China Unicom Beijing taps Huawei for rural 5G boost
China Unicom Beijing labored with Huawei to deploy greater than 1,000 next-generation energetic antenna models (AAUs) at rural 5G websites, a part of the operator’s technique to spice up protection and efficiency outdoors city areas.
Huawei claimed the community elevated protection 40 per cent and generated 38 per cent extra visitors per web site. It additionally elevated information charges by 10 per cent and lowered power consumption by 5 per cent in contrast with the earlier model
The MetaAAUs are Huawei’s third-generation 5G AAU and make use of its “extreme-large antenna array to double the dimensions of arrays in contrast with the previous-generation AAU”, it said.
Protection is boosted “as a result of channel beams are narrower and power is extra centered” it added.
China Unicom Beijing defined it used the models to realize 2022 5G development targets for small cities and rural areas.
Fan Liqun, head of China Unicom Beijing’s 5G co-construction and sharing work crew, said MetaAAUs are a significant a part of its digital village technique. “We’ve explored varied eventualities based mostly on excessive bandwidth and iteratively adopted modern Large MIMO applied sciences to make sure the absolute best 5G and digital expertise for our prospects.”
In November 2021, Huawei launched MetaAAUs that includes 384 antenna components, twice as many as a conventional AAU.
