Introduction to Chengdu Hi-tech Zone

Since 2007, Chengdu Hi-tech Zone, as the core agglomeration for the communications industry in Chengdu, has focused on cultivating and building the communications industry as one of its six industrial clusters. By far, a relatively complete communications industry chain has taken shape in Chengdu Hi-tech Zone, and has been developed to be a major base for key communications technologies, equipment R&D and the R&D and production of optical communications products. Chengdu Hi-tech Zone is advantageous in communications R&D. Five communications companies, i.e., Ericsson, Nokia, Siemens, Alcatel Lucent, and HUAWEI, have set up their R&D centers here, with domestically leading R&D capabilities in terms of 3G\4G, NGN, optical communications products, switches and routers software, intelligent packet switching core network subsystem, system and platform software, terminal software, IMS platform, GSM, 3G base station products, cell phone integration, mobile WAP browsing gateway, etc.

Chengdu is the fourth largest communications technology and equipment R&D center, and the communications hub of Southwest China designated by the State Council. By October 2010, there were more than 110 communications industry-related enterprises, with over 45,000 employees. In 2009, the annual output value reached RMB 39.84 billion, with a year-on-year growth of 21.1 %.It is estimated that by 2012, revenue from main operations (including those from network and service operation) will have reached RMB 65 billion, including RMB 22 billion from network and service operation and RMB 43 billion from network and communications equipment (including software).

News Link: Introduction to 4G

4G is the abbreviation of the fourth generation of mobile communication and relevant technologies. It stands for technological products which incorporate 3G and WLAN to transfer high-quality video images of almost the same quality as that of HD television.

Network architecture and key technologies of 4G system: The network architecture can be divided to three layers: physical network, middle environment and application network. The key technologies of the fourth-generation mobile communication system includes: channel transmission; high-speed access technology with strong anti-jamming; modulation and information transmission technologies; smart adaptive array antennas with high performance, small size and low cost; radio interface and optical interface with high capacity and low cost; system management resources; software radio, network structures and protocols, etc.

4G communication has the advantages of faster communication speed, wider network frequency spectrum, flexible communication methods, higher intelligence and performance, better compatibility, more value-added services, more high-quality multimedia communications, higher efficiency of frequency availability, cheaper communications costs, etc.
