    Midea, China Mobile, and Huawei: ‘5G Industry Challenge Award’

    What it is

    • The world’s first 5G fully connected factory in the home appliance sector
    • The largest application of 5G in the industry, with the largest number of 5G devices

    What it does

    • Uses advanced solutions from China Mobile and Huawei to deliver 5G connections across 15 scenarios, and connects all production links with 5G devices
    • Uses laser point cloud 3D modeling to support high-precision simulation, allowing indoor 5G private network planning to reach a precision above 90%
    • Improves quality inspection efficiency with AI by 10% by using multi-band networking combined with Distributed Massive MIMO to deliver a deterministic uplink capacity of 1 Gbit/s per 1,000 sq. meters
    • Improves uplink capacity by 10% using the world’s first FAB pRRU, which features internal beam adjusting capability
    • Replaces complex cabling between machines with 5G, improving workplace safety
    • Boosts productivity with machines able to operate automatically
    • Slashes the time to produce one washing machine to 15 seconds
    • Increases the number of products directly delivered to customers by 100%
    • Cuts warehouse inventory by 50%
    • Reduces labor costs by 30%

    Who’s deploying it

    • Midea Group in its laundry appliance factory in Jingzhou, China
    Midea, China Mobile, and Huawei win the GSMA GLOMO for ‘5G Industry Challenge Award’

    Huawei RuralLink: ‘Best Mobile Innovation for Emerging Markets’

    What it is

    • A solution for addressing communication challenges in connecting rural communities (40% of the world’s population is not connected to the Internet.)

    What it does

    • Uses microwave fronthaul technology in an industry first
    • Enables rural sites to share the baseband resources of existing base stations so that independent baseband units (BBU) are not required
    • Reduces site power consumption: BBUs are not required and only one RRU and one Channel Expand Antenna are needed to achieve three-sector coverage
    • Supplies the entire site with power using just 4 PV modules
    • Supports 2G, 3G, and 4G, with 5G evolution possible
