China ranks first in the world in terms of 5G patents, and is now leading the world in 5G construction. 993 thousand 5G base stations have been built, accounting for more than two-thirds of the world. A few days ago, Huawei further stated that the 6G network will be built in 2030.
Huawei’s rotating chairman Xu Zhijun stated in his preface to the book “The New Journey of 6G Wireless Communications” that 6G is expected to be put on the market around 2030.
While continuing to promote the commercial use of 5G, Huawei also started investing in 6G research in 2017. Huawei is also willing to conduct extensive discussions with the industry and industries and companies that may need 6G in the future, and jointly look forward to 6G and jointly define 6G.
In addition to Huawei, ZTE, OPPO, vivo and other companies have already deployed the 6G market in advance, and have organized scientific research teams to study related technologies. It is generally expected that they will be commercialized around 2030.
According to the 48th “Statistical Report on China’s Internet Development Status” released by the China Internet Network Information Center, my country has become the main source country for 6G patent applications. At present, the number of global patent applications in the field of 6G communication technology exceeds 38,000, of which my country’s patent applications account for 35% (more than 13,000, or about 15,800), ranking first in the world.
However, the prospect of 6G is not all smooth sailing. Lu Jianhua, an academician of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, recently stated that the real demand for 6G should come from the market and focus on solving practical problems. It is necessary to avoid conjectures and arbitrary decisions, and not to replace application requirements with technological trends.
