Shanghai (China), Gizmologi – Huawei has shown up in full force for MWC Shanghai 2023, with their activities all falling under their theme of “GUIDE to the Intelligent World”. This year, the company will do a tour to teach people about their technology and business in different cities. They will also launch new products and solutions for 5GigaGreen, 5G intelligent core networks, Intelligent OptiX Networks, private line + X products, and other digital transformation solutions.
MWC Shanghai 2023 runs from June 28 to June 30 in Shanghai, China. Huawei will showcase its products and solutions at stands E10 and E50 in Hall N1 of Shanghai New International Expo Centre (SNIEC). Together with global operators, industry professionals, and opinion leaders, we dive into topics such as speeding up 5G prosperity, striding towards the 5.5G era, and intelligent digital transformation. 5.5G creates new business value in areas like connecting people, Internet of Things (IoT), and Internet of Vehicles (IoV), supporting countless industries as they move towards an intelligent world.
Huawei will host activities with operators, partners, and leaders to discuss 5G prosperity, digital transformation, and moving towards 5.5G to create value for business, industry and society.The company says its goal is to create new value for customers and revitalize the digital economy through sustained innovation.
In her keynote titled “Embracing 5G Transformation,” Sabrina Meng, Huawei’s Rotating Chairwoman and CFO, explained that the future intelligent world’s digital infrastructure will be deeply integrated into all aspects of our lives, industry, and society. This integration will not be based on individual technological advancements but rather on complex systems that converge multiple elements. To achieve this, systems-level thinking and design are essential.
Two key area for the success of 5G
Meng used a chess analogy to illustrate the importance of systematic capabilities in integrating technology and transforming management for the success of 5G. She emphasized two key areas: integrating different technologies and management transformation.
Integrating different technologies involves achieving greater synergy across cloud, networks, edge, and devices through systematic design and innovation across domains. By optimizing software, hardware, chips, and algorithms while addressing challenges specific to various industrial scenarios, complex solutions can be developed.
Management transformation is not solely about technology; it also requires redefining the relationships between people, events, things, and theory. Adopting a more open and forward-looking management approach is crucial for addressing future challenges in the digital and intelligent transformation journey.
There are currently over 1.2 billion 5G users worldwide, and operators who moved quickly to develop 5G are already enjoying the first wave of benefits. This is thanks to the increasing network requirements being set by new applications in various markets. Consumer services like New Calling, cloud phones, and glasses-free 3D need faster data rates and lower latency. The RedCap ecosystem is advanced in the industrial market. The passive IoT market is expanding. The Internet of Vehicles (IoV) requires faster uplink speeds.These all-scenario applications are expected to result in 100 billion connections. These new service models are also expected to drive industry upgrades that will create a second wave of benefits.
Commercial 5G services hit the market four years ago, and have since been introduced to more than 17,000 private-network projects around the world. Both revenue from 5G private networks and the number of industrial connections have tripled. In addition, many operators have leveraged the CNY10 billion in revenue earned from 5GtoB private networks to drive a CNY100 billion increase in DICT revenue from cloud, data storage, and platform services. 5GtoB services were first tested in China and have now spread to other regions like Asia Pacific, Europe, the Middle East, and Africa.These services allow industry customers to reduce costs and improve efficiency, while enabling intelligent digital transformation in industries like manufacturing, ports, mines, oil fields, and healthcare.
5.5G is also rapidly approaching for the communications industry. 5.5G technologies are expected to improve network capabilities 10-fold and create 100 times more business opportunities for operators. At this year’s MWC Shanghai, Huawei is showcasing four of the major features of 5.5G – 10 Gbit/s downlink, 1 Gbit/s uplink, 100 billion connections, and native AI. The company is researching the five main areas where 5.5G connectivity is expected to be used: people, things, vehicles, industries, and homes.Huawei has already started helping a number of operators around the world begin commercial verification of 5.5G. The 5.5G industry will continue growing quickly as the first release of 5.5G standards is expected to be frozen in the first half of 2024 and related technologies have already been extensively verified.
