SHANGHAI, June 27,
2024 /CNW/ -- During MWC Shanghai 2024, Chen Hao, President of Carrier Business at
Huawei, delivered a keynote speech. He noted that while primary
innovation unleashes technology dividends, secondary innovation
accelerates business success, and pointed out that 5G is currently
undergoing secondary innovation.
China has built the world's
largest and most advanced 5G networks, and by May this year, the
number of 5G users in China
exceeded 890 million, accounting for over 52% of the global total.
Bolstered by this incredible progress, information and
communications technologies like 5G are rapidly developing into an
integral part of every sector and domain in China.
During his keynote entitled "Secondary 5G Innovation: Charting a
New Course for Business Success", Chen said, "China's success in 5G is a result of ceaseless
exploration, effective practices, and endless innovation. Just as
James Watt's improvements to the
steam engine sparked the Industrial Revolution, secondary 5G
innovation is expected to accelerate monetization in three areas –
user scenarios, network-cloud-intelligence synergy, and ecosystem
collaboration – for a new stage of business success."
Scenario innovation: Reinventing the value of user groups and
scenarios to accelerate multi-metric network monetization
Today, China has 150 million
registered livestreaming users. Thanks to 5G's high uplink speeds
and priority-based network access, operators in the country can
meet these users' requirements for videos that offer higher
definition and zero stuttering. Furthermore, more than 15
provincial operators in China have
released livestreaming packages with guaranteed uplink speeds.
Networks are becoming increasingly capable of supporting new
features like user- and service-specific acceleration,
deterministic experience, and visualized user perception, and these
advances will extend livestreaming to more scenarios, user groups,
and applications. The value of user groups and scenarios will thus
be reinvented, accelerating network monetization through different
metrics.
Integrated innovation: New gateway to industry IoT services
through network-cloud-intelligence synergy
New Calling and cloud phone services will serve as a gateway to
more individual digital services, while Internet of Vehicles (IoV)
and Internet of Video Things (IoVT) services create new
opportunities for industry connectivity. Innovation that integrates
5G, cloud, and AI will drive such services forward.
AI-generated content (AIGC) is only the starting point for New
Calling to deliver unparalleled user experience. With the
incubation of more consumer- and business-oriented high-value
application scenarios, such as replacing traditional enterprise
hotlines with AI assistants, New Calling will become even more
engaging, convenient, and valuable.
Cloud phones can already deliver experiences that almost match
those of physical phones. Delivering 2K resolution and latency as low as 100 ms, cloud
phones are well on their way to offering higher-resolution display
and smoother interaction that are comparable to those found on a
physical phone.
For IoV and IoVT, RedCap technology can support connectivity
services with optimal performance, at optimal cost. The RedCap
ecosystem for chips, modules, and devices is already mature,
meaning it allows operators to quickly establish industry
benchmarks. With contiguous network coverage, alongside new
capabilities like slicing and edge cloud computing, new high-value
applications will be developed to support new IoT services for
industries, such as smart manufacturing and industrial
automation.
Collaborative innovation: E2E industry collaboration boosts
video service traffic
Current video services, whether short videos, long videos, or
video calls, typically deliver 540p or 720p resolution, meaning
user experience has much room for improvement. As part of its
efforts to improve consumer experience and maximize China's leading network capabilities, Huawei
advocated "moving towards a full HD era" at the recent event "HD
China: Forum on High-Quality Development of Mobile Video in the AI
Era". Huawei also called on players from across the industry to
collaborate on breakthroughs in glasses-free 3D content,
technology, and experience, so that everyone can benefit.
In terms of 5G business success, monetization will rely heavily
on reinventing the value of user groups and scenarios; services
strategies will require network-cloud-intelligence synergy; and
collaboration on new types of video services will be key to
boosting network traffic. Concluding his speech, Chen stated that
Huawei will go all out to support operators in propelling secondary
5G innovation and embracing commercial 5.5G to take 5G business
success to the next level.
MWC Shanghai 2024 will be held from June
26 to June 28 in Shanghai,
China. During the event, Huawei will showcase its latest
products and solutions at stands E10 and E50 in Hall N1 of the
Shanghai New International Expo Centre (SNIEC).
2024 will mark the first year of commercial 5.5G, and F5.5G
gigabit optical network deployment has already begun. Synergies
across networks, cloud, and intelligence are set to give rise to
pervasive intelligent applications and increasingly diverse user
experiences. Together with global operators, industry
professionals, and opinion leaders, Huawei will dive into exciting
topics at this year's MWC Shanghai, like how to amplify 5G's
success in the 5.5G era and how to tap into the potential of
operator revenue growth to bring us even faster to the intelligent
world. For more information, please
