China Unicom and Huawei 5G super uplink achieve cross-site large-scale commercial use

As per the latest industry report, Guangzhou Unicom recently joined hands with Huawei to adopt the 5G super uplink “cross-site” flexible pairing technology for the first time in the industry to achieve large-scale commercial use of the entire network.

According to the information, a total of nearly 3,000 5G super uplink sites have been opened Through the 5G super uplink “cross-site” flexible pairing technology, it is possible to achieve the best super uplink pairing between a TDD (Time Division Duplex) cell and a nearby FDD (Frequency Division Duplex) cell. Effectively increase the effective proportion of 5G super uplink users, and improve 5G network coverage and user experience.

The current network test showed that Guangzhou Unicom adopted the 5G super uplink “cross-site” flexible pairing technology, and the uplink coverage of edge users increased by an average of 5dB. The proportion of low-rate experience of super uplink users on the entire network has been reduced from 15% to 3%, and the corresponding 5G traffic has also increased by 5~10% .

Huawei said that the large-scale deployment of the 5G Super Uplink will bring the network edge coverage and capacity improvement, which will bring the uplink video experience of Guangzhou Unicom Super Uplink users into the era of 1080p Full HD and 4K Ultra HD.
