Progress of Three Major Operators in 5G SMS Terminal

The terminal foundation is the foundation of the scale of the 5G messaging industry. "5G News" collates the progress and views of relevant leaders of China Mobile, China Telecom and China Unicom on terminal promotion at the "202 1 Asia-Pacific 5G Message Application Conference" jointly sponsored by Zhong Shi University of Technology and ZTE.

Wei, Vice President of China Mobile Research Institute

Wei Chenguang said that as of May 20021,1 1, 56 customized terminals had supported 5G messages; Mainstream terminal manufacturers have completed the first batch of commercial version push supporting the 5G message function.

At present, a cloud platform for conformance testing of 5G message protocol is being developed, which can effectively lower the research and development threshold of terminal manufacturers. At present, many terminal tests of mainstream brands have been completed. In addition, the protocol conformance test of chat bots is being developed to ensure a good and unified user experience of chat bots.

Empower the industrial chain and promote the adaptation and integration of 5G message SDK. Aiming at the technical research and product incubation of the 5G message SDK, the core functions of 5G messages such as DM device management, registration and authentication, one-to-one message and MaaP message are realized. Terminal manufacturers recognized operators' self-developed 5G message SDK, and the mode of joint research and development to empower the industrial chain and help business promotion was initially verified. At present, it is docking SDK terminal adaptation with Xiaomi, OPPO, VIVO, Kubi and other manufacturers, and Q2 is expected to complete the first terminal adaptation and warehousing test.

Next, China Mobile will accelerate the commercialization of 5G messages by expanding the scale of terminal coverage, enriching business capabilities and promoting the consistency of terminal experience.

Yang Lingcai, Director of Product Center of China Telecom Group

Yang Lingcai said that China Telecom actively promoted the terminal testing and terminal function coverage of 5G messages, and has completed the terminal testing of more than 10 terminal brands such as Samsung, Meizu, OPPO, Huawei, ZTE, Hisense and Xiaomi. In February, 2002 1, the 5G message terminal Tianyi1supporting China Telecom went public.

As for the standard of 5G message terminal, Yang Lingcai said that 5G message is a part of the standard system of 5G construction, which requires the joint efforts of the three major operators and relevant institutions of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology to promote the terminal's native support for 5G message to become a reality.

Based on mutual complementarity and win-win, it is expected that all parties can abandon some immediate interest disputes, pay more attention to long-term cooperation space, create a bigger new blue ocean, and meet various network environments and various user terminals. In the future, in the ecological chain of 5G messaging services, there will be more AI and big data technology applications to provide users and customers with more high-value services. "

Zhang Yunyong, General Manager of China Unicom Group Product Center

Zhang Yunyong believes that in the new stage of development, with the commercialization of operators' 5G scale and the collective upgrading of supply capacity, cooperation and coordination have brought new development momentum. Global terminals are widely supported, and message service has won a new application ecology. At the same time, the industry development ushered in a new pattern. Industry customers, CSP operators, terminal manufacturers and users are five in one, working together for the end-to-end business experience. On the other hand, it is a new development pattern, and regulatory authorities, standards organizations, and 5G news working groups are also guiding and leading the orderly development of the industry.

In the future, China Unicom will jointly promote technological evolution and model innovation with China Mobile and China Telecom. Terminals provide full-time access channels for the whole network, gradually covering a large number of rich communication Internet of Things terminals.

In addition, ZTE officially announced at the conference that all ZTE mobile phones support 5G messages.
