Huawei Strives to Build industry Intelligent Twins with Intelligent Connectivity - Huawei Enterprise

[Shanghai, China, September 24, 2020] At HUAWEI CONNECT 2020, Huawei announced its all-scenario intelligent connectivity solutions for technology, network, and industry scenarios. These solutions will help Huawei deliver intelligent connectivity that is characterized by ubiquitous gigabit, deterministic experience, and hyper-automation in order to build industry Intelligent Twins. Huawei also launched autonomous driving network (ADN) solutions for enterprises, propelling enterprise networks into the ADN era and accelerating the intelligent upgrades of industries.

David Wang, Huawei Executive Director and Chairman of the Investment Review Board, delivered a keynote speech titled "Building industry Intelligent Twins with intelligent connectivity." According to Mr. Wang, connectivity is productivity. It is not mere computing power, but strong connectivity that makes Intelligent Twins smarter.

Huawei believes that ubiquitous gigabit, deterministic experience, and hyper-automation are the three major characteristics of intelligent connectivity.

Intelligent Twins raise five new requirements for connectivity

The four key components of Intelligent Twins are intelligent interactions, intelligent connectivity, intelligent applications, and the intelligent hub. Among these, intelligent connectivity is like the body of Intelligent Twins. What new requirements do Intelligent Twins place on intelligent connectivity?

There are three types of connectivity scenarios for Intelligent Twins. One is connectivity within the intelligent hub, such as the connection of AI cluster servers and cloud data centers. The second is connectivity between the intelligent hub and intelligent interaction devices; connecting the "brain" and the "limbs", so to speak. The last type is connectivity between intelligent interaction devices, such as the connection of AI cameras, 4K drones, and robotic arms.

Overall, Intelligent Twins have five major requirements for connectivity: High reliability, zero packet loss, differentiated services, real-time high bandwidth, and smart O&M.

To meet the connectivity needs of Intelligent Twins, Huawei defined the three major characteristics of intelligent connectivity:

The first is ubiquitous gigabit.Bandwidth is the basis of connectivity. The wide application of AI cameras, drones, industrial cameras, and industrial VR/AR services has made ubiquitous gigabit connectivity essential.

The second is deterministic experience.Connectivity for Intelligent Twins mainly targets things and diverse production scenarios. For example, during peak times in 2019, there was one aircraft departing or arriving at Shenzhen Airport every less than one minute, making it essential to guarantee real-time networking. In another example, electric power companies must assure "six nines", or even higher reliability, and less than two minutes of power outage per household per year. Therefore, deterministic connectivity is vital to the security and reliability of enterprise services.

The third is hyper-automation.As industries become intelligent, the service types as well as scale and complexity of networks will multiply, making network O&M more difficult. The application of big data and AI will transform traditional and semi-automated O&M into hyper-automated O&M, and leave all these complexities to be handled by digital intelligence.

Huawei's all-scenario intelligent connectivity solutions

In terms of technology, Huawei's all-scenario intelligent connectivity solutions will provide ubiquitous gigabit and low latency connectivity for intelligent interaction devices, and apply AI to achieve deterministic network experience and hyper-automated O&M. In terms of networks, these solutions will provide Intelligent Twins with campus, data center, WAN, and security networks. As for industries, intelligent connectivity will be combined with intelligent interactions, the intelligent hub, and industry know-how to build scenario-specific, intelligent solutions for industries.

? 5G intelligent connectivity: Gigabit uplink speed, 20ms latency, and submeter-level location

To support the intelligent upgrade of industries, Huawei will continue enhancing its 5G intelligent connectivity capabilities in terms of uplink bandwidth, latency, and location accuracy. For example, in the smart manufacturing domain, Huawei used its Super Uplink technology to provide gigabit uplink speeds for HD video uploads. For scenarios that require remote operation and control, such as ports, Huawei
