vivo released 6G white paper: proposed three major application scenarios and eight enable enables technology

21st Century Business Herald reporter Luo Yiqi Guangzhou report

During the commercial and promotion of the scene of 5G, the communication industry chain manufacturer also began to analyze and judge the next generation of communication technology 6G.

Recently, vivo released the white paper of "6G Services, Power and Movement Technology" to share the service direction of 6G and how to advance.

It shows that 5G technology supports EMBB (enhanced mobile broadband), URLLC (ultra -high reliability and ultra -low latency communication), and MMTC (large -scale machine communication), which will consume mobile communication from human -oriented information consumption The market, expand to the Internet of Things and industry.

Looking forward to 6G, as the basic network and information base that integrates the world in the future, it will provide three types of services: super communication, integration computing, and basic information.

Including communication, information, computing systems and technologies including 6G, as well as many technologies such as new materials, new terminals, smart human -computer interaction, integrated circuits, etc., we will jointly build a free connection physical figures that integrate the world, support 2030+ digital life, and support 2030+ digital life, and Digital governance and digital production.

Qin Fei, Dean of the Vivo Communication Research Institute, said that 6G technology is currently in the stage of consensus consensus and making big cakes. The consensus reached by the current industry is that 6G technology is commercially used in 2030, and the first 6G terminal will appear during commercial use. As for its form, it is still difficult to conclude that it should be a terminal type that cannot be served by 5G, and it will emerge when there is market demand.

Explore 6G

As the communication stage that followed and ran before, since entering the 5G era, after the Chinese communications manufacturers began to lead, they have also participated in the pre -research of the 6G era.

In an interview, Qin Fei reviewed that at the beginning of the establishment of 3GPP standards, mobile cellular communication began to appear. The earliest and most important contributors were the mobile terminal giant Motorola. There are strong sounds in standardized organizations.

It is only in the process of subsequent development, based on various reasons, some companies are fused, and some of them have become simple online companies. Domestic terminal manufacturers have gradually grown up and joined the standardized organization.

"Honeycomb communication standards are end -to -end systems composed of network+terminal+applications. Empty port technology is the process and technology of back -and -forth communication between mobile phones and base stations, so it is difficult for terminal companies to understand and contribute to the system." Qin Fei Introduction, this is also the background of Vivo's active exploration of frontier technology research.

The previous white paper shows that the three basic services of 6G super communication, basic information, and integration computing will be derived from various service cases, such as immersive XR, holographic presentation, autonomous driving, wireless perception, Yuan universe, etc. One or more basic services.

Vivo Communication Research Institute divides 6G capabilities into two types: performance and efficiency. It is seen through the definition description and parameter description of the 6G service capabilities indicators. Compared with 5G, the diversity of 6G services and the scalability of 6G systems are very prominent.

Taking super communication as an example, the three sub -scenarios of EMBB 2.0, URLLC 2.0, and MMTC 2.0 correspond to the further performance improvement and service upgrade of the three major application scenarios of 5G, respectively. In addition, 6G will provide more flexible scenarios within the boundaries of super communication, basic information and integration computing services.

At the same time, 6G's performance improvement and service expansion put forward new demand for enable technology. From the perspective of the overall function framework, in addition to the need to enhance the communication function, the function layer also needs to introduce new network functions such as perception function, data function, and calculation functions; in the resource set, in addition to the increase in various types of resources, it also needs to support the dynamic resources of resources. Management and scheduling to meet the needs of system flexibility.

Potential

Although it is still in the exploration stage, Qin Fei introduced that vivo is exploring some potential technical directions.

"We believe that the vision of the free connection of physical and digital free connections in the future not only transmits information, but also provides computing power or AI services. At the same time, it must be transmitted through the network, plus perception and other functions during operation. The digital twin world that is most needed in the industry, the clearest basic information network. "He introduced.

Therefore, in Vivo's view, such basic information is not only available in consumer fields, but also uses transportation, municipalities and other industries, and requires participants to penetrate, rather than separate processing data, otherwise the data will be reduced and processing efficiency.

"The 6G system may generate some information by itself, plus a large amount of sensor and GIS (geographical information system) information of perception, positioning, and layout. All industries and consumers provide services, and information and service efficiency will be improved. "He continued.

On the basis of the three major services, vivo forms a research on the 6G framework, and on the framework, 6G's enable technology, including mobile calculation network integration, communication perception integration, intelligent endogenous system, data surface, extremely low power consumption consumption consumption Eight research on communication, MIMO evolution, RIS technology, and new waveforms. The final results will be published on the one hand to form an industry consensus, and on the other hand, they will also apply for some corresponding patents.

With the advent of the next era of mobile computing, the form of mobile phones will no longer become a consensus on the industry. This is also the reason why industrial is actively exploring products and ecology such as XR and other products. In response to the appearance of the 6G era terminal, Qin Fei said that it must belong to the terminal. It may be a product with touch and interaction function, perhaps mobile phones, or maybe XR equipment, service robots, unmanned cars, etc. In terms of ultra -low power consumption, it may also include cameras.

According to the industrial research and judgment, in the 5G era, the use of XR devices and may still face bottlenecks such as insufficient communication capacity and further improvement of the technology maturity of the equipment. It is expected that the XR device will reach about 2030. Essence

"The terminal of the future should be diverse. There are types of changing a button battery in 10 years, and there are also smart cars. They are capable and weak." He added that this means The ability of the computing power service will be very important. One of the directions is the integration of the mobile network. It deploys more computing nodes in the mobile network, similar to the edge computing server.

At present, the research and development of 6G key technologies in the industry is still in the early stages. The suitable scenarios and related technical indicators require the communication industry to continue to actively invest in verification. It can be seen that the manufacturers have begun to run actively.
