China Online News, July 1 (Zheng Yingying) "5G can be said to be the first of the new digital infrastructure. By the end of May this year, Shanghai has built more than 20,000 5G outdoor base stations, and the city center basically achieves 5G outdoor coverage, so it is said 5G has really come to us." Wu Jincheng, director of the Shanghai Municipal Commission of Economics and Information Technology, said on the 1st in an interview with the 2020 Shanghai Minsheng.
He introduced that Shanghai originally planned to complete 10,000 outdoor base stations every year for 3 consecutive years, a total of 30,000. Now it is confident that it can complete 30,000 5G outdoor base stations (construction) in two years, which is a three-year task and two years to complete .
Shanghai plans to complete the deep coverage of 5G networks in ten commercial districts such as Nanjing East Road, Xujiahui and Lujiazui this year. In terms of improving the 5G network experience of transportation hubs, Shanghai plans to complete 5G coverage of transportation hubs such as the main areas of Pudong and Hongqiao airports and the underground station hall platforms of 297 subways this year.
Wu Jincheng said that the use of 5G for mobile phones will definitely make the speed faster, but the greater value of 5G is used in the To B (commercial) field, which is to empower all walks of life. For example, in terms of "5G + intelligent manufacturing", COMAC can control the production status in real time through a 5G fully connected factory, and realize highly lean production of the factory. The equipment utilization rate has been increased by 70%, and the factory operating efficiency has been increased by 30%.
He said that 5G may be applied in all aspects of industrial manufacturing, medical treatment, education, and urban management. There are currently more than 270 5G applications being promoted in Shanghai. (Finish)
