5G technology - the solution to the problem of hyper-connectivity

In the context of the explosion of the 4.0 revolution, when the number of connections is large and the amount of data is huge, existing data transmission technologies such as wifi and 4G cannot meet the data transmission needs. 5G technology is the solution to the problem of high-speed hyper-connectivity, forming a new digital infrastructure to promote the development of the digital economy, digital society, and digital government in Vietnam...

According to Mr. Le Quang Hieu, Deputy General Director of Viettel Enterprise Solutions Corporation: “5G has 3 outstanding features such as extremely low latency, extremely large bandwidth, connecting millions of different devices. 5G is the first infrastructure for digital ecosystems in industries to comprehensively automate, reduce occupational safety risks, and increase productivity. On the 5G infrastructure, Viettel provides flexible upper-layer service applications for each industry. 5G combined with IoT, AIoT will help collect and analyze big data, support users in making decisions or automate processing processes”.

Ready for a diverse and comprehensive 5G2B ecosystem

5G application creates a comprehensive revolution in the field of industrial production. Extremely high speed and extremely low latency of only 1-5ms, extremely high connection density, 5G solves the problem of connecting extremely high-density devices such as machines, IoT sensors, cameras, etc. in areas between the production line and the production operating system associated with data, helping managers operate in real time in each production stage, promptly adjusting to market fluctuations.

In smart factories, the application of product quality inspection solutions via 5G connection helps transmit a large number of high-quality 4K, 8K images and process image analysis using AI at the edge to improve product defect detection rate up to over 99%, low latency of 5G connection combined with image processing at the edge helps shorten product completion time, thereby increasing factory productivity.

For the energy sector (such as mining, electricity, oil and gas), 5G could have a transformative impact. 5G is the connectivity infrastructure to promote the application of smart solutions in operations, monitoring, maintenance, and servicing.

Typical applications include: Connecting IoT sensor devices in thermal power plants, petrochemical plants, transformer stations to help monitor and predictively maintain machinery and equipment. Automatic patrol robots to inspect machinery systems in factories. Augmented reality glasses to support operations, troubleshooting, remote training, etc.

For transportation and logistics, the 5G2B ecosystem brings many important solutions, creating a clear transformation. V2X (vehicle to everything) solutions apply latency for vehicles to interact with objects, vehicles, infrastructure or pedestrians.

AI camera systems, monitoring sensors, traffic lights and notice boards collect real-time traffic data transmitted via 5G connection to the intelligent traffic system, which will issue warnings and develop traffic safety plans for the traffic management unit.

Particularly for logistics, solutions in the 5G ecosystem contribute to optimizing costs, increasing management and operational efficiency thanks to a wide-area machine connection system that helps track and trace assets and goods, operate cranes and remote equipment, autonomous vehicles, etc.

In medicine, live surgeries on remote medical platforms via 5G with 4K quality help experts monitor, give opinions and guide surgeries. 5G combined with AI helps with early diagnosis and automatic diagnosis to provide timely solutions.

In the agricultural sector, 5G also continuously connects large-scale operating devices such as irrigation drones, monitoring devices, etc., with high precision in the irrigation process, analyzing data to adjust effective farm management modes.

Smart education with 5G applications combined with technological equipment in teaching and facilities management will create an effective and safe interactive learning environment.

5G is the core platform that comprehensively supports the innovation and development of smart cities in all areas (economy, government, transportation, environment, people, life). The application of advanced technologies IoT, AI, edge computing... on 5G infrastructure will have a positive impact on city construction and management, creating a more convenient, sustainable and safer living environment than ever before.

With near-zero latency and massive bandwidth, 5G has the potential to connect millions, even billions, of devices in smart cities where technology serves people.

Mastering 5G technology and owning the largest network infrastructure in Vietnam, Viettel is the pioneer in providing 5G services nationwide and is also the first unit to successfully deploy a 5G network dedicated to smart factories in Vietnam.

With the mission of "pioneering the key to creating a digital society", Viettel has prepared a diverse and comprehensive 5G2B ecosystem in all fields with a high level of reliability to help unleash digital potential, optimize management and automate processes, bring clear efficiency to organizations and businesses, opening up a more beautiful "new life".
