Global technology company OPPO is spearheading the development of 5G-Advanced (5G-A) technology, paving the way for future 6G networks. While the brand has been focused on the newer technological advancements in their recent devices, they are still an active contributor to 3GPP (The 3rd Generation Partnership Project)–having made significant strides in key areas of 5G-A.
The company’s innovations include the “Zero-Power Tag” prototype for Ambient IoT, which won TIME’s Best Inventions 2023 award. OPPO is also integrating AI with communication systems, enhancing network adaptability and efficiency.
In device-to-device communication, OPPO has advanced sidelink evolution, crucial for scenarios with limited network coverage. The company has also pioneered 3Tx uplink transmission technology, improving upload speeds and reliability for data-intensive applications.
OPPO’s commitment to 5G-A research is evident in its over 12,000 technical documents submitted to 3GPP. As of March 31, 2024, the company has deployed 5G/5G-A communication standard patents in over 40 countries and regions, with more than 3,300 5G standard patent families declared to ETSI.
OPPO’s vision for 6G emphasizes the integration of AI and communications, the creation of a ‘Minimized Kernel’ system design, and the development of robust security measures. By investing in 6G research and actively participating in its standardization process, OPPO is playing a crucial role in shaping the future of wireless technology, aiming to deliver more intelligent, convenient, and secure communication experiences for users worldwide.
