The surging news reporter learned from Yangmei Coal Group, a coal enterprise in Shanxi Province, that recently, the opening and optimization of the 5G network of the company’s Xinyuan company has been completed and has been running steadily for a week, marking the first 5G in the country. The special network for underground coal mines was successfully constructed. This is also another achievement of 5G underground mining after the company launched the country’s first underground 5G test base station in November last year and obtained the explosion-proof certification of wireless transmission equipment in April this year.

In September last year, Shanxi Province released 15 major initiatives for the comprehensive reform of the energy revolution. It is mentioned in the policy interpretation that it is necessary to accelerate the intelligent transformation of coal mines, introduce 5G technology into the construction of intelligent coal mines, and promote the development of coal mining from mechanization, automation, and digitization to intelligentization, and create a new model of unmanned (minor) coal mining. A batch of smart mines and smart fully mechanized mining face.

In the same month, Yangmei Group signed a cooperation agreement with China Mobile and Huawei in Taiyuan, Shanxi, and the three parties joined hands to advance the 5G mining process. During the construction process, technicians overcome the difficulties of different technical requirements for 5G technology mine industrial applications and civil scenarios, complex underground conditions, and high equipment explosion-proof requirements, and recently built the country’s first 5G coal mine special network.

After the completion of the 5G coal mine dedicated network, the Yangyuan Coal Group Xinyuan Company has achieved integrated 5G network coverage in the underground park, underground mechanical and electrical chamber, fully mechanized mining and tunneling face , The upload rate is above 800Mbps, and the transmission delay is less than 20ms, which can fully meet the network requirements of remote ultra-low latency control, ultra-high-definition video simultaneous transmission, and industrial control scenarios. “5G + intelligent inspection” and other 5G mine applications have laid the foundation.

Yu Beijian, deputy general manager of Yangmei Coal Group, said that after 5G technology goes downhole, various safety production data and environmental videos downhole can be obtained accurately, comprehensively and clearly Multiple applications such as high-definition audio and video calls, rapid transmission of various data, and remote intelligent control of equipment have laid the foundation for reducing the number of people in the mine and improving efficiency and safe production. In the follow-up, Yangmei Group will further enrich 5G application scenarios, realize automatic monitoring and real-time interconnection of underground “people, machines, objects, and rings”, and create a “5G + smart mine”.

At present, many coal companies are working on 5G coal mine construction. In addition to Yangmei Group, Kailuan Group and China Telecom signed a strategic cooperation framework agreement for 5G technology application, Yankuang Group signed a strategic agreement with Shandong Unicom and ZTE, and Shanxi Coking Coal Group signed a 5G special agreement with Unicom (Shanxi) Industrial Internet Corporation. Internet lease agreement.
