From October 11th to 13th, 2024, the 2024 China Mobile Partner Conference, themed "Intelligent Revitalization, Jointly Creating the AI+ Era", was grandly held in Guangzhou. Xu Ziyang, President of ZTE, was invited to attend the main forum of the conference and delivered a keynote speech titled "5G-A New Era, AI+ Powers the Future", sharing ZTE's digital practices and innovative achievements in the wave of artificial intelligence.

Xu Ziyang pointed out that we are in an accelerated and uncertain era, facing many challenges such as market fragmentation, cross-border competition, and sustainable development. From the perspective of the ICT industry development, we need to take the following three aspects:

1. Perfecting Infrastructure, Establishing a Holistic Intelligent Connection System.

The arrival of 5G-A technology provides operators with the opportunity to enter a new blue ocean track. Xu Ziyang elaborated on ZTE's layout in the vast field of holistic intelligent connection across four tracks - ground, low altitude, high altitude, and space, helping China Mobile build new infrastructure.

1. Ground Track:

• 10 Gigabit Network: ZTE has enabled 3CC for 90,000 communities, with a single user rate exceeding 5.4 Gbps, bringing users a brand new service experience.

• Industrial Production: ZTE launched the third generation 5-mode full-rate 50 GPON, empowering Xiong'an factory's AOI industrial production.

• Wireless Broadcasting: ZTE has pioneered a new wireless broadcasting model in the millimeter wave field, supporting CCTV Spring Festival Gala's wireless broadcasting.

• Vehicle-Road-Cloud Integration: ZTE built Zhuhai 5G full UU traffic governance multi-scenario application, achieving vehicle-road-cloud integration, setting a new benchmark for intelligent transportation.

• Smart Parking: In Deyang, Sichuan, ZTE has realized smart parking application through RedCap, significantly reducing deployment costs and cycle.

• Industrial Manufacturing: ZTE deployed a high-reliable data acquisition system with wireless connectivity at Hengyang Thermal Power Plant, saving nearly tens of thousands of meters of copper wire and millions of yuan in costs for customers, demonstrating the huge potential of 5G-A deterministic capabilities in the industrial field.

• Future Network: ZTE, together with Purple Mountain Laboratory and Jiangsu Future Network Group, successfully completed the world's first 400GE wide-area deterministic test on the future network. With a jitter of less than 5 microseconds over a transmission distance of 2000km, it meets the deterministic requirements of the network for high-precision application scenarios such as wide-area industrial control and large-scale networking.

2. Low Altitude Track:

• Communication and Sensing Integration Technology: ZTE, together with China Mobile, used communication and sensing + AI to build three-dimensional security in Honghe, Yunnan, identifying drone smuggling; they built the first 5G-A communication and sensing integrated low-altitude intelligent park in Yanqing, Beijing; jointly built a demonstration zone for low-altitude economic integration and innovation in Shenzhen; and jointly built a low-altitude intelligent airport in Zhangjiajie, identifying unauthorized drones and ensuring aviation flight safety.

3. High Altitude Track:

• 5G-ATG: ZTE independently developed CPE (Customer Premises Equipment), chips, and core algorithms that meet aviation standards, achieving a maximum coverage radius of 300 kilometers for a single base station. With a 100MHz bandwidth, the maximum downlink rate can reach 800 Mbps.

• Doppler Frequency Shift Algorithm: ZTE has developed advanced self-developed Doppler frequency shift algorithms that support speeds as high as 1200 kilometers per hour, ensuring stable communication in high-speed moving scenarios.

4. Space Track:

• LEO Low-Earth Orbit Satellite Internet: ZTE has successfully conducted the LEO low-earth orbit satellite internet project.

• GEO Geostationary Earth Orbit Satellite: ZTE has realized IoT-NTN real-time voice field verification on GEO geostationary earth orbit satellites, opening a new chapter in space-earth integrated communication.

2. Intelligent Upgrading, Building a Full-Stack Open Intelligent Computing System.

In the field of intelligent computing, ZTE adheres to the core proposition of "network-driven computing, training and deployment in parallel, open decoupling", providing a full-stack open intelligent computing solution to support China Mobile's AI+ action plan.

1. Network-Driven Computing:

• ZTE, together with China Mobile, is promoting the open interconnection of GPUs and jointly developing new interconnected supernode AI servers to break through the communication bottleneck of traditional GPU servers. This will enhance the efficiency of large model training from the infrastructure level.

• In the future, high bandwidth domain (HBD) can be extended from the machine to the inter-machine interconnection, laying a solid foundation for building larger-scale supernodes.

2. Training and Deployment in Parallel:

• ZTE and China Mobile are jointly exploring training and deployment integrated machines, aiming to solve the problem of the "last mile" of large model commercialization.

• "Zhirui Magic Cube AiCube" intelligent computing integrated machine has been explored and practiced in multiple industry fields, empowering 8 industries and over 20 application scenarios.

3. Open Decoupling:

• ZTE advocates and actively practices software and hardware decoupling, training and deployment decoupling, and model decoupling to maximize the integration of industry advantages and wisdom, jointly building a prosperous ecosystem.

• ZTE, with its full-stack open intelligent computing solutions, is actively exploring the implementation of AI in various industries, accelerating the intelligent process of the real economy, together with industry partners.

• Dongfeng Intelligent Painting Integrated Machine: ZTE, together with Hubei Mobile and Dongfeng Motor, jointly created the "Dongfeng Intelligent Painting Integrated Machine", achieving "infinite creativity, one-click car", which can generate various colors, scenes, and styles of renderings based on user instructions or design sketches.

• Fusion AI Platform: ZTE, together with China Mobile, is building a Fusion AI platform that supports the dynamic loading and flexible arrangement of AI capability plug-ins to achieve rapid innovation and launch of new call services, providing users with a brand-new experience of "multi-modal communication, innovative interaction".

• Intelligent User Experience Enhancement: ZTE, together with Henan Mobile, has carried out a commercial pilot project to enhance intelligent user experience in Xinyang. Through speed improvement and latency optimization, the fluency and image quality of cloud gaming are ensured.

• 5G-A Three-dimensional Security Architecture: ZTE, together with Yunnan Mobile and Honghe Public Security, jointly built a 5G-A three-dimensional security architecture. Based on 5G-A base station communication perception and AI analysis, it realizes full-process management from border perception to intelligent analysis, providing strong technical support for border security.

3. Close Cooperation in Scientific and Technological Innovation, Jointly Building Engines for Sustainable Growth in the Future.

Xu Ziyang mentioned that in the field of scientific and technological innovation, ZTE is also continuously promoting the transformation of research and development paradigms, striving to contribute more exploration and practice experiences to the industry.
