With the wide application of telemedicine, the loading and unloading efficiency of smart port is improved with the support of 5g, and the remote control of shearer by 5g network reduces the number of underground workers... With the rapid penetration of 5g technology into various industries, 5gtob is regarded as the next tuyere. The large-scale development of this field also puts forward higher requirements for communication technology.
On April 27, Huawei announced its new progress in the field of 5.5G technology, targeting markets such as yuancosmos and the Internet of vehicles. Gan bin, vice president of Huawei's wireless network product line, said: "the further upgrading of 5.5G capacity will drive the upgrading of industrial digital intelligence."
So, how much can Huawei's "heavy deployment" on 5.5G promote the industrial chain?
5.5g and 5g are essentially homologous
In fact, Huawei first disclosed the 5.5G concept to the outside world in 2020. At that time, Huawei's 5g terminal business was blocked. Huawei's managing director Wang Tao told the outside world that in order to promote the development of 5g scenario, Huawei launched the 5.5G project.
Innovative applications based on 5g are constantly emerging, and its technology is not evolving and enhancing. However, the iconic application of 5g has yet to appear.
Last year, 3GPP proposed 5g advanced, the next stage of 5g network, which is regarded as the next peak of communication technology development in the industry. With the standardization of this technology research, 5.5G was officially proposed by Huawei.
The application scenario of 5.5G is more like derived from 5g. "The three new application scenarios of 5.5G are applied to a wider range of machine vision, XR and v2x Internet of vehicles markets, and put forward more specific requirements for 5g construction and commercial use. Therefore, Huawei, together with global mobile communication operators and equipment manufacturers, redefined 5.5G, a subset of 5g communication. 5.5G plays a transitional role between 5g and 6G. However, 5.5G and 5g are homologous in nature, but they are more subdivided in application scenarios." Yuan Bo, a communication engineer, told the reporter of Securities Daily.
"According to the actual market demand of different application scenarios, 5.5G defines different standards such as network intelligence and network energy saving, which will also be inherited by 6G standards in the future." Xiang Ligang, a high-level consulting expert for high-quality development of the Ministry of industry and information technology, told reporters.
promote the commercial maturity of metauniverse and Internet of vehicles
With the gradual maturity of 5.5G, various emerging application scenarios will also appear. Huawei is playing a big game in the layout of 5.5G. Hu houkun said that Huawei will more actively layout XR business and 5gtob market.
From the perspective of 5.5G new scenarios, uplink UWB is applied to machine vision and other industries; Broadband real-time interaction, applied in VR and other fields; It is mainly used for the integration of UAV and communication scenarios, and it is mainly used for the integration of UAV and automatic driving.
Among them, the applications of Huawei machine vision and Internet of vehicles are mainly concentrated in the industrial field and enterprise market, and the application of XR is gradually expanding from the consumer field to the industrial field.
"The realization of scenarios such as meta universe and Internet of vehicles requires large bandwidth and low delay technology. Huawei promotes the development of 5.5G, which will promote the maturity of 5gtob markets such as meta universe and Internet of vehicles to a certain extent." Huawei cloud MVP Ma Chao said.
Yuan Bo believes that Huawei's technologies such as super uplink, energy saving and adaptive algorithms can match the application requirements of 5.5G. In the industrial chain, equipment manufacturers and operators can continuously catalyze the development of 5g iconic applications such as XR and machine vision based on 5.5G in terms of technology, investment and use scenarios, so as to drive the development of 5g in tob industry. "In this way, 5g can really give full play to its technical value in thousands of industries and promote the benign development of the supply chain of the whole industry."
However, at present, metauniverse does not have mature commercial conditions. "The realization of metauniverse requires the deep collaboration of end pipe cloud. At present, both terminal and cloud capabilities are available, but the pipeline is not available, and the network support is limited. At the same time, although the advantages of 5.5G are the enhancement of uplink bandwidth and high-precision positioning, there will be a certain space for intelligent driving, but the chips are limited, and the industrial chain enterprises still need to make breakthroughs in key links." Yuan Bo thinks.
For Huawei, 5.5G can help it and industrial chain enterprises further promote the commercial use of 5g and realize the commercial realization of 5g technology. However, as China is in the early stage of digital transformation, there is still an adaptation process for the commercial use of 5.5G in thousands of industries. How to find the correct application scenario and how to balance the cost and commercial value required for 5g construction are still the problems that Huawei and other enterprises need to solve.
"The high cost of customized network, insufficient data security and insufficient video content are the problems faced by 5g business." "Commercial scale of 5g and 5.5 still has a long way to go," said Wang Zhiqin
According to Zeng Jianqiu, a professor at Beijing University of Posts and telecommunications, 5.5G was born on the basis of 5g, and the communication technology of various industries will gradually reach 5.5G. "It can't be done by one company alone, and it needs the joint efforts of industrial chain enterprises."
