Ding Ting, a journalist from Xinhua News Agency, pointed out that 5G integrated applications have vigorously promoted the digital, networked, and intelligent transformation of the economy and society. With the deep coverage and integration development of 5G networks, the situation of Shanghai's 5G integrated application "sailing far" has preliminarily taken shape. The reporter learned that recently, Shanghai launched a joint action plan to promote 5G empowering intelligent shipping in the Yangtze River Delta. By utilizing 5G technology to empower intelligent shipping, Shanghai will achieve resource integration and sharing in ports, shipping, land transportation, logistics parks, and cargo warehousing. As an important component and bearing base of new infrastructure, 5G enabled intelligent shipping 5G network plays an important role in helping Digital transformation in the shipping field. The reporter learned that the joint action plan of "5G empowering intelligent shipping in the Yangtze River Delta" was jointly launched by relevant units such as the Office of the Shanghai Composite Port Management Committee, the Shanghai Communications Management Bureau, the Yangtze River Estuary Waterway Management Bureau of the Ministry of Transport, the East China Sea Navigation Support Center of the Ministry of Transport, Shanghai Port Group, Shanghai Telecom, Shanghai Mobile, Shanghai Unicom, Shanghai Tower, Oriental Cable, etc. In recent years, the information and communication industry in Shanghai has continued to deepen its efforts in the field of intelligent shipping. Wang Tianguang, Secretary of the Party Group and Director of the Shanghai Communications Management Bureau, introduced that in recent years, the Shanghai information and communication industry has strengthened its services, actively connected, and further strengthened communication and docking with relevant departments and enterprises in the shipping industry, effectively helping partners in the shipping industry to solve the difficulties, pain points, and focus issues in intelligent shipping and digitization work. At the same time, the Shanghai information and communication industry will mobilize the power of upstream and downstream industries, organize a group of experts in the field of intelligent transportation integration, understand and learn from good experiences and practices in the domestic and foreign industries, focus on technological progress and business development in the intelligent transportation industry, and fully empower the high-quality development of the Shanghai shipping industry with the latest technologies and capabilities of 5.5G synesthesia integration, 50GPON (passive optical fiber network) and other information and communication. In addition, the Shanghai information and communication industry should accelerate the creation of "model rooms" for 5G empowering intelligent shipping in segmented industries and different scenarios, accelerate the implementation, transformation, and large-scale promotion of benchmark projects, and accelerate the transformation from "model rooms" to intelligent shipping "commodity houses" that replicate the scale. This will continuously provide new impetus for the integration and innovative development of data and reality in the shipping industry. Xie Qunwei, Director of the Office of the Shanghai Composite Port Management Committee and Director of the Shanghai Maritime Safety Bureau, believes that 5G integrated application is an important engine for promoting the digital, networked, and intelligent transformation of the economy and society. The high-quality coverage of communication networks in coastal waters is the foundation for the upgrading of shipping informatization and 5G integrated application, and is also the cornerstone of the development of intelligent shipping related industries. The Shanghai Composite Port Management Committee Office will further promote the construction of the Yangtze River Delta regional port and waterway information platform and the interconnection of port and waterway information, promote the development of intelligent shipping in the Yangtze River Delta, and inject new driving force into the development of Shanghai International Shipping Center. Qin Ling, Deputy Director of the Lingang Communication Management Office of the Shanghai Communications Management Bureau, introduced that Shanghai has launched the "Sailing at Sea" action plan for 5G applications since March 2022, promoting deep coverage of 5G networks and focusing on promoting "5G+" applications in industries such as intelligent manufacturing, intelligent steel, and intelligent ports.
