BEIJING (Reuters) – Chinese company Huawei Technologies on Monday launched the world's first 5G communications vehicle for the automotive industry, signaling its growing ambition to become a key supplier in the autonomous driving technology sector.
Huawei said in a statement that the so-called MH5000 module is based on the Balong 5000 5G chip, launched in January. "Based on this chip, Huawei has developed the world's first 5G automotive module with high speed and quality," he said.
He launched the module at the Shanghai Autoshow, which started last week and will run until Thursday.
"As an important communications product for future smart car transport, this 5G car module will encourage the automotive industry to move into the 5G era," Huawei said.
He added that the module will facilitate the commercialization of 5G network technology for the automotive sector in the second half of this year.
Huawei has been testing intelligent smart car technology in Chinese cities such as Shanghai, Shenzhen and Wuxi for several years and has signed cooperation agreements with a large number of car manufacturers such as FAW, Dongfeng and Changan.
The company, which is also the largest telecommunications equipment manufacturer in the world, is striving to lead the global race for next-generation 5G networks, but is under increasing scrutiny from Washington, which says that his equipment could be used for espionage. Huawei has repeatedly denied these allegations.
