Over 300 5G commercial networks have already been launched worldwide, serving more than 1.6 billion users. This represents a massive deployment that has reached 7 times as many 5G users than was achieved over the same period with 4G. However, Huawei is already focusing on commercializing the next wave of the technology, 5.5G, working with world-leading operators and industry partners to meet the higher requirements and provide the enhanced benefits of 5.5G.
Progression from Vision to Reality
- Over the last 3 years, 5.5G has progressed from vision to reality, promising to deliver greater bandwidth, lower latency, and enhanced IoT capabilities.
- Huawei has already helped operators start 5.5G commercial verification and testing in more than 20 cities around the world.
Commercial Uses of 5.5G
- 2024 will see the first commercial uses of 5.5G, not only in the Middle East, where the Gulf Cooperation Council has completed 5.5G 10 gigabit per second rate verification, but also across Europe, Asia-Pacific, and Latin America.
Innovative Technology
- Huawei’s extremely large antenna arrays with native dual-band converged antenna elements simplify side construction and provide continuous 5G availability.
- The company’s rapid innovation and development have enabled 5.5G to become a reality in 2024.
Key to 10Gbps 5.5G
- Native ultra-high bandwidth MMWave is key to 10Gbps 5.5G.
- Huawei provides the industry’s largest MMWave AAUs with more than 2,000 antenna elements, 4 times the beam density of any competitor.
Huawei’s Green Antenna Series
- Huawei’s Green Antenna Series was awarded the prestigious GSMA Glomo Award for Best Mobile Network Infrastructure at the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona, showcasing the company’s innovation and green credentials.
