Nokia and China's 5G road has just begun
Long sights and looks: Nokia and China's 5G road has just begun
China Mobile's 5G Phase II wireless main network equipment collection, which has attracted much industry attention, has come to an end.
However, various disputes about this gathering have been intensified one after another. Due to the poor performance in this gathering, Nokia Bell has become the focus of market attention. There was even a rumor that Nokia would reassess the Chinese market and related strategies. .
For various doubts, Nokia's attitude is clear. Whether it ’s the previously issued statement “Do not forget the original intention, commit to China”, or the open letter “To all friends who care about China ’s 5G construction and Nokia Bell” released this Monday, there is a very clear and firm statement. Named a communications "veteran" who has served in the Chinese communications market for nearly 40 years, Nokia's commitment and mission: to fully cooperate with and support operators' 5G deployment, jointly promote the digital application of the industry market, and ensure 5G business success; fully mobilize Utilize and utilize global resources to promote the standardization, industrialization, and globalization of various communication technologies advocated by China.

There is no doubt that the failure of this gathering may bring some negative impacts and short-term challenges to Nokia Bell in the next production and operation. However, in the author's opinion, it is unscientific, unreasonable, or even unfair to use the results of a single centralized procurement to arbitrarily determine the future trend of an enterprise. Because 5G is a protracted battle, a conference battle, and even a tough battle. As long as you can ponder your pains and find your weak points, you will still be able to usher in the "star sea" of 5G. It's good to look at the scenery, Nokia is still one of the operators' very reliable partners in the 5G field!
5G is a protracted battle
What is 5G, what can 5G do, and how long can 5G exist?
This is a topic often discussed in the industry. In my opinion, as a full-service basic network, as a key infrastructure of the future information society, as a connector, accelerator, and multiplier for the digital transformation of thousands of industries, 5G is only a "sharp point"
From the perspective of network construction, according to the prediction of China Information and Communications Technology Institute, the investment in 5G by the three major operators will be as high as 1.2 trillion yuan, and the demand for base stations (including small base stations) will be tens of millions. So far, only 600,000 base stations have been built this year, which means that the bigger cake is still behind. The market share and industrial structure of equipment manufacturers are far from being "solidified", and there are still great variables.
Such examples have been staged in the era of CDMA and TD-SCDMA. In the centralized procurement of China Telecom and China Mobile, some manufacturers seized the opportunity and changed the original market pattern in a short period of time. For Nokia, it is a must for 5G. With the adjustment of technical road signs and product delivery, in the next centralized procurement, it is still worthy of our expectations.
From the perspective of the evolution of the standard, due to the impact of the new crown epidemic, the freeze time of the R16 / R17 version has been delayed; but it also shows that the 5G standard is continuously evolving and new functional features are constantly superimposed, which is exactly the advantage of Nokia. . As an industry leader, Nokia has played a very important role in all aspects of 5G development, whether it is 5G technology research and development, cooperation with 3GPP to establish 5G standards, or helping to launch 5G commercial networks. Last year alone, Nokia ’s R & D investment reached 4.4 billion euros, and the already declared 5G SEP has reached more than 3,400 patent families.
5G is a big battle
Different from previous generations of mobile communication technologies, 5G is comprehensive in the transformation of the network.In the wireless field, 5G's demand for spectrum resources is more urgent, not only in Sub-6GHz, but also for the deployment of millimeter wave requirements; in addition, 5G has a core network, bearer network, IoT, data analysis, network security, etc. The end-to-end overall solution also puts forward new requirements.
This is where Nokia's advantage lies. In terms of end-to-end, Nokia covers all 5G functions such as wireless, core network, cloud, transmission network and management, automation and security, which can help operators and enterprise customers to upgrade to wireless access, core network and transmission network simply and efficiently. , And then quickly achieve 5G evolution. According to statistics, about 60% of Nokia ’s 5G customers have chosen more than an end-to-end solution for the new air interface.
In order to meet the needs of multiple use cases such as high capacity and wide coverage, operators need to increase their network density. For operators, the key is to deploy appropriate end-to-end small stations and millimeter wave technology to ensure reliable delivery. 5G performance. In September 2019, in the millimeter wave test organized by the IMT-2020 (5G) promotion group, Nokia Bell was the first millimeter wave functional test and field test project to complete the 5G enhanced technology research and development test.
In the field of transmission networks, Nokia achieved a single carrier rate of up to 1.52 Tbps on 80 km of standard single-mode fiber, setting a new world record, four times the highest single carrier rate of nearly 400 Gbps on the current market. These technological innovations further demonstrate Nokia's end-to-end development capabilities in the 5G era to meet the growing demand for data, capacity, and latency in industrial Internet of Things and consumer applications.
In the field of access networks, Nokia has launched a new Lightspan access node designed for 5G, a new Beacon 6 home gateway that supports offloading of 5G mobile data traffic, and a number of innovative technologies from Nokia Bell Labs, which can reduce latency to provide Seamless 5G experience, combined with the advantages of FTTH and 5G, Nokia can help operators accelerate the deployment of 5G and Gigabit networks in the most cost-effective way.
5G is a tough battle
As Yang Jie, chairman of China Mobile, said, "The unknown of 5G is far greater than the known." The door of 5G has just opened, and there are infinite possibilities in the future!
The GSMA forecast shows that the value of the entire 2B terminal in 2026 should be 1.3 trillion US dollars, of which 620 billion US dollars is an opportunity for operators to obtain, but how to obtain it is very challenging. In terms of "pioneering" applications in the 5G industry, Nokia has already taken the lead.
Marcus Weldon, Nokia ’s Chief Technology Officer and President of Nokia Bell Labs, pointed out, “5G was originally intended to deliver extremely high capacity to consumers, but with the development of new technologies and network architectures, 5G will also bring new The application of 5G end-to-end network will become the key factor driving the fourth industrial revolution, and Nokia Bell Labs will once again become the leader of the revolutionary wave. "
At the same time, as the first global "big unification" standard in the history of mobile communications development, the continued development of 5G requires coordinated innovation in the global industry chain. In particular, 5G practical experience from China, in the turbulent international situation, needs a partner who can be globally deployed, Nokia is undoubtedly one of the best candidates. Whether it is the 2.6GHz band operated by China Mobile or the 3.5GHz 200MHz large bandwidth promoted by China Unicom, for example, it has "Chinese characteristics" at this stage, and it is a "roadmark" that leads the development of global industries in the long run. "Demand, no matter from the perspective of the standard global landing, or to expand the scale of the industry, and then reduce the cost of the industry chain, Nokia is a good partner.
Not only that, the combination of 5G and vertical industries will spawn many more innovative, "small giant" companies that are more representative of the vitality of China's digital economy industry. The internationalization of these companies will definitely produce greater business and Social value, and Nokia is undoubtedly a good "leader".
At present, Nokia has actively cooperated with operators and leading companies in nearly 1,000 industries such as Internet, transportation, energy, manufacturing, finance, and smart cities to jointly explore the road of digital construction and development in China.
Summary: It is important to look at the landscape and the long-term failure. The single-collection failure will not affect Nokia ’s industrial position, nor will it affect Nokia ’s commitment and confidence in China Mobile, Chinese operators, and the entire China 5G industry ecosystem. 5G is a protracted battle, a battle of battles, and a tough battle. Nokia is still an indispensable force in China's 5G industry ecosystem.
