Is 4G enough? Academician of the Chinese Academy of Engineering: Domestic 100/Gigabit broadband and 5G uplink are too slow

According to news on July 11, recently, Wu Hequan, an academician of the Chinese Academy of Engineering, publicly stated that the current domestic broadband, whether it is Gigabit or 100M, is very poor in uplink. Wu Hequan pointed out that among my country's fixed-line broadband users in the first quarter of this year, 100M access and 100M access accounted for 27.4% respectively. However, the actual download speed of Gigabit access users is no different from that of 100M access users. Large, Gigabit and Hundred Mbit uplinks are actually only about 30 Mbit/s, which is not conducive to computing applications. In terms of mobile broadband, my country basically uses the Sub6GHz frequency band. The design peak of 5G is Gbps level, and 5G-A is 10Gbps level. However, the actual measured downlink peak is hundreds of megabits, and the uplink is tens of megabits. Level, there is not much difference between uplink 5G and 4G. Now 5G users account for half of mobile users, but the monthly data traffic of 5G users is equivalent to that of 4G. "What does this mean? It means that our network capabilities are available, but the applications have not kept up. The broadband of the network can support video and AI scenarios. We need to develop applications that enhance user experience to reflect the value of the network." Wu Hequan said.
