Huawei, a key driver of this shift, took center stage with a call to action: embrace the mobile AI era by unlocking the full promise of 5G Advanced (5G-A).<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
Opening the summit, David Wang, Executive Director of Huawei\u2019s Board, outlined three key ways mobile AI is redefining the telecom landscape:<\/p>\n
- \n
- AI Agents in Devices \u2013 Smartphones are evolving beyond apps to become hosts of AI agents that enhance everyday life and productivity.<\/li>\n
- AI + IoT Integration \u2013 The fusion of AI with the Internet of Things is creating new gateways to an intelligent world.<\/li>\n
- AI-Powered Networks \u2013 AI is now optimizing not just operations and maintenance, but also spectrum usage and energy efficiency.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
Wang urged the industry to work together on five levers critical to 5G-A development: large uplink bandwidth, a robust device ecosystem, multimodal intelligent services, all-scenario IoT capabilities, and flexible business models.<\/p>\n
Industry Use Cases: From Robots to Smart Logistics<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
The forum spotlighted real-world examples of how 5G-A and AI are revolutionizing industries. In manufacturing, the ultra-low latency and high bandwidth of 5G-A enable embodied AI\u2014robots and machines that sense, decide, and act in real time. Chang Lin, CEO of Leju Robot, emphasized that \u201cconnectivity must become intelligent, not just stable,\u201d allowing machines to make collaborative decisions instantly.<\/p>\n
In supply chain and logistics, 5G-A and AI-assisted route planning are improving delivery timelines and cutting operational costs. Smart logistics platforms powered by AI are streamlining everything from fleet management to warehouse automation.<\/p>\n
5G-A: More Than Connectivity, an Experience Platform<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
Huawei stressed that 5G-A must evolve from a mere connectivity pipeline into an experience platform\u2014supporting billions of real-time interactions between mobile AI agents and users.<\/p>\n
This shift demands a redesign of network infrastructure and operations. Huawei envisions deterministic networks that offer lossless, ultra-reliable, and adaptive connections across cloud, edge, and end-user devices.<\/p>\n
Monetizing Experience: The New Telecom Currency<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
Unlike earlier models focused on data usage, 5G-A\u2019s monetization strategy is centered on experience quality. Whether it\u2019s cloud gaming or immersive multi-view sports streaming, users are showing willingness to pay for latency-free, high-performance services with guaranteed quality.<\/p>\n
Li Peng, Huawei\u2019s Senior Vice President and President of ICT Sales & Service, closed the summit by reinforcing 5G-A\u2019s role as a catalyst for innovation:<\/p>\n
\u201c5G-A will empower carriers to deliver guaranteed, targeted experiences across all segments\u2014individuals, homes, enterprises, and mobile users. This isn\u2019t just about more traffic; it\u2019s about monetizing quality and value.\u201d<\/p>\n
Li also emphasized the need to establish AI-centric infrastructure standards to guide future development. Such standards, he said, are essential to building wide-area, intelligent 5G-A networks capable of elastic scheduling, deterministic access, and ultra-reliable connections.<\/p>\n
A Global Push Toward Intelligent Telecom<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
Huawei\u2019s ongoing collaboration with global carriers, industry leaders, and researchers reflects a broader industry shift. As commercial deployment of 5G-A accelerates in 2025, especially across China, the Middle East, and Asia-Pacific, the fusion of AI and telecom infrastructure is expected to unlock new revenue streams and reshape the digital landscape.<\/p>\n
