Huawei Internet of Things: Participate in standard setting and enhance overseas layout

September 23, 2021

Recently, it was reported that Huawei will set up a new overseas R&D base in Tokyo, Japan in early 2017.   

According to media reports, this will be Huawei's fourth X-Labs overseas, mainly developing technologies and products such as Internet of Things and 5G communications. Huawei hopes to cooperate more deeply with Japanese companies in technology research and development. Huawei has already set up a research institute in Japan, mainly for video imaging, electronic components, new materials and precision manufacturing.

In an interview, Huawei’s vice chairman and rotating CEO Hu Houkun said that Japan has technological advantages in many fields of technology. These technologies can be applied in the fields of Internet of Things and optical fiber communication networks in the future. This is why Huawei has established a research and development base in Japan. one.

He also said that 5G mobile communication technology is critical for the fast-growing Internet of Things. Huawei's Tokyo R&D base will also develop communications technology applications in many areas, such as transportation, energy, finance, and public safety.

The report also pointed out that Huawei's Tokyo R&D base will recruit 20 to 30 researchers in the early stage, and the future may increase staffing according to development.

Huawei in Japan

In fact, Huawei, as one of the world's largest suppliers of telecommunications equipment, has established extensive partnerships with major operators in Japan.

Currently, there are five major mobile communication operators in Japan: NTT Docomo, Softbank, KDDI AU, eMobile and WILLCOM. The top three NTT Docomo, Softbank and KDDI AU are Huawei's main customers, and they purchase a large number of Huawei's network communication equipment. At the beginning of November, Huawei has just successfully launched the world's first new air interface frame structure and system parameter specification 5G C-band large-scale field test in Yokohama and NTT Docomo, which has reached the consensus of the current 3GPP 5G NR project, and reached 11.29Gbps. The average throughput rate.

In addition to network communication equipment, Japan is also the main sales market for smartphones and tablets under Huawei. According to market research firm MM, during the period from April to September, Huawei occupied 17.7% of the Japanese tablet market, second only to American Apple. In addition, Huawei's influence in the Japanese smartphone market is also climbing. For example, Huawei's glory 8 mobile phone, after the United States, was listed in Japan in September, and the price of offline prices is generally higher than domestic.

According to reports, Japan plans to officially commercialize 5G at the 2020 Tokyo Olympics, and has also established the "Internet of Things Acceleration Alliance" to promote the standardization and development of technologies in the Internet of Things and 5G. Obviously, Japan needs to get support from other foreign communication technology companies, including Huawei, to complete this ambitious goal. Huawei can also use this opportunity to extend its IoT tentacles abroad.

Huawei's Internet of Things layout

In fact, in the face of the Internet market with broad market prospects and opportunities, the giants have carried out some deep layout and forward-looking exploration in their own areas, such as Microsoft's Win10 IoT operating system, led by Intel. Huawei's "Internet of Things Solutions Alliance", which is based on chip and hardware supply, is no exception.

In 2015, Huawei released its own IoT strategic plan, namely “1+2+1”: 1 open source (free) IoT operating system Huawei Liteos; eLTE/NB-IoT/5G access + indoor home smart gateway Two kinds of network access methods for access; one OceanConnect IoT platform that integrates functions of device management, data analysis and operation management. It has built the first comprehensive IoT industry solution in China.

In mid-November this year, Huawei again defeated Qualcomm's LDPC and France's main Turbo2.0 in the discussion of the 5G short-code solution at the 3GPP RAN1 87 meeting, and became the 5G control channel eMBB scene with Polar Code. The officially designated coding scheme is also a breakthrough victory for Chinese companies in the development of wireless channel standards.

In addition, on November 25th, at the Global Mobile Broadband Forum, which ended in Tokyo, Japan, Huawei officially launched the objection to the development dilemma of the “fragmentation” of the Internet of Things and the network problems encountered by operators in this dilemma. The Networking Methodology Theory Coverage has become the industry's first unified language to measure the IoT experience, and is the first theoretical system for IoT planning and layout.

Undoubtedly, the Internet of Things and 5G are a big market, and Huawei is doing two things. One is to participate in standard setting and enhance the right to speak. The other is to enhance its share in these two markets through overseas layout.
