Huawei released its Antenna Digitalization White Paper at the Global Mobile Broadband Forum 2024 (MBBF 2024) in Istanbul, Türkiye. The white paper explores new trends and key innovation directions in antenna digitalization and envisions the key role of the antenna industry in the mobile AI era.
AI is driving a new wave of technological transformations in many sectors, including wireless networks. For networks to become more intelligent, further innovation is needed in wireless network infrastructure. Antennas are a crucial component of wireless networks, and their digitalization will play a key role in the future.
The white paper states that network intelligence and automation require building digital capabilities for remote management and multidimensional adjustment of antennas. Remote management requires antennas to be capable of providing real-time, accurate information to network systems, including engineering parameters and beam shapes. Multidimensional adjustment means that antenna parameters, such as signal radiation directions and radiation beam shapes, can be remotely adjusted in real time.
The 15th Global Mobile Broadband Forum, with a tagline of ‘5.5G Leads Mobile AI Era’, was held from October 30 to 31, 2024. It was hosted by Huawei with support from its industry partners GSMA and GTI. Industry stakeholders discussed how to achieve 5.5G business success in the Mobile AI era, and leverage the success of 5G to attain even greater achievements with 5.5G.
