China Unicom opened 4G commercial three major operators on the 18th, the competition is increasingly fierce

If nothing else, China Unicom will officially announce 4G commercialization on the 18th of this month, which means that the competition of the three major domestic operators will mainly focus on 4G. According to informed sources, China Unicom's 4G commercial use is mainly based on TD-LTE network, and 4G terminals will mainly be data-based, including Internet card, MiFi, and wireless gateway (CPE), which do not involve mobile phones.

At the China Unicom 2013 results conference at the end of last month, Lu Yimin, general manager of China Unicom, said, “After obtaining the TD-LTE license last year, China Unicom has actively deployed network development throughout the country and determined that it will be in 25 cities nationwide starting March 18. It is the first to launch 4G network services, and expects to increase to 300 by the end of the year, while the initial 4G network is TD-LTE."

Recently, news from Unicom terminal partners revealed that they have received a notice from China Unicom, inviting them to attend the Unicom conference held in Guangdong on March 18, and invited to show 4G terminals on site, although the name and content of the conference are unknown. However, according to the fact that March 18 is exactly the 4G commercial time of China Unicom, it can be judged that this may be the general meeting of China Unicom to release 4G commercial.

According to the above-mentioned insiders, the relevant data products have been completed by the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, covering all mainstream brands, up to dozens, and are expected to be available in the second quarter.

Recall that after China Mobile announced 4G commercial, China Unicom's attitude toward 4G has been relatively cold. Although it has also obtained the TD-LTE 4G license, it does not meet Unicom's development from the best route of technology evolution, which is one of the main reasons for its delay in declaring 4G commercial.

Because Unicom believes that China Unicom's upgrade network HSPA+ 42M network is enough to compete with China Mobile's 4G. According to the international definition, the 42M network is equivalent to 4G network in foreign countries.

It is understood that since last year, while China Mobile has been promoting 4G, Unicom has accelerated the upgrade of HSPA+42M network. At present, China Unicom has opened HSPA+ network in nearly 330 cities across the country, and plans to achieve 42M speed in all cities nationwide before the end of this year. As the earliest upgraded Guangzhou and other Pearl River Delta eight cities and cities Unicom 3G network took the lead in a comprehensive upgrade to 42M, creating a leading Pearl River Delta wireless high-speed urban agglomeration.

For the 4G tariffs that users care about, Chang Xiaobing, chairman of China Unicom, told the media during the two sessions that “data traffic tariffs are definitely on a downward trend. We encourage users to use more. The more they use, the cheaper they will be.” China Unicom will not Introducing unlimited traffic and monthly packages. "Because wireless resources are limited, the introduction of no-flow restrictions, monthly packages, will put the network under pressure."

As for how Unicom will deploy 4G in the future, Lu Yimin has said that for a long time, domestic 4G is difficult to achieve regional coverage, and Unicom's 42M “4G” network will provide effective supplements, thus forming a unique differentiated market advantage. . The true 4G layout will still be based on the FDD-LTE standard. It is expected that the government will issue an FDD-LTE license earlier this year. The "3G+4G" strong joint mode may become the "killer" exclusive to China Unicom in the 4G era.

It is reported that in accordance with the network upgrade plan announced by China Unicom Group, China Unicom will upgrade to 42M in the future. In the future, if Unicom gets the FDD-LTE license, the peak network speed can reach 150Mbps. The competition with the other two will be more intense.
