Huawei, which helps car companies build better cars, has applied for some car-related patents

Although Huawei has long clarified its position on car manufacturing, speculation surrounding Huawei's car manufacturing has never stopped, probably because Huawei is too active in the automotive industry. Recently, it was discovered that Huawei has applied for a number of car-related patents.

According to the information displayed on Tianyancha, there are two vehicle-related patents in total, one of which is "vehicle positioning methods, devices, controllers, smart cars and systems."

According to the patent abstract, this technology is used to solve positioning problems when there is no GPS signal or the signal is weak. It uses a special algorithm to guess the current location of the car owner, which is very beneficial for driving in some remote areas.

The other is a patent for "vehicle-mounted antenna module and vehicle-mounted communication terminal".

According to the abstract, this patent is more about controlling the temperature of the vehicle-mounted antenna and communication during operation. From a technical level, there is nothing particularly outstanding. It can only ensure that the antenna and communication can operate stably under high temperature conditions.

From positioning without GPS signals to stable operation of antennas and communications under high temperature conditions, I wonder which pain point in the automotive industry Huawei is targeting this time. Perhaps it is off-road vehicles in extreme environments.

However, as the layout of smart cars becomes clearer and clearer, these actions of Huawei are also expected. Recently, at the launch of BYD Han's new energy flagship car, Huawei Consumer CEO Yu Chengdong also came to the venue to promote the new product. I believe that in the future, we will see more topics related to Huawei and smart cars.
