The annual World Mobile Communications Conference (MWC2018) was held in Barcelona, Spain, from February 26th to March 1st. In the current MWC, 5G is undoubtedly the most popular topic. Operators, equipment providers and chips and test vendors have focused on 5G related technologies and products. According to industry expectations, 2019 will be the first year of the 5G commercial year, and by 2020, 5G will be widely used worldwide.

The extension includes the industry research institute research associate Xie Yushan to the twenty-first Century economic report reporter analysis pointed out that with the development of 3GPP, completed in June 2018 15 Release 5G communication standard in 2018, the industry will set off 5G technology contest. From the global 5G development, both the chip and the equipment vendors have a solution, and the commercialization of 5G has been basically in place. In 2018, in addition to Qualcomm, Intel or HUAWEI to become a leader in 5G and other large manufacturers such as Samsung, MediaTek and Spreadtrum, will continue to release its chip products.

Pass the end to the end

On this year's MWC, HUAWEI has an exhibition booth of over 6300 square meters. The Chinese manufacturer released a complete end-to-end solution during the conference, including wireless network, bearer network, core network, chip, CPE, and full Cloud Architecture. According to the introduction, relying on the product solution, HUAWEI has deployed 5G scale site in more than ten countries including China, Korea, Canada, Germany, Great Britain and Italy.

In addition, HUAWEI also released the first 3GPP standard 5G commercial chip -- Barone 5G01 and the first 3GPP standard 5G commercial terminal based on the chip -- HUAWEI 5G CPE (5G user terminal).

According to reports, Barone 5G01 is the first commercially available, based on the 5G chip of the 3GPP standard, the measured peak downlink rate of up to 2Gbps, is 20 times the peak rate of 100M fiber, can support the future 5G network VR VR HD video online, online games and entertainment applications based on video, and is compatible with both 4G and 5G network.

According to HUAWEI Hass staff, HUAWEI 5G chip project started earlier, because the standard before he decided to put the chip, in addition to covering the content of the standard, but also contains some non-standard content. At present, Hass chip is constantly improved, HUAWEI will launch commercial 5G intelligent mobile phone next year.

The press conference site, HUAWEI consumer business CEO Yu Chengdong also issued a terminal strategy for the 5G era. In the future, HUAWEI will launch a series of terminals, including 5G smart phones, 5G CPE, 5G Mobile WiFi, 5G car box and so on.

As we all know, network and terminal are two basic conditions of 5G business, and the connection of end-to-end (network to terminal) capability can meet the requirements of "all things interconnection" to highly integrate innovation. In the whole chain, the chip is the core and the foundation, and it is also the key link in the development and maturity of the 5G industry.

Before the 5G standard freeze, Qualcomm and Intel have released the 5G commercial baseband chip, the Qualcomm chip is called Snapdragon X50, the Intel chip is called XMM8060, and the two 5G baseband chip is expected to be used for 5G smartphone in the first half of 2019.

In addition, Samsung also expects to push the 5G baseband Exynos 5G this year. Purple exhibition and joint development department also actively follow up the research and development of 5G chip. It is expected to launch the first commercial 5G mobile platform in the second half of 2019. ZTE also said that at the end of 2018 or early 2019, ZTE will release the 5G commercial mobile terminal.

Xie Yushan introduction, because 5G technology covers a wide bandwidth, in the development of general 5G baseband chip is divided into two blocks, one for the frequency below 6GHz and millimeter wave band, input vendors including Qualcomm, Intel, HUAWEI, Samsung, etc.; another is to support the frequency below 6GHz, input manufacturers including Spreadtrum, MediaTek etc. at present, the frequency below 6GHz has been applied to 4G LTE.

At the 2018 Olympic Winter Games in Pingchang, Intel joined Korea communications service provider KT to build the world's first large-scale 5G network, including 22 5G links deployed in 10 Olympic venues, supporting 3800TB network capacity.

South Korea KT booth staff to the twenty-first Century economic report reporter, multi-channel camera can capture the multi player movements. After uploading through the large bandwidth of 5G, it can send to Samsung's 5G mobile phone, and the audience can watch the game in all directions.

This is a successful demonstration of the world's largest 5G technology, proving the possibility of a wide range of 5G applications at the technical level. Intel also announced the deployment of 5G technology for the Tokyo Olympic Games in 2020, including the provision of 360 degree 8K video stream, smart city sensors and all connected vehicles, and 5G's rich data for targeted training of athletes.

Global manufacturer prepares

As you can see from the 2018MWC site, vendors are beginning to show more and more 5G commercial devices, instead of the prototypes that are usually seen in the past. The application scenes of 5G are also noticeable, such as 5G games, time slicing (Time Slice), etc.

ZTE has demonstrated the 5G commercial business cooperation and key technology validation at the conference, including the 5G outfield experimental network close to commercial form, the first multi vendor IoDT test based on 3GPP standard and the first Telecom end product 5G end product commercial network slicing in the industry.

Intel has shown the first prototype of a two in one PC supporting 5G and the progress of integrating 5G technology into a mobile PC platform. Intel expects the first 5G full - connected PC will be listed in the second half of 2019.

At this exhibition, Qualcomm has released a large number of 5G real networks in the past few months.
