US companies to participate in discussions on 5G international standards with Huawei participation 16:41 June 16

The US government announced that it will allow US companies to participate in discussions on the development of international standards in which Huawei of China will participate in order to keep up with the development and operation of the new communication standard "5G". ..

With regard to 5G, a new high-speed, large-capacity communication standard, the introduction of this technology is spreading all over the world, and international standards are being set up mainly by China's Huawei and others.

However, American companies have been unable to participate in standard-setting discussions because the government has been prohibited from providing technology to Huawei.

If Huawei takes the initiative in creating international standards, it is expected that the market share will increase further, and the US industry has been concerned that it will fall behind with 5G technology.

Therefore, the US Department of Commerce announced a new rule on the 15th, and announced that it will allow US companies to participate in the discussion on the creation of 5G international standards.

This will allow US companies to disclose their technology to Huawei at meetings such as standard-setting meetings without the permission of the Department of Commerce.

In a statement, Secretary of Commerce Ross said, "We are not going to give control to the world's technological innovation." In the future, it seems that we would like to try to rewind.
