Huawei's Smart Airport Solutions Drive Safety, Efficiency, and Services to Optimize the Travel Experience
Huawei's booth at the Passenger Terminal EXPO 2018 features a full range of airport scenarios, including terminal building safety and security, apron operations, and passenger experience. The scenarios highlight the capabilities of Huawei's Smart Airport ICT solutions throughout the airport from flight flow to passenger flow.
Airport Operational Safety: Huawei Smart Airport Visualized Safety Solution provides 4K intelligent cameras connected through a broadband video backhaul using agile Passive Optical Networks (PONs). The backend video cloud platform provides the scalability to host video surveillance images and videos as well as intelligent video analytics applications developed by Huawei's partners. By using intelligent panoramic video surveillance technology, the solution enables the visualized safety management of airfields, terminal buildings, and public areas. Cameras with facial recognition technology help ensure the operational safety of terminal buildings and allow passengers to be identified throughout the terminal using a unique biometric token. The solution delivers smooth and simplified processes to greatly enhance the overall safety of the airport and the passenger experience.
Airport Operational Efficiency: Huawei Smart Airport Visualized Operations Solution features an eLTE wireless network for transmission of voice, video and data including IoT-based narrowband data. Based on Huawei's Integrated Communications Platform (ICP), the solution provides unified access to multiple communications such as eLTE broadband communication, videoconferencing and IP telephony. This improves operational efficiency and transforms ground handling services by allowing real-time assignment and reporting of tasks.
Huawei's airport eLTE solution has been deployed by China's Chongqing Jiangbei International Airport to enable digital ground handling services, which has significantly enhanced the productivity of its ground staff. Additionally, Huawei, with partners Crystone and Oviphone, provides an airport cloud platform featuring IoT and Big Data analytics. The platform assists airport personnel in managing apron navigational lighting, locating and tracking powered and non-powered vehicles, and monitoring the airport terminal environment, which has improved the efficiency of the airport's asset management.
Ultimate Service Experience: Huawei, in collaboration with 7G and other partners, provides reliable and agile airport campus networks. Leveraging Location-Based Services (LBS) over Wi-Fi, video surveillance and Big Data analytics, Huawei optimizes the passenger experience by enabling self-service, indoor navigation, and commercial promotion in terminal buildings for passengers.
Huawei is committed to becoming the preferred digital transformation partner of aviation industry customers. With 20 years of experience in the civil aviation industry, Huawei has provided ICT products, solutions, and services for more than 50 airports, airlines, and air traffic control authorities, including more than 15 global airports with more than 30 million annual passengers. For example, Huawei and Dubai Airport recently completed the construction of the world's first Tier III certified Modular Data Center Complex (MDCC) at Dubai International Airport, supporting the airport's rapid growth and complex operations.
