoed a new variant of the technology called LTE Advanced which is ten times faster than todays commercial LTE networks. Ericsson, showed off LTE Advanced using commercial hardware in Kista Sweden for the Swedish Post and Telecom Agency (PTS.) The system, based on commercial hardware, was operating on a test frequency provided by the PTS. This enabled Ericsson to demonstrate LTE Advanced functionality such as carrier aggregation of 3 x 20MHz (60MHz aggregated) over the air in a mobile environment for the first time. The demo system was based on Ericssons multi-mode, multi-standard radio base station, RBS 6000. Live traffic was streamed between the RBS and a moving van from which network performance could be monitored. In the demonstration, 60MHz of aggregated bandwidth was used, compared to the 20MHz maximum that is currently possible using LTE. In the downlink, 88 MIMO was used. ( Ericss...
