BARCELONA, Spain, Feb. 28,
2024 /PRNewswire/ -- During MWC Barcelona 2024,
Liu Kang, President of Huawei ICT
Marketing & Solution Sales, delivered a keynote speech titled
"Embracing 5.5G to Unleash Industry Dividends" at the 5G Advanced:
Completing the Enterprise Opportunity conference. Liu Kang said that 5G has become a must for
industry digitalization and that upgrading to 5.5G is expected to
enhance network capabilities by 10-fold. This, he noted, will drive
industries to accelerate intelligent digital transformation and
further unleash industry dividends.

Supported by 5.5G's key features such as 10 Gbps downlink, 1
Gbps uplink, deterministic network, support for 100 billion IoT
connections, and native intelligence, operators can provide
enterprise users with better connectivity services and a wider
range of integrated ICT services. Such services will effectively
support the core production processes of enterprises, and enable
the all-scenario connection of things and more reliable intelligent
transportation, thus accelerating both social and economic
development.
Providing better connectivity services to enhance SME
connectivity
Supported by 5.5G, FWA will continue evolving towards FWA² that
features 20-ms low latency and high reliability. Operators will
replace microwave lines and low-speed copper lines with better
connectivity services, extending FWA services from home to
enterprise scenarios, enhancing the connectivity of SMEs and
maximizing network value.
Offering a wider range of integrated ICT services to
accelerate industry digitalization
With its enhanced capabilities, 5.5G provides guaranteed speeds
of 300 Mbps, 20-ms latency at 99.999% reliability. Furthermore, by
supporting additional industry demands, such as networking,
computing, cloud, and IoT, 5.5G will create "X capabilities" for
industries, driving the digitalization and automation of more
application scenarios in the future.
Providing effective support for enterprises' core production
processes to increase production efficiency
5.5G enables uplink rates up to 1 Gbps, latency as low as 4 ms,
and reliability as high as 99.999%. These capabilities can
effectively support the core production processes of enterprises,
significantly enhancing their production efficiency. Taking
production at coal mines as an example, many underground mines have
a fully-mechanized mining face that is longer than 100 meters.
Thanks to 5.5G's ultra-large uplink capability, over 100 HD cameras
can be deployed for real-time video uploading, and AI technology is
employed to stitch panoramic videos from fully-mechanized mining
faces. This 5.5G smart mine solution realizes "see all, see
clearly" for underground operations. This is how 5.5G technology
can contribute to health and safety regarding underground
mining.
Adapting to IoT requirements across all scenarios to
accelerate the development of a market of 100 billion IoT
connections
5.5G enhancements can be seen in areas like uplink bandwidth,
latency, positioning, and passive tagging, which can meet IoT
requirements across all scenarios. The declining cost of RedCap and
passive IoT devices is driving the IoT market to scale up faster
and move towards achieving 100 billion IoT connections.
Enabling vehicle-road collaboration to improve driving safety
and traffic management efficiency
By the end of 2023, the global connected vehicle count had
reached 350 million. 5.5G Macro Sites enableto deliver low latency
of 20 ms and high reliability of 99%, thereby accelerating
vehicle-road collaboration for enhanced driving safety and traffic
management efficiency. This solution has been verified from end to
end in Shanghai, and is projected
to improve traffic management efficiency by 30% and reduce average
commute times by 20%. Liu Kang noted
that close industry partnerships are instrumental in unlocking the
benefits of 5.5G. Huawei is committed to working with industry and
ecosystem partners to explore the wide-ranging applications of 5.5G
technology, and bring about a new era of intelligent
interconnection of industry applications. This will enable all
participants to benefit from 5.5G development and enjoy shared
success.
