Huawei confident of 5G role in Vietnam

[StarCraft_ZT]

Huawei Technologies says it has a good chance to be a supplier of 5G equipment to Vietnamese service providers. Fine Fan, CEO of Huawei Vietnam, said that the Chinese company is in talks with Vietnamese partners on conducting 5G trials later this year. “We are confident of expanding in Vietnam,” Fan said, adding that Vietnamese Minister of Information and Communications Nguyen Manh Hung “is open to every provider.”

Fan said that Huawei cannot be beaten on quality or cost in Vietnam. “Huawei will provide better technology and solutions, along with financial support to local operators to deploy 5G.”

Huawei’s expression of confidence comes as major mobile carriers in Vietnam have previously announced plans to develop 5G networks using equipment from other suppliers, including Ericsson, Nokia and Samsung Electronics.

Viettel, the country’s largest telecommunications company, became the first firm to receive permission to trial 5G services last month.

The company has earmarked $40 million for the development of its own 5G chipset, but was also considering using technology from Ericsson and Nokia, its president and CEO Le Dang Dung said.

Last November, Minister Hung said at a conference that Vietnam should test 5G in 2019 and ensure nationwide coverage by 2020.

“Vietnam should be one of the first to launch the network, at least in Hanoi and HCMC,” Hung said. The country had been one of the last in Southeast Asia to roll out 4G services.

Huawei has been the largest provider of 2G and 3G network equipment in Vietnam, though the company lost its lead when 4G arrived, CEO Fan said.

Vietnam’s telecom market was estimated at more than $16 billion in 2016, with the three state-owned providers, Viettel, MobiFone, and VNPT, accounting for 95 percent of the market.

5G is said to offer speeds 100 times faster than 4G, primarily used for smartphones and other similar devices. 5G is also expected to support new applications like remote medical procedures and autonomous driving.

Huawei's Vietnam chief says the company has received assurances from the country's communications minister that Vietnam remains open to Huawei's 5G technology. This comes on the heels of European countries announcing they are reconsidering telecommunications partnerships with Huawei due to information security concerns.

Good for Vietnamese friends, congratulations!!

Vietnam to begin testing 5G networks next year
New gen communications to boost high-tech manufacturing

HO CHI MINH CITY -- Vietnam will start testing a fifth-generation mobile network next year, hoping to put itself at the forefront of the so-called fourth industrial revolution -- the integration of automation and high-speed data communications in manufacturing.

Starting from the capital, Hanoi, and the southern commercial hub of Ho Chi Minh City, the communist country aims to upgrade its mobile network nationwide by 2020.

"Vietnam should be among the first nations to launch 5G services in order to move up in global telecom rankings," Nguyen Manh Hung, the country's new minister of information and communications, said at a conference this week.


The latest iteration of high-speed wireless technology is designed to offer communication with a delay or "latency" of 1 millisecond or less to achieve real-time feedback. Hanoi wants to adopt the technology quickly to keep pace with other countries, Hung said.

Four telecom companies -- Vietnamobile, a joint venture of Hanoi Telecom and Hongkong based Hutchison Asia Telecommunications, and three state-owned entities, Viettel, Vietnam Posts and Telecommunications Group, MobiFone and Vietnamobile -- are expected to receive 5G testing licenses in January.

Viettel wants to test 5G next year and launch commercially in 2020, said Phung Van Cuong, the company's deputy general director.

VNPT has teamed up with Nokia to develop telecommunications technology, including 5G.

MobiFone, which has lagged its competitors in deploying 4G, earlier this year signed an agreement with Samsung Electronics to boost engineering and commercial cooperation on 4G and 5G networks.

Last July, Ericsson, the largest supplier of mobile broadband technology in the country, which has been upgrading its network in Vietnam from 2G to 3G to 4G, held the first 5G demonstration in the country, in conjunction with Vietnam Authority of Radio Frequency Management.

Vietnam was ranked among the top 20 countries worldwide in terms of mobile broadband subscribers by the International Telecommunication Union, in 1990, three years after it rolled out 2G, according to Hung. But it fell to 115th out of 193 countries by 2017, as it fell far behind other countries in deploying 3G and 4G services. Vietnam finally moved forward with 3G and 4G, but it is about a decade behind with these standards, which are commonplace elsewhere.

The government considers the telecom industry sensitive, and licensing is complicated. That has slowed its development. Hung, who is the former chairman and general director of the military-backed Viettel, hopes to simplify the approval process to boost Vietnam's information technology sector, particularly for products made domestically.

For 2G and 3G, Vietnam relied exclusively on imported equipment, but it has begun producing 4G devices locally, led by Viettel. Hung hinted at measures to help domestic technology companies develop equipment. He has set an ambitious target of turning Vietnam into a major exporter of 5G gear.

Vietnam's telecom market was estimated at more than $16 billion in 2016, with three state-owned providers accounting for 95% of the market. Viettel had the largest share that year with 46.7%, followed by Mobifone with 26.1% and VNTP with 22.2%.

While MobiFone and VNPT are on the list of state-owned companies slated for privatization by 2020, Viettel is to remain in government hands.

Huawei's going to be just fine. The question is can Vietnam afford 5G?

PLA Vietnam and Huawei deploy lampsite sharing multi-operator solution for indoor coverage

Posted by ZENOBIA HEGDEMAY 21, 2018


Huawei and PLA jointly announced the successful deployment of the first multi-operator indoor digital system in Vietnam based on LampSite Sharing, an indoor digital coverage solution that features multi-operator access.


This solution was implemented in Vincom Centre in Hanoi for three mobile network operators. The indoor system provides an enhanced MBB experience to users of the three operators better than legacy distributed antenna systems (DAS), proving to be a successful option to enhance 4G indoor mobile coverage in Vietnam.

PLA is the largest tower company in Vietnam, with over 4 million square meters of in-building solution for renting to network operators. Vincom Centre is one of the famous shopping malls in Hanoi where VIP users make a high proportion of the entire customer base.

With a growing indoor mobile broadband demand and increasingly popular innovative apps such as new retail, AI shopping, and indoor high-precision navigation, a seamless and high-speed indoor coverage becomes highly important. A better connected indoor life is also essential to a smart, safe city. Therefore, operators and neutral hosts are urgently deploying innovative solutions.

LampSite Sharing suits various scenarios. It is easy to deploy and manage, highlights high capacity, and supports multi-band multi-operator indoor sharing. Such powerful features add extra flexibility in facilitating emerging business models for both neutral hosts and operators.

The solution has a lower Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) than legacy DAS networks and allows for a smooth evolution to 5G networks, which have been long requested by neutral hosts. Therefore, LampSite Sharing enables operators and neutral hosts to move toward the era of indoor digital coverage with multi-operator small cell technology.

It took two weeks for PLA to swap traditional DAS infrastructure with LampSite Sharing solution in Vincom Centre. The swap allowed the new indoor network to be shared among the three operators across multiple bands and carriers. Huawei’s innovative MIMO feature was combined in this deployment to enable a download speed nearly twice that of traditional DAS.

Unlike traditional DAS, LampSite Sharing supports network management on Huawei’s powerful OSS platform, U2000, providing real-time end-to-end management and making all components visible across the network during network maintenance.

Mr. Peng Honghua, president of Huawei Small Cell Product Line, said: “It’s a tremendous pleasure to help PLA deploy the innovative LampSite Sharing solution. We look forward to helping operators and neutral hosts address indoor coverage issues quickly and efficiently, as we are always focusing on bringing a premium indoor MBB experience to users.”

Still not enough to save Hwei. Not mentioning bcs VN is still poor, so we need advance tech to grow fast.

When VN is rich enough, then we will dump Hwei, just like after defeated US in 1975, we dumped CN and expand in our own way ( take control of Laos-Cam and 60-65% of SCS ( east VN sea), a CN core interest)

Let me remind u that , before 1975 VN only control half of Laos, and had zero % in Camb and SCS( east VN sea). After 1979, Camb falled into VN's hand and VN took abt 70% SCS ( east VN sea). CN begged for help from daddy US-Jap and took back abt 5% after 1988.

@Viet You fatherland will use Huawei 5G technology, what's your opinion?

As far as I know Vietnam companies don’t use Huawei and I think they will not use it in the future either. Huawei may provide uncritical passive components as cables. Best scenario: Huawei provides technology and expertise enabling Vietnam to make components. we must have the guaranty that our equipment are free of spyware and propaganda.

You fatherland choose, use it or not. We will not force you by missiles, market will decide it. After 5G, the 6G will comes soon. One step slows, evey step will hardly follow up.

When CN is under the risk of collapse, they will not send bad things to VN.

just like before 1975, Mao sent all good weapons to VN and thats weapons r so effective in 1979 war, thousands PLA killed by Cnese riffles and grenades sent to VN before 1975.
