Shanxi 5G technology empowered to help industrial transformation

Introduction 5G is a key new type of infrastructure to support the digital, networked and intelligent transformation of the economy and society. Driven by the relevant policies and departments at all levels *** with the efforts of Shanxi Province, 5G development continues to accelerate, 5G base station opening ratio ranked the first national square. Experts said that 5G empowered industrial more will profoundly drive the fourth industrial revolution. Seize the opportunity of 5G convergence application, Shanxi has been actively exploring in the smart mine, smart transportation, smart city, etc., and take a robust pace.

1, 5G downhole R & D spawned a new hundred billion blue ocean

Today, in the Xinyuan coal mine, relying on the 3 major characteristics of the 5G network of high speed, large connection, low latency, the operation of more than 500 meters deep downhole into the ground remote control. Previously, inspection workers had to walk 5-8 kilometers a day, but now these "underground sentinels" are gradually being replaced by robots.

Xinyuan coal mine through the underground 5G private network to achieve the coal mine production less manpower, automation, visualization, the first in the country's intelligent mine.

To realize coal mine intelligence, network communication is the foundation. The high bandwidth and large uplink of 5G network can transmit a large number of high-definition videos from underground to the centralized control center on the ground, and through video recognition and AI analysis, it can realize the automatic identification and analysis of hidden dangers and equipment failures underground.

To achieve the goal of intelligent mine construction, facing three major "neck" problem: first, insufficient bandwidth, the current underground 4G and WiFi network bandwidth is seriously insufficient; second, in the underground mining surface work, the optical fiber is easy to break; third, the underground communication needs to be switched between different base stations continuously, and WiFi base station switching is discontinuous. Switching is not continuous. And 5G with three major characteristics, precisely at the same time to solve these three major problems.

In fact, since last year, Shanxi Province has proposed the construction of 5G intelligent mine. In addition to Xinyuan Coal Mine, Shanxi Coking Coal Huozhou Coal Power's Pangpangta Mine is also carrying out the construction of 5G underground network. In addition, 11 other coal mines in Shanxi province are carrying out 5G smart construction. Coal machine enterprises are realizing the application of digital twin and industrial Internet and other technologies in the field of coal mining through the construction of 5G+industrial Internet platform for coal machines. The construction of these projects can be said to provide a Shanxi model and Shanxi model for the intelligent transformation of coal mines across the country.

2, Shanxi's new 5G infrastructure to press the accelerator button

By the end of 2020, Shanxi Province plans to complete 15,000 5G base stations. As of the end of September, the province's 5G construction has completed a total investment of 4 billion yuan, a total of 14,220 open 5G base stations, 94.8% of the annual target. The three major operators have realized the basic coverage of 5G in the urban center of the province, and are extending to the county. The province's 5G base station construction and opening rate ranked first in the country.

The reason why so much attention and accelerated progress to carry out the construction of 5G base stations is because the industrial chain of 5G is relatively long, and through the construction of 5G base stations, it can stimulate the development of materials, chips, equipment and other industries, thus promoting the province's integrated circuits and software industries to enhance the level of technology and innovation capacity.

3, 5G empowers all walks of life and advances to the depths

5G wave is coming, Shanxi is leading the country in 5G infrastructure, in industrial applications is also fast and steady, running out of 5G application of Shanxi speed. After the new infrastructure pressed the accelerator button, 5G is empowering all walks of life in our province, and to the depth of the advancement.

If the future of the city has an intelligent brain, then transportation is the nerve center of this intelligent brain. Through the 5G network to people, cars, roads, cloud four basic elements linked together, all the road data transmission to the cloud, and then from the cloud to the information feedback to each traffic participant, can help us quickly avoid congested road, choose the best route.

At present, Yangquan is carrying out driverless road network collaborative testing. 5 kilometers of test road has been completed construction, 15 kilometers of high-speed road has completed the gantry as well as equipment installation debugging, is expected to be completed by the end of this year. After the project is completed, it will become a brand new business card in the field of artificial intelligence and big data in Shanxi province.

In addition to mining and transportation, Shanxi Province is also focusing on promoting the application of 5G in many fields such as industrial Internet, smart agriculture, smart culture and tourism, and smart medical care. Especially in the field of 5G + industrial Internet, TISCO has built a 5G + intelligent steel joint laboratory, established a 5G + intelligent chemical laboratory, and is using 5G to realize intelligent control and operation, and Oasis Textile is also actively utilizing 5G technology to realize precise control of the production process.

By the end of 2020, Shanxi Province plans to build 15,000 5G base stations, Shanxi ahead of the layout, accelerated, 5G base station construction opening rate ranked in the first national square, seize the 5G convergence of the application of the first opportunity, in the wisdom of the mine, intelligent transportation, smart city and other aspects of active exploration.
