Huawei Strives to Build industry Intelligent Twins with Intelligent Connectivity
SHANGHAI, Sept. 24, 2020 /PRNewswire-AsiaNet/ --

At HUAWEI CONNECT 2020, Huawei announced its all-scenario intelligent 
connectivity solutions for technology, network, and industry scenarios. These 
solutions will help Huawei deliver intelligent connectivity that is 
characterized by ubiquitous gigabit, deterministic experience, and 
hyper-automation in order to build industry Intelligent Twins. Huawei also 
launched autonomous driving network (ADN) solutions for enterprises, propelling 
enterprise networks into the ADN era and accelerating the intelligent upgrades 
of industries.

David Wang, Huawei Executive Director and Chairman of the Investment Review 
Board, delivered a keynote speech titled "Building industry Intelligent Twins 
with intelligent connectivity." According to Mr. Wang, connectivity is 
productivity. It is not mere computing power, but strong connectivity that 
makes Intelligent Twins smarter.

Huawei believes that ubiquitous gigabit, deterministic experience, and 
hyper-automation are the three major characteristics of intelligent 
connectivity.

Intelligent Twins raise five new requirements for connectivity

The four key components of Intelligent Twins are intelligent interactions, 
intelligent connectivity, intelligent applications, and the intelligent hub. 
Among these, intelligent connectivity is like the body of Intelligent Twins. 
What new requirements do Intelligent Twins place on intelligent connectivity?

There are three types of connectivity scenarios for Intelligent Twins. One is 
connectivity within the intelligent hub, such as the connection of AI cluster 
servers and cloud data centers. The second is connectivity between the 
intelligent hub and intelligent interaction devices; connecting the "brain" and 
the "limbs", so to speak. The last type is connectivity between intelligent 
interaction devices, such as the connection of AI cameras, 4K drones, and 
robotic arms.

Overall, Intelligent Twins have five major requirements for connectivity: High 
reliability, zero packet loss, differentiated services, real-time high 
bandwidth, and smart O&M.

To meet the connectivity needs of Intelligent Twins, Huawei defined the three 
major characteristics of intelligent connectivity:

The first is ubiquitous gigabit. Bandwidth is the basis of connectivity. The 
wide application of AI cameras, drones, industrial cameras, and industrial 
VR/AR services has made ubiquitous gigabit connectivity essential.

The second is deterministic experience. Connectivity for Intelligent Twins 
mainly targets things and diverse production scenarios. For example, during 
peak times in 2019, there was one aircraft departing or arriving at Shenzhen 
Airport every less than one minute, making it essential to guarantee real-time 
networking. In another example, electric power companies must assure "six 
nines", or even higher reliability, and less than two minutes of power outage 
per household per year. Therefore, deterministic connectivity is vital to the 
security and reliability of enterprise services.

The third is hyper-automation. As industries become intelligent, the service 
types as well as scale and complexity of networks will multiply, making network 
O&M more difficult. The application of big data and AI will transform 
traditional and semi-automated O&M into hyper-automated O&M, and leave all 
these complexities to be handled by digital intelligence.

Huawei's all-scenario intelligent connectivity solutions

In terms of technology, Huawei's all-scenario intelligent connectivity 
solutions will provide ubiquitous gigabit and low latency connectivity for 
intelligent interaction devices, and apply AI to achieve deterministic network 
experience and hyper-automated O&M. In terms of networks, these solutions will 
provide Intelligent Twins with campus, data center, WAN, and security networks. 
As for industries, intelligent connectivity will be combined with intelligent 
interactions, the intelligent hub, and industry know-how to build 
scenario-specific, intelligent solutions for industries.

- 5G intelligent connectivity: Gigabit uplink speed, 20ms latency, and 
submeter-level location

To support the intelligent upgrade of industries, Huawei will continue 
enhancing its 5G intelligent connectivity capabilities in terms of uplink 
bandwidth, latency, and location accuracy. For example, in the smart 
manufacturing domain, Huawei used its Super Uplink technology to provide 
gigabit uplink speeds for HD video uploads. For scenarios that require remote 
operation and control, such as ports, Huawei's 5G intelligent connectivity 
technology has introduced features such as pre-scheduling and mini-slot to 
reduce latency to 20ms and replace 90% of manual labor with automated 
operations. Thanks to UTDOA and higher bandwidth, Huawei's 5G intelligent 
connectivity can support submeter-level location accuracy for smart 
manufacturing, enhancing the efficiency of production and management at 
industrial parks.

- Intelligent IP networks: High bandwidth and lossless for all services

Based on a three-layer AI architecture comprised of network elements, networks, 
and clouds, Huawei's intelligent IP networks facilitate the upgrade of campus, 
WAN, and data center networks to Version 2.0.

Huawei's CloudCampus 2.0 solution takes campus networks into the gigabit era, 
providing any application with gigabit connectivity via any device and allowing 
the intelligent scheduling of network resources. The CloudWAN 2.0 solution 
brings intelligence to WAN networks. With CloudWAN 2.0, synergy can be achieved 
between clouds and networks, meeting the needs for differentiated services. 
CloudFabric 2.0 enables zero packet loss in data center networks and increases 
both AI compute and storage efficiency by over 30%, helping data center 
networks become intelligent.

- F5G intelligent all-optical networks: High bandwidth interconnection and 
flexible pipes

Huawei has proposed the all-optical network strategy for the F5G era, and 
launched three intelligent all-optical network solutions.

The first is the Campus OptiX solution. Campus OptiX offers high bandwidth 
access to meet campus needs for new services such as 4K cameras and VR/AR.

The second is Single OptiX. This solution can meet transmission needs at 
different rates while greatly increasing efficiency.

The third is DC OptiX. IT staff can deploy DC OptiX with just one click, making 
it a plug-and-play solution for enterprise scenarios.

Through this strategy, Huawei is committed to extending optical connectivity to 
the network edge, and bringing the ultimate service experience to every person, 
home and organization.

Huawei's ADN solutions target enterprises

Huawei's ADN solutions bring intelligence to networks. By integrating AI into 
network elements, networks, and clouds, Huawei's ADN networks are 
self-organizing, self-healing, and self-optimizing. These solutions will make 
digital industry services and hyper-automated operations a reality.

Network elements + AI: AI is applied to upgrade traditional network elements 
into digital, intelligent network elements, allowing for more agile data 
sensing and processing of every network element.

Network + AI: Huawei uses AI to redefine network management. The intelligent 
management and control system helps build network digital twins, and enables 
the dynamic control and closed-loop management of networks, such as automatic 
deployment, pre-event simulation, post-event verification, prediction and 
prevention, and proactive optimization.

Cloud + AI: Huawei provides cloud-based AI training and model services for 
networks, and continues upgrading the software systems and AI models that are 
already embedded into its equipment and networks. This constantly improves 
autonomous driving networks and makes networks smarter.

Huawei's customers from Shenzhen Airport, China Southern Power Grid, and SPD 
Bank shared the application of Huawei intelligent connectivity across the 
transportation, electricity, and finance sectors.

Mr. Wang concluded his speech by saying: "Over the past 40 years, Huawei has 
worked with all stakeholders to connect the unconnected and build a fully 
connected world. Over the next 40 years, we are committed to building industry 
Intelligent Twins with intelligent connectivity."
