CTOnews.com, February 24, China Telecom, together with Huawei and other industrial partners, will recently be able to complete the country's first mine scene RedCap test in Inner Mongolia. The test results show that RedCap can meet the needs of self-driving, remote control and other business applications, and will promote the application of RedCap technology in 5G smart mine scenarios.

The test was carried out by China Telecom Inner Mongolia Branch, Zhuneng Group, Tianyi 5G Internet of things Joint Open Laboratory and Huawei RedCap technical team. Based on the customized private network solution of China Telecom 5G mine and using 3.5GHz commercial spectrum, the test team verified the key contents of RedCap in the smart mine scenario, such as basic function, service rate, time delay, network coverage and so on.

Different from the laboratory field test, this test integrates the actual performance requirements and scenario requirements of the existing network, fully verifies the ability of RedCap to produce core scenarios, and lays a foundation for the scale replication of 5G RedCap industry solutions in the future.

RedCap (CTOnews.com Note: all referred to as Reduced Capability) is a key 5G new technology in the 3GPP R17 phase. By simplifying the number of terminal antennas and reducing the transceiver bandwidth, RedCap greatly reduces the cost and size, and achieves the best balance between performance and cost. Compared with 4G RedCap, it has better performance and supports 5G native capabilities such as network slicing, low delay, high reliability and large capacity, which will fill the gap in the low-cost, medium-speed and high-speed 5G market.
