With more than half of 2018, the development of the entire 5G has also been developed from the beginning of the technical research and development, standard development, and industries to cooperate to today's commercial landing stages. Whether it is a relevant policy development department, or operators, equipment and terminal manufacturers, there is a lot of preparations for 5G commercial landing; especially in smartphone terminal manufacturers directly docked directly, there is already A lot of 5G related action.
Simply, 5G is getting closer and closer from the truth; but in the process of this landing, Qualcomm's role is particularly important.
Three major smartphone manufacturers to force 5G
For ordinary users, 5G seems to be only in all kinds of news reports in some news reports, and it is still unreachable. But over time, it entered the last few days in late August 2018, when the mainstream smartphone manufacturer had a big movement in 5G, it was a real thing to realize that 5G was really coming.
On August 28th, the world ranked fifth smartphone vendor OPPO took the lead in successing the connection of 5G signaling and data links based on integrated Qualcomm Snapda Dragon X50 5G modem. The success of this signaling and data link is based on the 3GPP Release 15 NSA standard, with a 10MHz bandwidth of 4G LTE Band 5 and a 20MHz bandwidth of 5G NR N78 band. This connection uses OPPO R15-based commercial 5G smartphone implementation, fully verifying related technologies that can be used to accelerate 5G smartphone development.
Two days later, on August 30th, OPPO's old opponent Vivo announced afterwards, based on Vivo Nex, it has already completed the commercial 5G smartphone software hardware and software development, including architecture planning, motherboard stacking, radio frequency and antenna Design and optimize battery space and other aspects, and have reached a commercial level in size and appearance; Vivo also said that its 5G mobile phone is about to enter the network equipment joint test work.
Although Vivo does not indicate which company is based on the hardware development of 5G smartphones, the Lei Feng.com learned that the Vivo 5G smartphone is also using Qualcomm Snapdron X50 modem.
However, it seems to be because of not dry, after the two of the OV declared their respective 5G progress, Xiaomi also announced in the last day of August, Xiaomi mobile phone successfully opened 5G signaling and data link connections. Xiaomi also claims that the connection is used by Qualcomm Snapdragon X50 5G modem and supporting RF scheme, and has made targeted optimization for mobile phone motherboard stacking, RF / antenna design, which has made a foundation for the official launch of 5G mobile phone next year.
The above three major domestic mobile phone manufacturers announced that 5G related movements have been unsettled, and they have to feel the urgent situation of 5G commercialization to land; but in the opinion network, OPPO, Vivo and millet have announced the back of 5G progress, they You can't leave Qualcomm to support in 5G.
It can be said that it is based on the technical accumulation and product layout of Qualcomm in the 5G field. It supports OV millet to successfully perform the above 5G related data connection tests and hardware and software development work in the premise of the existing latest 5G standards. Promoted 5G commercial landing process.
Simply, there is no Qualcomm, 5G will not come so fast.
Qualcomm Helps 5G commercial development
In fact, as one of the world's earliest layout 5G communications industry giants, Qualcomm has launched many major achievements in 5G, especially in 5G mobile terminal, and continues to lead the development of the industry.
It is learned that Qualcomm has opened 5G R & D work over 10 years ago, and leads the development of 5G technology and standards all the way. As early as 2016, Qualcomm released the world's first 5G commercial baseband scheme - Snapdragon X50 5G modem. This baseband can support two most important 5G bands below 6GHz and millimeter waves, or support NSA (non-independent) and SA (independent) 5G networking mode, which supports mobile phone manufacturers to develop facilities for different countries 5G mobile phones in different 5G deployment modes are particularly important.
At present, 18 operators and 20 OEM vendors in the world have announced the development of 5G test or terminal development based on the Snapdragon X50, which includes three OV meters that breakthrough in 5G terminals.
In addition to the baseband, 5G network complex spectrum is also a big challenge for RF design of 5G mobile phones, especially the introduction of 5G high-frequency millimeter waves, and mobile phones need to use a large number of antennas to overcome high frequency signal attenuation. How to maintain The light design of 5G mobile phones, this is a problem for OEM vendors. As a small partner of Chinese mobile phone manufacturers, Qualcomm has a deep understanding of their needs, and also actively planning for their problems.
Just a few months ago, Qualcomm launched the world's first intelligent mobile phone and other mobile terminals, 5G millimeters, 6GHz or less RF module, which can be matched with the Snapdragon X50 5G baseband, providing from the base to the antenna. Multiple features, cover millimeter wave and 6GHz. It is worth noting that QTM052 mm wave antenna module launched by Qualcomm is not as good as a coin size, supports compact package sizes to be integrated with mobile terminals. The millimeter wave antenna module solves the increase in the number of mobile phone size, which can help the OEM manufacturer's application in the effective space of mobile phone, and support these terminals to commercially available in the market in 2019.
Qualcomm has been a key to promoting domestic mobile phones rapidly in the past. In the face of the world's 5G trials and tests that are accelerating, Qualcomm will maintain a more close cooperation with domestic mobile phone manufacturers.
In January of this year, China-Tong and OV rice and other China leader announced the 5G pilot plan, I hope to accelerate the speed of 5G commercial use through multiple cooperation. In addition to mobile phone manufacturers, Qualcomm also actively develops 5G test and trials with operators, basic equipment manufacturers. At the end of last year, Qualcomm and China Mobile and Zhongxing completed the world's first 3GPP-based end-to-end 5G new vacation system interoperability; this month, Qualcomm and Datang Mobile followed the third stage of national 5G technology research and development test, 5G The new vacant interoperability test is prepared for the 5G scale trial and preparation of 2019.
Summarize
For Qualcomm, I have experienced the rule of 4G era, and 5G is undoubtedly ambiguous. And the deep sources of Qualcomm and the Chinese market have laid the foundation for its deep cooperation between China's smartphone manufacturers. Whether it is OPPO, VIVO or Xiaomi, has announced that 5G smartphone products will be launched in 2019. In the three major Chinese smartphone manufacturers, they have been sword-finger 5G, we have reason to believe that Qualcomm will continue to lead 5G commercial development processes and will have an irreplaceable contribution to 5G terminal commercial.
