Preparing for 5G: Can China Unicom in the 5G era catch up?

From 3G to 4G, the landscape of the communications industry is changing, which means that the impact of information technology upgrades on the market is crucial. Today, 5G is also on the agenda. In the golden age of missing 4G development, can China Unicom catch this bus?

Prepare for 5G

The so-called 5G is the abbreviation of the fifth generation mobile communication and its technology. Compared with 4G, 5G will meet people's demand for ultra-high traffic density, ultra-high connection density and ultra-high mobility, and can provide users with high-definition video and virtual reality. Extreme business experiences such as augmented reality, cloud desktops and online gaming. Simply put, 5G is faster than the current 4G speed.

It is reported that the speed of 5G network is 100 times faster than the existing 4G. People can easily download applications, browse web pages and watch high-definition videos without much time.

However, at present, 5G is still in the promotion stage, and there is still a long way from formal commercial use.

The urgent need for network technology upgrades is mainly due to the rapid increase in user traffic demand.

Wang Tao, president of Huawei's wireless network product line, said that according to industry forecasts, the traffic demand by 2020 is seven times that of current, and the existing network technology cannot support it. It is expected that the outbreak of data traffic in the future will bring huge impacts and challenges to the carrier network.

According to the overall deployment of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, China's 5G basic R&D test will be carried out from 2016 to 2018. In order to seize the opportunities, the three major operators in China have already launched the preliminary layout.

China Unicom has been more active. At present, China Unicom has given a 5G planning timetable. It plans to complete the key technology layout of the 5G end-to-end network architecture and complete the 5G OpenLab construction to meet the 5G service demonstration and single-point technical performance verification. It is expected to realize Unicom in 2020. 5G network commercial.

Some analysts believe that in the 4G era, with the advantage of the policy of giving the run, China Mobile has already been riding the dust, and China Telecom and China Unicom can only follow and warm up. But when it comes to 5G, there will be no more standards for different networks. The same 5G standard will be used globally. The technology and standards will have the true right to speak. If China Mobile leads again, Telecom Unicom has little chance of catching up, and even the ability to compete will be very reluctant.

In the layout of the 5G preparation, no one dares to take it lightly. In the communications industry, the power of technology has a profound impact.

Xiang Ligang, a senior telecommunications industry person, said: "Any operator with a technology license can be in a favorable position in the conversion process. There are 5G, 6G, and many new conversions. Who can master it first? New technologies, licenses, and entry points are likely to lead the way."

Not only China Unicom has made a 5G layout, but the other two operators are equally enthusiastic.

China Mobile has now developed a 5G test plan that is synchronized with the country. It is understood that as early as 2014, China Mobile has publicly stated that it will support the development of 5G projects. According to the plan, China Mobile will strengthen its work in 5G standards development, technology verification, industry chain construction and product maturity, and establish a 5G joint innovation center, focusing on basic communication capabilities, Internet of Things, Internet of Vehicles, Industrial Internet, cloud robots, Six key work areas, such as virtual/augmented reality, promote 5G innovation development.

Looks beautiful - China Telecom is the same

It is reported that China Telecom has cooperated with Huawei and Beijing University of Posts and Telecommunications and other academic institutions to conduct various tests on 5G networks. Previously, China Telecom also reached cooperation with a number of local governments such as Guangdong Province to conduct research and development and testing in related fields.

Shen Shaoai, deputy general manager of the technical department of China Telecom Group Corporation, said that by 2018, China Telecom will continue to carry out in-depth 5G network evolution architecture and key technology research and technical concept verification, and propose 4G to 5G evolution technology solutions according to their own needs; 2018 to In 2020, 4G will introduce 5G system and networking capability verification, and realize trial commercial deployment of some mature 5G technologies.

It is worth noting that due to the speed, the arrival of 5G is very likely to become the last straw to overwhelm fixed broadband. In fact, the application of 4G network has already had a great impact on the cable broadband network, and the faster 5G network will undoubtedly speed up this process.

Due to the accumulation of history, China Unicom and China Telecom have stronger optical fiber networks than China Mobile, and after entering 5G, the broadband business advantages of the two will be further resolved.

According to market analysts, China Mobile currently has hundreds of billions of cash deposits compared to China Unicom and China Telecom. It has stronger capital and upgrade impulses, which means that China Mobile is the leader in the new technology competition. There is sufficient funding to drive, as well as investment infrastructure.

For China Unicom, 5G is also a difficult bone, but it cannot be ignored.

In fact, not only the three major operators have promoted 5G, but the various rings in the communication industry chain are in the process of preparation, in case they cannot keep up with the market and miss the future.

Recently, Qualcomm announced in Hong Kong the world's first X50 modem with 5G network, the world's first commercial 5G modem chipset solution. This product is designed to support OEMs to build next-generation cellular terminals and assist operators with early 5G testing and deployment.

Qualcomm's move is to take the lead in 5G technology, patents and standards.

It is reported that Qualcomm, Intel, Ericsson, Huawei, and ZTE are all conducting 5G research and innovation. These global communications and network giants are planning and storing technology ahead of time in the R&D stage of 5G technology. It is naturally a game for the future to win the initiative in the 5G era.

Before the new technology comes to the ground, the big companies in the communications industry will generally be laid out three or four years in advance. When the market really starts, it will be the first to eat crabs.

Promote the active placement of 5G in all sectors of the industry, mainly in the prospect of the latter.

The fact is that, like 3G and 4G, 5G will promote a major leap in mobile communication technologies and products, and drive the rapid development of related industries such as chips and devices. Once the 5G network is officially commercialized, the industry generally believes that it will be expected to shake up the scale. The trillion-dollar IoT industry.
