Beijing, October 10, 2023 /PRNewswire/ — The vivo Communications Research Institute today announced its latest 6G research findings at the company’s “The 6G Era Is Coming” conference. The institute released three white papers: “Convergence of AI and Communications,” “Integrated Sensing and Communications Technologies,” and “6G Network Architecture.” The event also marked the debut of multiple prototypes built by vivo using technologies said to be key to next-generation mobile communications standards and how 6G could shape consumer experiences and lifestyles. I got a glimpse of what I could do.
Since 2020, the vivo Communications Research Institute has published three previously released white papers: Digital Life 2030+, 6G Vision, Requirements, and Challenges, and 6G Services, Capabilities, and Enabling Technologies. We have been actively conducting extensive research on 6G. . ”
“At vivo, we believe that technology should serve consumers and enrich their lives in meaningful ways. This philosophy drives us to explore new frontiers from a consumer-first perspective. It is a driving force.” Chin Fei, CEO of vivo Communication Research Institute. “Reflecting this thinking, we are launching a series of whitepapers today that introduce concepts and concepts that we believe will help shape the 6G user experience, including AI, sensing technologies, and network architectures that natively support the convergence of mobile communications and computing. We look at the key technologies that will enable 6G.”
Fusion of AI and communication
Communication systems are evolving to meet demands for higher throughput, lower latency, higher reliability, and more connectivity. To this end, artificial intelligence (AI) is recognized as one of the foundational technologies for 6G and has the potential to provide notable solutions.
“AI can solve multiple challenges in 6G communication systems, support the advancement of communication technology, enhance signal transmission, and optimize network connectivity, resulting in more stable and smoother network connectivity anytime and anywhere. to consumers,” said Sun Peng, Director of Transmission. Vivo Communication Research Institute technology.
Given the important role that AI can play in the 6G user experience, vivo’s research was conducted from the perspective of device manufacturers. The vivo Communications Research Institute has put forward several system design principles, including integrated lifecycle management (LCM) based on logical nodes, which is the basis for establishing a future-proof, efficient, and sophisticated protocol architecture. Additionally, Peng also announced a decentralized AI 6G system designed by vivo, which is key to ensuring data privacy and security.
Integrated Sensing and Communications (ISAC)
The integration of sensing and communication technologies in 6G is expected to play a key role in many scenarios such as industrial automation, smart healthcare, smart transport, warehousing and logistics. Mr. Jiang Dajie, his 6G director at vivo Communications Research Institute, will introduce his key ISAC technologies such as waveform and signal design, multiband cooperative sensing, multi-antenna ISAC systems, coordinated multipoint for ISAC (CoMP), link adaptation, etc. We have introduced vivo’s position regarding this issue. , ISAC mobility management, and how to eliminate sensing non-ideal factors.
vivo also announced three ISAC prototypes based on different sensing modes, including base station (BS) monostatic sensing. Bistatic sensing from BS to UE, CoMP-based sensing. The prototype intuitively displays his ISAC scenarios such as position and velocity measurements, trajectory tracking, and respiratory monitoring.
“ISAC technology has the potential to impact how people interact with the digital world and play a key role in a variety of scenarios such as healthcare, intelligent transportation, and industrial automation. 6G systems will increase convenience for consumers in the future.” Jean Darzier.
6G network architecture
6G network architecture design is essential to effectively integrate communications, AI, and sensing technologies to meet anticipated 6G service requirements. At this event, vivo 6G specialist Yuan Yannan shared the design principles of his 6G network architecture for vivo and provided an overview of the system’s overall architecture and key technologies.
“The 6G network architecture has three main design principles: retaining the benefits of 5G, meeting new 6G requirements, and enhancing fundamental functionality. Based on these principles, the 6G network architecture will incorporate AI, ISAC, etc. , and provides users with the following features: Multi-dimensional services that go beyond communication to provide a great user experience,” said Yuan Yannan.
vivo believes that a series of key technologies, such as AI-enabled networks, near-zero-power IoT, 6G satellite integrated networks, and the convergence of mobile networks and computing, will open up significant new opportunities in the 6G era. With the advent of numerous cutting-edge technologies, mobile users can go beyond the limitations of hardware and play high-quality online games, interact with 3D virtual humans, and experience XR anytime and anywhere. It will look like this.
6G brings a future with great opportunities for the telecommunications industry and consumers. vivo’s 6G vision is to create a freely connected physical and digital world, and the company is working with industry partners around the world to make this vision a reality.
