My Country Will Open 1.4 Million 5G Base Stations By The End Of The Year

This year is a period of large-scale 5G construction, and my country will open 1.4 million 5G base stations by the end of the year. In terms of industry applications, the three major operators and various industries have thoroughly explored 5G application scenarios.

The Ministry of Industry and Information Technology recently held a national 5G industry application large-scale development meeting and survey in Shenzhen and Dongguan, Guangdong. According to the information disclosed by the three major operators, my country has opened more than 970,000 5G base stations.

China Mobile has opened more than 500,000 5G base stations, developed more than 250 million 5G package customers, and more than 120 million network customers. Dong Xin, general manager of China Mobile, said that it will promote multi-frequency coordination, continue to forge 2.6GHz, 4.9GHz, 700MHz multi-frequency three-dimensional network, and open more than 700,000 5G base stations by the end of the year, which is expected to account for more than 1/3 of the global 5G base station scale. Basically, good coverage of cities, counties, urban areas, key towns, and key regions nationwide has been achieved.

China Telecom and China Unicom have opened a total of 478,000 5G base stations. The 5G network covers all prefecture-level and above urban areas and core urban areas of developed counties in the country. Through co-construction and sharing, China Telecom and China Unicom have doubled progress, doubled coverage, doubled bandwidth, and doubled speed. At present, the two parties have launched the third phase of the project, and it is expected that by the end of this year, the scale of 5G shared base stations will exceed 700,000 stations.

The network is the foundation, and the application is the key. On July 13, ten departments including the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, the Office of Cyberspace Affairs, and the National Development and Reform Commission jointly issued the "5G Application "Sailing" Action Plan (2021-2023)", clarifying that by 2023, my country's 5G application development level will be significantly improved and comprehensive strength will continue to increase. Create a new ecosystem of in-depth integration of IT (information technology), CT (communication technology), and OT (operation technology), achieve breakthroughs in the depth and breadth of 5G applications in key areas, and build a dual pillar of technology industry and standard system, network, platform, security and other foundations Capabilities are further improved, and the situation of 5G applications "setting sails" has gradually taken shape.

In terms of applications, the three major operators and all walks of life are deeply exploring 5G applications. Dong Xin said that China Mobile has expanded more than 200 industry-leading demonstration projects, more than 4,000 5G commercialization projects, and deployed 9 major industry platforms. In the future, it will promote scenario-based standardized solutions to realize the transformation from "model houses" to "commercial houses". Quick conversion. By the end of the "14th Five-Year Plan" period, we will strive to cover more than one million enterprises and institutions.

Li Zheng Mao, general manager of China Telecom, said that China Telecom is speeding up the construction of 5G customized networks. As of the end of June, 5G customized network services have been provided to more than 4,500 government and enterprise customers, and more than 360 customized network commercial projects have been successfully implemented.

China Telecom focuses on typical 5G industry application scenarios such as 5G+ mines, 5G+ steel, 5G+ energy, 5G+ electronics, 5G+ ports, and cooperates with many industry leaders such as Skyworth, Shendong Coal, Meishan Steel, State Grid Qingdao, Midea Group, Wuhu Port Carry out in-depth cooperation.

China Unicom focuses on the industrial Internet, medical and health, smart mining, smart city and other industries. The system has deployed digital R&D, smart manufacturing, networked collaboration, personalized customization, service-oriented extension, lean management and other scene solutions, creating more than 300 scenarios More than 2,000 5G lighthouse projects have been promoted and copied.
