5G development status: In addition to the "fast internet speed" in the eyes of ordinary people, what other development prospects are there?

2021.08.20

When it comes to 5G, people don’t know much about 5G. Many people only know that 5G is faster, which is nearly twice as fast as 4G. However, 5G, a global breakthrough, can be used for more than just "fast internet speed".


When it comes to 5G, people don’t know much about 5G. Many people only know that 5G is faster, which is nearly twice as fast as 4G. However, 5G, a global breakthrough, can be used for more than just "fast internet speed".


On June 6, 2019, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology issued 5G licenses to the three major operators and radio and television, which also means that 5G will carry out multi-faceted and deep-dimensional continuous development in China. However, the time for the issuance of the license is six months earlier than previously expected.

Regarding the early issuance of licenses, industry insiders speculate that it is largely related to communications companies such as Huawei and ZTE. Before Huawei was included in the US entity list, and the monitoring and security issues they encountered during the development process were accelerated. One of the factors contributing to the landing of 5G licenses.

Judging from the current 5G industry chain, no country in the world is fully prepared, but the license has been issued, which also means that the 5G industry has entered a new stage of development. As for whether 5G, like 4G, will become the material basis of the social industrial structure in the future, we cannot know the result for the time being.

As for 5G, ordinary people's understanding only stays at the level of "fast internet speed". In fact, 5G covers a wide range of areas. In the field of education, it can be applied to smart classrooms. In the medical field, it can use 5G+ remote ultrasound inspection, as well as new application scenarios such as intensive care.

The reason why 5G has received global attention is precisely because of its unlimited application prospects. Both our known business and our unknown business may involve the application of 5G technology.

 

Of course, if we want to realize the ultimate application of 5G technology, we must first lay a solid foundation in infrastructure. It has been two years since my country issued 5G licenses. What is expected is that my country has built the world’s largest 5G SA network, 5G. The number of infrastructure and co-built shared base stations reached 961,000 and 400,000 respectively.

In addition to being very good at home, my country's 5G technology and brand have been "famous overseas" and have become a new "Chinese business card".

As of May this year, there are 133 countries/regions and 443 operators investing in the 5G industry globally. More than 70% of the world's 5G base stations are constructed by China.

With the gradual introduction of 5G commercial applications, many new applications will appear in the future, but which ones will stand out in the end, let's take a look at which 5G applications are available!


One of the 5G applications for ordinary consumers-5G video

5G also plays an important role in the lives of ordinary consumers, such as 5G video. In the 4G era, short videos have been very popular among users. In the 5G era, with better network conditions, 5G videos will be more anticipated.

5G high broadband supports real-time refreshing of high-definition video. In short, as long as the tariff of 5G traffic is appropriate, the future 5G can be widely used in film, television, virtual VR, AR and other applications, such as watching football. If 5G video is used, it may be There are multiple perspectives, and you can directly hear the communication between the referee and the staff and so on.

One of the 5G applications for ordinary consumers-5G games

The large bandwidth and low latency of 5G networks surpass that of 4G networks, which is also considered to overturn the traditional game industry. If 5G is applied to the game industry in the future, there will be a large number of cloud games.

The so-called cloud game means that players can no longer buy expensive high-performance gaming equipment, and can process the game on the cloud platform, and players can experience it directly. Large-scale heavy games, mobile games, PC games, console games, etc. may all be cloud-based.


5G Application for Industrial Internet-Intelligent Manufacturing

In addition to 5G applications for ordinary consumers, in the field of industrial Internet, 5G technology will also be used. Take the manufacturing industry, in order to better cater to the needs of consumers, the manufacturing industry needs to exercise more precise control over the production process.

In recent years, intelligent manufacturing has begun to try to integrate 5G, cloud computing and AI technology to meet consumer flexible manufacturing needs through more flexible and efficient production systems.

At the beginning of this year, due to the severe epidemic situation, the Inspur server smart factory in Jinan adopted new technologies such as the Internet of Things and smart terminals. It took only one night to resume work smoothly. If it is a traditional manufacturing plant, one can imagine how difficult it is to resume work.

unmanned

For unmanned driving, the concept has been put forward for a long time, but it has not been put into action so far. In addition to the hidden safety hazards of unmanned driving, the immaturity of technology is also the point that everyone is most worried about.

The principle of unmanned driving is to control the vehicle by the intelligent driving of the information system. In industrial fields and specific parks, unmanned driving has been applied, but in daily life, unmanned driving is not popular.

As the concept of 5G becomes more and more popular, the cooperation between 5G and unmanned driving is getting closer. Some companies have applied 5G to unmanned driving before, and it is also the country's first unmanned vehicle with the largest load on highways.

Regarding unmanned driving technology, many industry experts believe that unmanned driving in a specific area can also be understood as intelligent logistics. The current application cases of this area are relatively mature. If coupled with the assistance of 5G technology, it will be more applied in the future. Mature.

5G technology is a new round of hot spots in the current global competition. All countries have deeply realized the importance of 5G technology. Especially in international competition, having advanced 5G technology will be very advantageous. At present, various countries are introducing 5G related strategies to support the development of 5G technology in their own countries.

In the face of the enthusiasm of 5G technology, China has not slowed down. At the same time, China’s 5G technology has also been recognized by many countries, building base stations, reaching 5G strategic cooperation, etc., China’s 5G technology has become another A new business card facing the world.
