China Unicom Beijing Powers World's First Humanoid Robot Games with Smart 5G-A Network
BEIJING, CHINA - Media OutReach Newswire - 18 August 2025 - At the 2025 World Humanoid Robot Games which just kicked off, China Unicom Beijing provides full 5G-A network coverage outside and inside the event venue — Beijing National Speed Skating Oval. This cutting-edge network, characterized by its high uplink capacity, reliability, and security, is enabling over 500 robots from nearly 280 teams worldwide to compete at their best across athletic, performance, industrial, and healthcare contests. It is also significantly enhancing the experience for tens of thousands of spectators. Such robust 5G-A networks will transform society by propelling humanoid robots beyond competitions and into full-scale commercialization. The AI industry is developing rapidly. Multimodal and cross-device interactions are reshaping personal experiences, IoT connections are growing exponentially, and AI is now woven into the fabric of core production processes, completely redefining workflows. These embodied AI robots are a demanding AI application, requiring a specialized network that allows them to perceive their surroundings, make instant decisions, pinpoint their location precisely, and coordinate with other robots. With the games already in play, China Unicom Beijing is delivering reliable, extensive, and high-uplink connectivity for both robots and spectators outside and inside the arena. Outside, a 5G-A 3D network coordinating 1:1 high and mid bands boosts peak uplink and downlink user-perceived rates to 4 Gbps and 11.2 Gbps, respectively. Inside, LampSite offers 300 MHz bandwidth, achieving a peak network speed of 2.4 Gbps. "Our 5G-A networks currently serve users, and we're upgrading them to support embodied AI as well," said Qin Yang, Deputy General Manager of China Unicom Beijing. "Our 5G-A network for this event reflects this progress. It dedicates a channel for spectators and a dynamically scalable one for robots, realizing seamless connectivity for both spectators and robots even during peak usage. In the robot sector, 5G-A will also be key to enabling low-latency remote control." Samuel Chen, Vice President of Marketing for Huawei's Wireless Network Product Line, said, "At the humanoid robot games, the network must support many robots, spectators, and live media streams. It needs to provide high uplink capacity, low latency, high reliability, and wide coverage." Inside the venue, a 5G-A digital indoor system has been developed utilizing 300 MHz ultra-high-bandwidth spectrum. It delivers an uplink speed above 100 Mbps, allowing multiple 4K machine vision streams to be uploaded without frame loss. It also ensures air interface latency remains below 20 ms, so robots can respond to commands instantly. Outside the venue, a 5G-A 3D network coordinates 1:1 high and low bands to achieve downlink and uplink speeds of 10 Gbps and 4 Gbps, respectively. With this fast connectivity, 8K panoramic cameras merge footage live, media like CCTV upload UHD shallow-compressed signals in seconds, and crowds live stream and share videos without lag. As the world's first international sports event for humanoid robots, the games set the stage for a groundbreaking fusion of technology and athletics, signaling AI's expansion into sports at scale. As the event's exclusive global communications partner, China Unicom is dedicated to ensuring millisecond-level network response and zero downtime with its 5G-A, AI, and all-optical network expertise through collaboration with partners. Beyond the event, China Unicom aims to inject strong momentum into the robotics industry. Hashtag: #Huawei The issuer is solely responsible for the content of this announcement. Huawei

UAE: du achieves 5G-Advanced milestone; tech now on live network
UAE - du, a leading telecom and digital services provider, has achieved a major breakthrough with the successful deployment of 5G-Advanced (5G-A) technology on its live network — marking du as the region's first operator and the UAE as the first country to roll out this next-generation capability, in collaboration with Huawei. The launch reflects du's continued commitment to pioneering cutting-edge innovations that enhance customer experience and support national digital ambitions, the company said. The concept of the 64T64R Dual Band AAU in 3.7 GHz (N78) and 2.6 GHz (N41) spectrum was first envisioned and initiated by du as part of its strategic roadmap to deliver enhanced capacity, improved coverage, and spectrum efficiency for its customers. Driven by du's vision, the world's first Dual Band Active Antenna unit was conceived and successfully deployed in du's live network — delivering breakthrough performance for our customers and setting a new global benchmark in mobile innovation. This advanced solution consolidates hardware, enhances spectrum efficiency, and improves network performance—all while significantly reducing power consumption and carbon footprint, it said. Saleem AlBlooshi, Chief Technology Officer at du, said: '5G-Advanced is a monumental leap forward for du and the UAE's telecom sector. This milestone reflects our ongoing efforts to deliver world-class connectivity and support the nation's vision to be a global technology leader. It also reaffirms our focus on building a green, sustainable network for the future.' Felix Liu, Chief of UAE Carrier Business at Huawei, said: 'Huawei is privileged to be part of 5G-Advanced network construction together with du. We have been continuously engaged with our customers to understand network needs and provide tailored solutions which can bring business success. Huawei's 5G Dual Band AAU is another flagship solution which offers outclass network performance and customer experience and is in line with UAEs sustainability goals.' The newly launched 5G-Advanced network brings tangible benefits to customers and businesses alike. Users can expect ultra-fast data speeds for high-bandwidth services like 8K video streaming and real-time conferencing, stronger coverage even in remote areas, and ultra-low latency ideal for critical applications such as autonomous vehicles and smart city infrastructure. Enterprise customers will benefit from the network's ability to support massive IoT deployments and large-scale digital services. Importantly, the new dual-band radio design promotes energy efficiency, contributing to du's broader net-zero sustainability goals. This achievement further strengthens du's leadership in 5G, especially by delivering a peak data rate of ~ 5.4Gbps and average data rate improvements of up to ~33%, du said. The solution also demonstrated key performance improvements, including increased peak data rates, stronger connectivity at the cell edge, and better uplink speeds. Enabled by Massive MIMO and enhanced spectrum aggregation, the technology is setting new benchmarks for mobile performance in the UAE. du's 5G-Advanced network is also a foundation for future innovation, integrating intelligent automation and enabling ultra-reliable low-latency communication (URLLC) and massive machine-type communication (mMTC). These capabilities open doors to smarter cities, connected industries, and a fully digitized society, it said.
