MWC 2019: Huawei Launches 5G Simplified Solution
Huawei

Huawei released the 5G Simplified Solution at MWC19. The company said it's dedicated to taking complexity and creating simplicity. 5G Simplified Solution can help operators build network with high performance and user experience, simplified and fast deployment and low operating cost.

5G has a faster deployment pace than other RATs in terms of commercial use. It is the first time during the past nearly 40 years that, 5G networks and terminals for large-scale commercial use are simultaneously mature. It took 10 years for 3G worldwide users to reach 500 million users, 5 years for 4G, and will be 3 years for 5G.

5G will develop in larger-scale, and wider-ranging. It is estimated that, in 2019, over 50 countries will allocate 5G spectrum resources, over 60 operators will deploy 5G on a large scale, and over 40 types of commercial 5G terminals will be available. 5G will develop several times or even dozens of times faster than existing RATs, with a larger deployment scale and more users to experience 5G. The first wave of 5G commercialization will cover a third of the global population, greatly exceeding the scale of 3G or 4G.

Huawei has obtained more than 30 commercial contracts and delivered over 40,000 sites. It is an urgent need of operators to reduce the cost per bit of the network while providing the eMBB ultimate experience to the consumer. It has become an industry consensus that large-scale deployment of Massive MIMO. Currently 95% of commercial shipments are Massive-MIMO.

The 5G Simplified solution is oriented to diversified deployment scenarios such as traditional macro, antenna limited, street hotspots, and indoor. It contains serialized 5G Massive MIMO, Book RRU, LampSite, etc. The most innovative of these is the blade AAU. It supports all RATs and frequency bands, and integrates active and passive antennas.

Blade AAU greatly simplified the antenna, efficient use of site resources and help operators reduce high site operating costs. It meets the installation requirements of the existing sites with its height of 2 meters. In conjunction with the blade AAU, Huawei also launches an outdoor blade BBU, which is combined with blade power to form a 5G super blade site.
