The first 5G industrial service platform in China was put on line in Mawei, Fuzhou City, Fujian recently. Jointly constructed by Fuzhou Internet of Things Open Lab and Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd., the platform will be built into a one-stop industrial technology service platform for 5G industry applications, which will provide industrial services such as industry standards, 5G fusion application testing and verification, common technology R&D, joint project innovation, and talent cultivation. 

The rapid development of 5G technology has spawned a large number of 5G mobile terminal products in various industries across the country. However, these products are facing the common bottlenecks prior to application: lack of standard and professional testing, and even no standardized 5G testing environment. With the advantages of its IoT industry, Mawei District of Fuzhou has made attempts to solve the problem. 

On the 18th Oct, the reporter saw in Fuzhou Internet of Things Open Lab that Huawei 5GC, MEC edge computing servers and 5G base stations have been equipped for the 5G core network and base station system room, forming a complete 5G terminal testing system, which can support the laboratory and Huawei 5G ecological certification testing and other testing services. 

"The development and production of terminal products should take into account the applicability of various environments including signal strength. We cannot adjust the networks originally provided by operators. The 5G core network we have built now is controllable and adjustable, which can help terminal manufacturers perform any simulation tests, so as to speed up the product marketing and further improve the performance and quality of products." Peng Kong, the vice president of the laboratory, said. 

This is a platform where the vehicle-road collaboration project of Mawei Bus M1 has been tested. It is also the first demonstration case. This is the first 5G-V2X intelligent networked bus line actually operated in the province. These buses are provided with on-board units, which can realize the vehicle-road and vehicle-vehicle cooperative communication under the 5G network. In the process of continuous test, Mawei has put in 10 intelligentized buses. 

At 10: 00 am on the 18th Oct, the M1 bus pulled out of Mawei Kuai'an Bus Station. While driving, the vehicle kept sending traffic tips to the driver Master Peng: "Pedestrians ahead, slow down", "Blind area on the left, Caution!", "Slow moving ahead, Keep distance!" ... As it turns out, the vehicle can prompt and warn the safe distance from the vehicle in front in real time; When turning is required, it can also give a warning and slow down. 

"Thanks to 5G's high speed and low delay, the response speed of this 5G bus is faster than that of the human brain," the head of the laboratory technical service department introduced. The vehicle can also automatically judge the state of the traffic lights ahead, and realize green wave driving at the best speed. When a fire engine or an ambulance is detected, the vehicle will prompt to stop and give way or slow down. Recently, further upgrades have been made to the bus, with millimeter-wave radar, camera, RSU (road side unit), etc. added, which makes the driving safer and more efficient.
