EC News DeskHuawei held a press conference online to showcase its latest products and solutions under the theme of 5G Bring New Value. At the conference, Huawei revealed its latest 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 provides differentiated services and deterministic experience, ushering in a new era of 5G business. The accelerated commercial launch of 5G worldwide will unleash the potential of industry digitisation to create new opportunities for operators to grow.
Digital transformation requires differentiated, dedicated, and self-service networks, that is, deterministic network capabilities. 5G deterministic networking leverages 5G network resources to build manageable, verifiable, and deterministic virtual private mobile networks, offering customers a predictable and differentiated service experience. The core network is the key to achieving 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 intelligent and simplified management system 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 a connectivity+computing platform and mobile private networks. Aimed at building an intelligent and simplified network, enhanced customer experience, protecting network investment, and addressing customised industry requirements, the solution is expected to be an important force for industry-wide digital transformation.
Huawei was the first in the industry to propose 5G deterministic networking in May 2019. The company joined hands with industry partners to establish a 5G deterministic network industry alliance at the Shanghai MWC in June, 2019. The alliance today has more than 100 member organisations and has carried out cross-industry collaboration based on 5G deterministic networking in the fields of multimedia, manufacturing, energy, healthcare, and connected vehicles.
Huawei and industry partners, including the China Academy of Information and Communications Technology, China Mobile, China Telecom, and China Unicom, jointly released a 5G Deterministic Network Industry White Paper in February, 2020. This is the first time 5G Deterministic Networking has been introduced comprehensively, including its definition, concepts, key technologies, and successful use cases. This release opens a new chapter for 5G development, promotes development of further network applications, and puts 5G at the centre of industry digitalisation.
Huawei has been committed to developing the core network section for years and has made significant contributions to the industry’s development. The service-based architecture jointly proposed by Huawei and China Mobile has become 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 also won 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 continue to drive progress to better serve customers and promote the rapid development of 5G.
“5G technology will enrich people’s lives and transform industrial processes, and the core network will play an increasingly crucial role in this process,” said Leo Ma, VP of Huawei Cloud Core Network Marketing. “Huawei is committed to work with partners to accelerate 5G commercial deployment and development of industry applications.”
