Huaweis 5G Deterministic Networking to Enable Industry Digitalization
Huawei held a press conference online to exhibit its brand new products and solutions under the theme of "5G, Bring New Value". At the conference, Huawei announced its brand new progress on the deterministic networking oriented 5G core network solution. Pivoting on the key concept of "Cloud Native, One Core, Real-time Operation, and Edge Computing", the solution offers differentiated services and deterministic experience, ushering in a new generation of 5G business. The accelerated business launch of 5G globally will unleash the potential of industry digitization to create new opportunities for operators to grow.
"5G technology will enrich people's lives and transform industrial processes, and the core network will play an increasingly integral role in this process, stated Leo Ma, VP of Huawei Cloud Core Network Marketing. Huawei is committed to work with partners to speed up 5G business deployment and improvement of industry applications."
Digital transformation requires differentiated, dedicated, and self-service (DIY) networks, that is, deterministic network capabilities. 5G deterministic networking leverages 5G network resources to create manageable, verifiable, and deterministic virtual private mobile networks, providing clients a predictable and differentiated service experience. The core network is the key to attaining 5G deterministic networking.
Huawei's deterministic networking oriented 5G core network solution features the next-generation hyper-converged cloud platform "E9000H+TCC" and supports microservice-level full convergence. Its smart and simplified management device combines automated workflows and AI engine to deliver multi-dimensional dynamic network slicing. It adopts key technologies such as MEC and 5G LAN to build connectivity + computing platform and mobile private networks. Aimed at constructing an intelligent and simplified network, better client experience, defending network investment, and addressing personalized enterprise requirements, the solution is predicted to be an essential force for industry-wide digital transformation.
Huawei was the first in the enterprise to propose 5G deterministic networking in May 2019. The company joined hands with enterprise partners to set up a 5G deterministic network industry alliance at the Shanghai MWC in June, 2019. The alliance today has more than 100 member organizations and has carried out cross-industry collaboration based on 5G deterministic networking in the fields of multimedia, manufacturing, energy, healthcare, and connected vehicles. A developing range of projects showcasing the success of the rising 5G ecosystem include: Smart Port (in Shanghai), Smart Grid (partnering with Chinas State Grid and China Southern Power Grid), Smart Factory (partnering with Qingdao Haier), an AR-based cultural tourist appeal "Wonderland of Mountains and Rivers " (for Beijing World Expo), and AR advertising (for Shenzhen Airport).
Huawei and industry partners, together with the China Academy of Information and Communications Technology (CAICT), China Mobile, China Telecom, and China Unicom, together launched a 5G Deterministic Network Industry White Paper in February, 2020. This is the first time 5G Deterministic Networking has been introduced comprehensively, along with its definition, concepts, key technologies, and successful use cases. This launch opens a new chapter for 5G development, promotes improvement of further network applications, and places 5G at the center of enterprise digitalization.
Huawei has been committed to developing the core network section for years and has made considerable contributions to the industrys development. The service-based architecture (SBA) together proposed by Huawei and China Mobile has turn out to be the unified 5G network architecture. Huawei earned an overall leadership position, with Leader rankings across all the evaluated criteria in the GlobalData's 5G Core competitiveness ranking report. Huawei additionally received the "Best 5G Core Network Technology Award" at the 5G World Summit in 2019, and was the first to be granted the 5G Core Network Telecommunication Equipment Network Access License in China. Huawei will proceed to drive development to better serve clients and promote the speedy improvement of 5G.
