Huawei received the ‘Outstanding Contribution
for LTE Evolution to 5G’ award at Mobile World Congress (MWC) 2017. This year
is the first year that GSMA has chosen to present the award for 5th generation
mobile networks (5G) and receiving such an honor helps to showcase Huawei’s
contribution to technology evolution.

5G” at MWC 2017
“This
is the first year that GSMA sets an outstanding
contribution award for 5G. Huawei is honored to receive this award” said Mr. Xu Wenwei, Executive Director of the Board, Chief
Strategy Marketing Officer, “The next few years will
see continuous LTE development and 5G innovations. So, we need to do the
preparation in all aspects, including network deployment and industry
collaboration. During the 4.5G to 5G, Huawei will keep focusing on helping our
customers to improve user experience, to step into all cloud era, to enable
innovative services for vertical industries, and finally to build 5G with more
vitality and longer lifecycle.”
68 4.5G networks were commercially deployed worldwide in 2016 and
the number of networks deployed in 2017 is expected to reach 120.
Network evolution should begin with the evolution of network
architecture. In 2016, Huawei launched its CloudRAN Solution, which is a
technology that applies a cloudified architecture to the Radio Access Network
(RAN) and can create a 4.5G and 5G oriented architecture integrating multiple radio
access technologies (RATs), frequency bands, and layers. And it is also a
foundation for E2E network slicing, providing operators with a way to realize
the new business model of deploying diversified new services in one network. As an anchor for joining 4.5G and 5G, CloudRAN
helps maximize network collaboration efficiency and helps operators produce
business success.
Huawei is still insisting on continued investment in technical
innovation in order to meet the challenge of the anticipated accelerated
increase of future MBB network traffic. Huawei and the world's leading
operators engage in large-scale 5G NR field tests and 5G high and low frequency
hybrid field tests. The results show that continuous coverage and super
ultra-large capacity can be satisfied simultaneously, and a single-user peak of
25Gbps can be achieved.
In addition, Huawei and Deutsche Telekom have performed the millimeter-wave
high-frequency test procedure and achieved a peak rate of 70 Gbps – an industry
first. Huawei’s CloudAIR solution can promote the usage of the air interface
resource and realize quick deployment of 5G NR and thus solve the problem about
long-term coexistence with pre-existing RATs.
Meanwhile, by adopting 5G technology on 4G networks well in
advance, Huawei and operators have jointly taken the lead in finishing the
deployment of Massive MIMO in 4G live networks, providing good user experience
and huge promotion of network capability.
In order to construct a new business
model with industry, Huawei and vertical industry partners jointly succeeded in
the incubation of many NB-IoT commercial use cases. Furthermore, Huawei
announced X Labs in 2016, a new research platform that will bring together
operators, technology providers, and vertical industry partners to jointly
explore future use cases for mobile applications, and drive innovation in
business and technology.
Huawei’s “4.5G Evolution to 5G” solution, which provides
high-quality coverage, ultra-large
capacity and flexible network architecture, can help operators to keep ahead on
the road to 5G and help to make 5G a reality.
