How importance of Huawei to the 5G industry?
The new infrastructure construction with 5G as the starting point (referred to as "new
infrastructure") is in full swing and has become an important engine for promoting the
high-quality development of my country's social economy.
Huawei's 5G and 5G technologies have become a controversial topic. In a report recently
released by ABI Research, Huawei summarized the importance of Huawei to the 5G industry.
ABI believes that most of the criticism of Huawei is not from customers, partners or even
competitors to a certain extent, but from government agencies, national security organizations,
and regulatory agencies. The line between the arguments for and against is very blurry, and many
key issues, including geopolitical trade wars, existing supplier relationships, and 5G market
conditions are intertwined. Moreover, false information also distorts this discussion, so it is
difficult to draw a clear conclusion on this topic.
Huawei has always been a technological giant of 4G and 5G, an outstanding contributor at the
3GPP conference, and is one of the largest patent holders of 4G and 5G. ABI cited examples of
Huawei's multiple demonstrations of its expertise, professionalism, and collaboration methods:
Huawei developed the SingleRAN concept in an innovation laboratory jointly conducted with
Vodafone in 2007. This technology decomposes a cellular base station into a baseband unit (BBU)
at the bottom of the tower and a radio remote unit (RRU) adjacent to the antenna. Previously,
the baseband and radio units were at the bottom of the tower, and radio frequency (RF) cables
were used to connect them to the antenna. This leads to very high wiring costs and signal losses,
as well as inefficient power supplies. On the other hand, SingleRAN provides the function of
pooling baseband resources of multiple generations (including 2G, 3G, and 4G), and has now
become the industry standard provided by all suppliers.
Huawei pioneered the CloudAIR concept in November 2017, which allows spectrum sharing
between 4G and 5G systems. This is very similar to the dynamic spectrum sharing (DSS) concept,
which is now commercialized in 5G deployments. Huawei is not the only company developing
this service. It can be said that many 3GPP participants have contributed to the commercial
development of DSS. However, Huawei is one of the first companies to determine the demand for
spectrum sharing between cellular generations.
Huawei also released the 64T64R large-scale multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) active
antenna unit (AAU), which can support 400 MHz bandwidth in the 3.5 GHz frequency band, thus
breaking through the limit design of RF components, power amplifiers, and systems. The AAU is
intended to support mobile operators who have a non-contiguous 5G spectrum in this band.
Huawei is also the only supplier that developed the narrowband Internet of Things (NB-IoT)
network functions and chipset/equipment in the early stage of commercialization, thereby
bringing cellular IoT functions to multiple enterprise areas.
ABI believes that these innovations are just a few examples of Huawei's new products and
solutions. According to the supplier report, Huawei has more plans in the field of technology and
implementation. This shows that Huawei is an important company developing 5G technology and
network deployment (including consumer-based outdoor networks and enterprise applications).

Prohibiting Huawei from entering the global market will not only restrict operators' choices in
terms of suppliers, and may force them to rely on giant monopolies, but also affect technological
innovation in the entire industry value chain.
