Shulou(Shulou.com)11/24 Report--

The 2023 World Mobile Communications Congress Barcelona (MWC 2023) was officially held in Barcelona, Spain, from February 27 to March 2. As one of the most influential exhibitions in the field of mobile communications in the world, MWC was first held in Madrid, Spain in 1995. Since it reached a new high in the number of visitors in 2008, it has become a technological frontier for smartphone manufacturers, operators and equipment manufacturers.

This year's MWC has made a strong comeback after three years of unusually deserted conditions affected by the epidemic. Nokia replaced the new logo, Motorola's scroll screen phone Rizr, a concept machine with active liquid cooling, Honor Magic 5. A number of innovative products and technologies compete to make their debut, bringing people a "gluttonous feast" of science and technology.

The Industrial Network reporter summed up the cutting-edge technology of MWC 2023 in the industrial Internet. Let's take a look.

On the 26th, the day before MWC, China Telecom held the first meeting of the first board of directors of the Global Cloud Broadband Industry Association (WBBA). The first board of directors of WBBA was composed of industry leaders from network operators, equipment manufacturers and test manufacturers from 12 countries, including China, Switzerland and New Zealand. At the preparatory meeting of the board of directors, Li Zhengmao, former general manager of China Telecom, was elected chairman of the first board of directors of WBBA.

It is reported that WBBA, officially announced on December 9 last year, is a global, industry-led, multilateral cooperation, leading the future cloud broadband development of non-governmental organizations, non-profit organizations, on November 11, 2022, the Swiss Federal Government issued the organization number, and officially entered the list of Swiss international organizations.

As the initiator, builder and promoter of WBBA, China Telecom actively promotes various issues of WBBA, and the board of directors can be described as a milestone of WBBA. In terms of industrial Internet, Xia Bing, deputy general manager of China Telecom, once said that China Telecom's cloud-network convergence is a direct embodiment of the comprehensive capability for the superposition of multi-elements of the industrial Internet. In the face of the application needs of the industrial Internet, on the one hand, China Telecom has formed an integrated ubiquitous connection capability of "land, sea, air and space", which has well solved the extremely complex connection problems such as multi-terminals and multi-protocols of the industrial Internet; on the other hand, by providing multi-form and high-performance ubiquitous computing power, it provides efficient processing capability for all-element and full-scene data of the industrial Internet. In the future, WBBA will also make efforts in uniting the upper and lower reaches of the cloud network broadband industry chain and promoting the construction of cloud network integration information infrastructure and innovation and development, we also have reason to look forward to, hope that WBBA can one day become the "GSMA" of the fixed network industry.

In addition, at the launch of the 5G co-construction and sharing guide held by GSMA on February 27, Li Jun, deputy general manager of China Telecom, also pointed out that in the early commercial stage of 5G, global operators face four major challenges, one of which is related to the industrial Internet, that is, it requires rich toC / toB scenarios and 5G technology to adapt to meet the differentiated and customized needs of 5G various industries.

Yang Jie, chairman of China Mobile, appeared creatively in the way of "Digital Homo sapiens". "Mathematical Homo sapiens" is created by China Mobile using face modeling, expression transfer, speech synthesis and other technologies, which can simulate human appearance and behavior, and even achieve "digital reproduction" of ideas in the future.

In recent years, with the continuous development of VR, AI, meta-universe and other technologies, the image of "virtual digital human" appears in the evening program many times. According to the 2022 China Virtual Digital Human influence Index report, the virtual digital human industry has developed rapidly in 2022. There are more than 587000 enterprises related to virtual digital human in China, and nearly half of the enterprises were established in nearly one year. It has become a new tuyere for meta-universe. On the industrial side, technologies such as VR, AI and metasmology are also constantly developing and evolving. A few days ago, Baidu Intelligent Cloud announced that "Wenxin word" will provide services through Baidu Smart Cloud, bringing AI benefits to the industry. The first AI + industrial Internet industrial base in the Yangtze River Delta was also unveiled in Changshu, Suzhou. Chairman Yang Jie attended the major event for the first time as a "digital Homo sapiens". On the one hand, he demonstrated China Mobile's achievements in virtual digital human, and it also made people imagine the application prospects of VR, AI, meta-universe and other technologies in various industries.

In addition, Dong Xin, general manager of China Mobile, also attended the conference and delivered a keynote speech. Dong Xin pointed out that "digitization" is one of the most certain global trends in the next decade. If it is compared to a seed, once it sprouts on the ground, it will thrive and become a forest. China Mobile and its partners have jointly built a "5G + smart factory" and built a dedicated network of 5G enterprises with an area of more than 5 million square meters, successfully solving the pain points of extreme manufacturing, and has become one of the advanced manufacturing bases at the forefront of the world. China Mobile is willing to join hands with all parties to speed up the replication and promotion of smart factories and other applications, continue to meet the personalized needs of large-scale users, and accelerate the popularization of the new generation of information technology.

China Unicom made outstanding new achievements in the industrial Internet at this conference, not only issued the "5G / 5G-A deterministic network enabling vertical industry white paper", but also jointly with ZTE issued a series of technological innovation achievements of 5G-A deterministic industrial Internet.

Among them, the "5G / 5G-A deterministic network enabling vertical industry white paper" comprehensively expounds the deterministic guarantee system and technical scheme of 5G / 5G-An industrial Internet from five aspects: time delay certainty, space-time certainty, service perception certainty, reliable certainty and security certainty.

In addition, China Unicom also held "5G Innovation leads the Future of Digital Intelligence-- China Unicom 5G Innovation Conference". Liu Liehong, chairman of China Unicom, said in his English speech that it is necessary to vigorously promote the large-scale application of To B and To G on a 5G scale.
