2019 Annual Report (^25)
● Our 200G optical system supports a
transmission distance of over 1,100 km, 70%
longer than the industry average. It has been
put into commercial use by more than 150
carriers (e.g., Telecom Italia). Statistics from IHS
Markit showed that Huawei’s 200G ports led
the pack in terms of shipments in 2019, leading
the large-scale commercial deployment of 200G
technology.
By the end of 2019, our 5G transport network
solutions had been deployed by more than 90 carriers
around the world, spearheading the construction of 5G
transport networks.
5G Core Network
Huawei has maintained its global leadership by:
■ Signing the world’s first commercial 5G SA core
network contract in the Middle East.
■ Providing voice services to 2G, 3G, 4G, 5G, and
fixed subscribers with our Single Voice Core
solution to help carriers lay the foundation for 5G
voice services. We have put more than 100 VoLTE
networks into commercial use, which serve over
600 million users.
In May 2019, Huawei proposed 5G Deterministic
Networking, aiming to help carriers deliver a
deterministic networking experience that can
be defined, orchestrated, and managed to their
customers from different industries. Our all-in-one
Multi-access Edge Computing (MEC) and industry’s
only multi-dimensional, intelligent dynamic network
slicing solutions help carriers facilitate the digital
transformation of numerous industries and achieve
sustainable development.
Huawei partnered with Haier and China Mobile
to launch the world’s first AI+5G interconnected
factory. Working with partners including Mstar
Technologies, we used differentiated and deterministic
networking service capabilities to build an intelligent
manufacturing system for multiple scenarios,
such as 5G+Machine Vision, 5G+AR Man-Machine
Collaboration, and 5G+Smart Devices. This factory
enables flexible and efficient mass customization
production.
Global Services
Huawei leverages AI-powered digital platforms to
help carriers go digital faster, achieve agile network
construction, intelligent O&M, and smart operations,
and succeed in the 5G era.
■ Network planning and construction: Huawei
works with carriers to implement new digital
network construction models using AI and big
data technology. By working closely with carriers,
we use digital technology to efficiently construct
networks throughout the process from gaining
insights to planning and construction, and expand
the networks during the construction process to
maximize carriers’ investment efficiency.
■ O&M: Our intelligent operations services
solution, AUTINTM, continues to accumulate O&M
knowledge assets and optimize AI training models
on the unified open Operation Web Services
(OWS) platform in order to evolve towards new
O&M models characterized by man-machine
collaboration. China Unicom jointly innovates with
Huawei in 5G O&M, enabling automated topology
generation for fault visualization across domains,
intelligent fault detection, and cross-network and
cross-domain intelligent fault diagnosis, as well as
accelerating staff upskilling.
■ Smart operations: Huawei worked with the
Video Experience Alliance (VEA) – China’s industry
organization for video experience standards –
and industry partners to release the world’s first
Technical White Paper on Virtual Reality (VR)
Experience Standards. We have signed commercial
contracts to build 5G Service Operations Centers
(SOCs) with more than 10 carriers. Our 5G
monetization solution helps build a closed-loop
business system for 5G and activate new multi-
dimensional business models.
In 2019, 35 carriers around the world that had
launched commercial 5G services implemented our
B.E.S.T. Network solution for 5G.
