At the Mobile AI Summit hosted by Huawei during Mobile World Congress (MWC) Shanghai 2025, industry leaders, AI ecosystem partners, and scholars gathered to explore mobile AI developments. The summit revealed two key consensuses: enhancing 5G-A uplink experience is critical for mobile AI, and network-service synergy is essential for monetizing AI experiences.
Huawei announced the launch of the GSMA Foundry project titled Mobile Network for Thriving AI . The project marks a shift toward experience-based network construction for mobile AI.
Wen Ku, President of the China Communications Standards Association (CCSA), emphasized the integration of 5G-A and AI as a core direction for network evolution. He highlighted the importance of smart integration, standardization, and ecosystem collaboration.
Speakers from companies including Rokid, MiniMax, and Unitree Robotics discussed how AI service providers are leading with differentiated services. AI interactions are expanding from touchscreens to multimodal methods such as voice, video, and spatial computing. These advances, supported by 5G-A, enable real-time services and high-quality AI video calls requiring uplink speeds of at least 20 Mbps.
Huawei revealed that its GigaBand solution plays a crucial role in powering 5G-A networks to support new AI applications. Through air interface resource pooling and orchestration via Optsolver, GigaBand helps build elastic, SLA-assured networks. These support services like live streaming, AI assistants, and cloud gaming. Huawei reported a 2.28x increase in 5G throughput after GigaBand deployment in Hong Kong.
The solution also ensures a stable 4G user experience while enabling multi-band sharing.
Speakers, including IEEE Fellow Zhi-Quan Luo and representatives from Ookla, shared their strategies for embracing AI in network optimization and digital transformation. They agreed that uplink, latency, and stability are key metrics for mobile AI performance.
Huawei concluded that innovations like GigaBand and collaborative ecosystems will help position mobile AI as a new growth engine for the telecom sector, enabling a more intelligent digital lifestyle.
