Qualcomm achieved the world's first end-to-end 5G new air interface system interoperability

As early as February of this year, Qualcomm will work with ZTE and China Mobile to conduct interoperability testing and OTA field trials based on the 5G NR (5G NR) specification and try to push the wireless ecosystem to implement the large-scale 5G new air interface technology Rapid validation and commercialization enable 5G new air interface infrastructure and terminals that comply with 3GPP Release 15 standards to enable timely deployment of commercial networks.

After several months of hard work, Qualcomm, ZTE, and China Mobile officially announced the successful implementation of the world's first 5G NRB (5G NR) system interworking (IoDT) based on the 3GPP R15 standard by November 17. The interworking The demonstration was carried out in China Mobile 5G Joint Innovation Center Laboratory, using 5G new air interface pre-commercial base station of ZTE and 5G new air interface terminal prototype of Qualcomm.

The end-to-end 5G new air interface system operates in the 3.5GHz frequency band and supports 100MHz high bandwidth. The protocol implements the new air interface Layer 1 architecture fully compliant with the 3GPP R15 standard, including scalable OFDM parameter configuration, advanced new channel coding and modulation schemes, And self-contained frame structure with low delay, it can efficiently realize G bit-rate transmission rate per second for single user, and significantly reduce the air interface delay compared with 4G.

The successful interworking of end-to-end 5G air interface system is an important industry milestone of 5G air interface technology towards large-scale pre-commercialization and promotes the rapid development of 5G network and terminal industry in line with 3GPP standards.

Christiano Amon, Qualcomm executive vice president and chief executive of QCT, said: "The world's first 5G new air interface end-to-end system interoperability data connection truly reflects our 5G leadership and helps to ensure standards-compliant 5G commercial networks Timely deployment of Qualcomm has been committed to supporting the long-term success of China's wireless industry, we are also very pleased to be working with ZTE and China Mobile to work together to accelerate China's 5G process.

Xu Hui-jun, CTO and Executive Vice President of ZTE, said: "ZTE is committed to becoming the first supplier of 5G commercial equipment and solutions. In the process of 5G technical verification and product development, we have been actively cooperating with a large number of industry partners The key technology verification, program verification and network verification work.The ZTE and China Mobile, Qualcomm jointly completed the world's first 5G new air interface interoperability data connection, which reflects our efforts in promoting the 5G industrialization and stage Achievements.

Li Zhengmao, vice president of China Mobile Communications Corporation, said: "China Mobile is committed to working with industry partners to promote the global standardization of 5G. Based on 3GPP standard version 5G new air interface end-to-end interoperability testing is 5G from the standard to the product and pre-commercial An important milestone.China Mobile is willing to work with Qualcomm, ZTE and other industry partners to promote 5G products continue to mature, the industry toward success.

Qualcomm made a lot of predictable deployments in the 5G area Qualcomm announced on October 17 this year a successful 5G data connection based on the Snapdragon X50 5G modem chipset and the first 5G smartphone reference design for the new generation of cellular connectivity, Let the 5G era closer and closer to us.And as an important part of the 5G 5G new air interface technology to meet the growing demand for data connectivity is crucial in the future to support high-definition video streaming, immersive virtual / augmented reality and other emerging mobile Broadband experience, and new services that combine high reliability and low latency for autonomous vehicles, unmanned aerial vehicles and industrial control.

The 5G era of efficient, stable, low latency communication technology allows our mobile Internet life to further develop into the Internet of Things era. 5G will bring diversified services: enhanced mobile broadband, massive Internet of Things and business-critical service.

For example, the new 5G air interface technology enhances the data connection performance and enables us to obtain higher quality and richer streaming media experiences, including the rapidly developing VR / AR content, which not only can be online after the communication bandwidth and speed increase Watch 360 ° immersive VR video content, even participate in 'VR live', bring you to sports events, concert live anytime, anywhere, VIP experience in the unusual seat of the audio-visual experience.

In addition, 5G support for massive Internet of things is also conducive to promoting the development of smart cities, smart home, so that our life is truly intelligent.In the field of business-critical services, now pay close attention to the autonomous driving cars, industrial automation Telemedicine, etc. Auto-driving cars are 'extremely demanding' for connectivity and require communication technologies to power behind, such as the new 5G air interface technology with high reliability and low latency.

Previously Qualcomm 5G modem chipset, 5G data connection, 5G smart phone reference design results, let us see from the mobile network or mobile smart terminal 5G door.And this Qualcomm, ZTE and China Mobile announced the success Achieving the world's first end-to-end 5G new air interface system based on the 3GPP R15 standard will further accelerate the 5G commercialization process, which is a milestone for the large-scale verification and commercialization of the 5G air interface technology.
