Abstract

Looking back to the history of mobile communications, the first generation mobile communications standards, which were developed under the leadership of the US government and enterprises, brought enormous political, military, and economic benefits to the United States. Since then, development and standardization of mobile communications technology has become a competition of national power. Therefore, every country has been engaged in 5G development and deployment as soon as the technology emerged. After global standardization body ITU announced the timeline for 5G standardization, the IMT-2020 (5G) Promotion Group formed by the Chinese government has attempted to demonstrate China's communications technology capabilities and commitment with the declaration that they will work with domestic and foreign companies on 5G standardization.
