At Huawei Decoding China 2026, Fang Xiang, Corporate Vice President and President of Wireless Network Solution of Huawei, unveiled a series of innovation breakthroughs to pioneer new communications networks. The breakthroughs mark major leaps in root technologies focused on ubiquitous experience, simplified and green networks, and superior spectral efficiency. These innovations aim to address challenges in coverage, energy consumption, and capacity, ultimately driving the development of new communications networks.

The innovation breakthroughs include RetinaMIMO, new materials, and the OSCAR solution, among other root technologies. RetinaMIMO is a pioneering technology designed to solve the challenge of concurrent ultra-high bandwidth and ubiquitous coverage. It features the industry's first Retina scanning system that allows RF link topologies to be reconstructed to eliminate coverage collapse in the vertical direction. This technology has enabled Huawei to launch the world's first commercial U6 GHz device, VitaAAU.

VitaAAU has seen commercial adoption in the UAE and other markets, with peak downlink speeds exceeding 10 Gbps, making ubiquitous premium experience a reality. Compared with similar products with 1024 AEs, VitaAAU widens coverage by about 30%, enabling U6 GHz to match C-band in both horizontal and vertical directions. This enables operators to deliver U6 GHz coverage for new communications networks on their C-band sites, minimizing overall TCO.

Huawei's pioneering EP power amplifier (PA) architecture capitalizes on new materials and technologies to solve the problem of energy efficiency decline on higher frequency bands, maximizing energy conversion efficiency. The industry's first-ever multimode dielectric filters allow antennas to have small dimensions and low power consumption on multi-channel networks with high frequency bands. These innovations enable Huawei's GigaGreen Plus series products to achieve significant reductions in dimensions, weight, and power consumption.

The OSCAR solution introduces the time scaling of the Tau (τ) law to base stations for the first time to realize optimal dynamic resource scheduling across all domains. With low-latency bus and high-speed interconnect technology, a high-speed architecture is built to enable the real-time exchange of massive data. Thanks to software and hardware synergy, new UBBPi series products improve average user experience by 1.3 times while reducing power consumption by approximately 40%.

Autonomous networks have emerged as an inevitable choice to deal with the growing AI services and increasing network complexity. RANSpirit, another industry first from Huawei, implements single-domain network autonomy based on the telecom foundation model and digital twins. To date, RANSpirit is serving more than 1.2 million cells across 25 networks around the world, providing assistance to more than 2,000 engineers.

Huawei promotes A2A-T standards and drives commercial open-source OpenAN through extensive partnerships to build an open telecom agent ecosystem. The company adapts to the TM Forum, building a cross-agent foundation on the A2A-T standard and framework agreed upon by the industry. Huawei also jointly promotes neutral open-source communities and donates open-source agent components to the Linux Foundation, driving global collaboration and innovation.
