5G lacks "soul"? Advanced technology is coming

Recently, at the 2021 Global Digital Economy Conference-"5G+" Innovation Development Forum, Zhang Ping, an academician of the Chinese Academy of Engineering, put forward the topic of 5G evolution to 5.5G, and said that, unlike the 5G development direction, 5.5G will focus on vertical industries Extension.

 

From the current situation, 5.5G technology is still based on the original theoretical basis of 5G, but the direction of technology upgrade is to develop the original 5G basic scenes to a deeper dimension, making these scenes more "soul".

Why is it difficult to find a "classic" in the 5G scene

My country has built the world's largest 5G network, and the scene of interconnection of everything around us is increasing day by day. However, judging from the 5G scenes we actually experience around us, although the senses are wonderful, it seems that something is missing. What is going on?

 

First of all, it is not difficult for us to find that the truly practical 5G scenarios, whether in the to B market or the to C market, seem to lack "classic works." Secondly, most of the current 5G scenarios are widely used in industrial enterprises. Although there is no shortage of scenarios in the C-side market, there are still too few users. Most C-side developers are still in the difficult stage of burning money to grab the market.

 

The real reason for the lack of user enthusiasm is that the current 5G scene still lacks "soul" and lacks more "smart" scenes. Therefore, it is imperative to extend the 5.5G scenario technology to the direction of intelligent service capabilities. Just as Academician Zhang Ping said, it is necessary to focus on the expansion of the industry.

 

5.5G Technology Brings All Things to "Intelligent Connectivity" Era

In April this year, at the 46th meeting of the International Telecommunications Standards Organization 3GPP, the 5G evolution technology was formally confirmed as 5G-Advanced. In the industry, 5G-Advanced is also called 5.5G. From the perspective of globally recognized 5G technical standards, the current 5G is aimed at the three standard scenarios defined by the ITU, supporting only the preliminary interconnection of everything, while the recently proposed 5.5G technology solves the problems raised above and will Give the scene more "soul".

 

Academician Zhang Ping pointed out that with the evolution of 5G to 5.5G, in addition to the original triangular capabilities of mobile bandwidth enhancement, ultra-reliable low-latency, and massive machine-type communications, uplink ultra-wideband, broadband real-time interaction, and communication perception fusion capabilities have been added. . On the basis of the three original 5G standard scenarios, three new scenarios have been expanded-UCBC, RTBC, and HCS, turning the triangle defined by the 5G scenario into a 5.5G hexagon, making everything truly "moving".

 

In other words, 5.5G technology will bring more "wisdom" to the scene, allowing everything to be upgraded from "interconnection" to "intelligence connection."
