43Management Discussion and Analysis
Research and Development
Focusing on the ICT pipe strategy, we have increased
our investment in future-proof basic research and
innovation, particularly in key technologies, basic
engineering capabilities, architectures, standards,
and product development. We aim to create a better
user experience by providing broader, smarter, and
more reliable pipes with higher performance and zero
wait time. Huawei is committed to translating leading
technologies into greater competitiveness and business
success for customers.
In the wireless domain, Huawei has:
■Continued to lead 4G innovation. We launched
CA technology for multiple base stations over IP
RANs for simplified deployment, and also applied
interference coordination technology to significantly
enhance network performance and user experience.
■Become the first company in the industry to propose
the concept and definition of 4.5G, and introduced
LTE to the world of IoT.
■Emerged as a pioneer of 5G innovation. We proposed
SCMA, a key technology for 5G air interfaces that
significantly increases the number of connections in
wireless systems. This technology has been accepted
by the EU's FP7 METIS 2020 project, and is well-
known throughout the industry.
■Released a high-frequency wireless 115G prototype,
which verifies the limits of high-frequency
communications.
■Partnered with mainstream automobile
manufacturers in Europe to research 5G technologies
for IoV and define the requirements of future
self-driving technologies on 5G communications
networks; verified 5G IoT devices with ultra-low
power consumption.
■Pioneered research into next-generation Wi-Fi. We
became the first company to propose the concept
of 10GiFi, and launched the industry's first 10GiFi
prototype with next-generation architecture,
drawing an enthusiastic response from the industry.
In the fixed network domain, Huawei has:
■Continued to lead innovation in core router, high-
speed transport, and ultra-broadband access
technologies.
■Passed the test for the industry's first core router 1T
line card at EANTC, made a breakthrough in 400G
clustering technology, and facilitated the large-scale
commercial application of 400G clusters.
■Released the industry's first commercial 1T WDM
card, and worked with carriers to pass the testing
for 3 Tbit/s WDM cards on live networks. The rate
is equivalent to transmitting 100 uncompressed HD
movies per second.
■Became the first vendor to begin researching G.fast,
developed the industry's first G.fast prototype, and
released SuperVector technology, which increased
the speed of existing copper wires threefold.
■Launched the SmartAX MA5800, the industry's
first smart OLT with distributed architecture at
the Broadband World Forum 2014. This product
supports non-blocking access for 100G-PON and
provides 100 Mbit/s non-blocking bandwidth to
32,000 homes, allowing users to seamlessly enjoy
4K videos.
■Developed the industry's first microwave borne CPRI
network based on high-order modulation microwave
technology, which supports a backhaul bandwidth
of 4 Gbps.
