Analysis of LED Intelligent Lighting Application Status and Mainstream Technology Foundation

As an important part of smart homes , smart lighting has entered the Chinese market since the 1990s. Due to the initial positioning of high-end smart products, the situation is high and low.

However, the rapid development of the domestic economy, the increasingly mature lighting technology and some international brands such as Dynalite, Lutron, Wielang and other Chinese brands have rapidly promoted the development of this industry. In the 21st century, domestic intelligent lighting manufacturers and merchants have grown rapidly, and intelligent lighting has entered the application era.

At present, the intelligent lighting products on the market have formed a series and the variety is complete. The technical perfection is Philips, the Netherlands. The Philips hue series uses Zigbee wireless communication technology to provide basic LED lighting and make lighting more convenient for people's lives.

Users can remotely control the working status of the Hue light through a mobile terminal or a networked PC. For example, the user can adjust the switching time, color, brightness, atmosphere change, flicker frequency, etc. of the light according to the habit.

Hue also has the ability to perceive the environment and self-learning. It allows colorful lights to dance with your music. It gives you a warm glow when you enter the house. You are welcome to go home. It can use changing colors and breathing. Remind you that you should go to bed.

Philips first introduced the initial package in China, including three smart LED bulbs, a bridge and a free app installed on a mobile phone or tablet. A bridge can support up to 50 bulbs simultaneously. APP can run on both iOS and Android platforms.

The representative of domestic manufacturers is Shanghai Langmei. Shanghai Langmei and Jingdong technical team have cooperated, and the Rummei series of intelligent ceiling lamps developed by the company have realized intelligent lighting management through “JD+Smart Cloud” APP (Jingdong Weilian) with local WIFI and 2.4G wireless communication technology.

The development stage of intelligent lighting

The development of intelligent lighting has mainly gone through three stages:

(1) Energy-saving phase, which mainly completes the transition of incandescent lamps to LED lamps.

(2) The automatic control phase automatically realizes "appropriate brightness and color that meets the requirements at the right time" according to preset parameters (such as time, brightness, and color).

Wireless CPE

What is 5G CPE?

Definition of 5G CPE
CPE stands for Customer Premise Equipment. The so-called front end refers to the equipment in front of the customer's terminal equipment. When we use Wi-Fi, if the distance is far, or there are more rooms, it is easy to appear signal blind spots, resulting in mobile phones or ipads or computers can not receive Wi-Fi signals. The CPE can relay the Wi-Fi signal twice to extend the coverage of Wi-Fi.

What are the benefits of CPE?
Through the following comparison table, it is not difficult to understand the technical advantages of CPE products:

* Currently, the global 5G FWA service is mainly in the Sub-6GHz band, with only the United States and Italy supporting the millimeter wave band.

* 5G CPE integrates the low cost of Wi-Fi and the large bandwidth of 5G, combining the advantages of the two to form a strong complement to traditional fiber broadband.

The relationship between 5G, FWA and CPE
It can be said that FWA (Fixed Wireless Access) will be the most down-to-earth application of 5G technology. FWA business plays a key role in enabling "connecting the unconnected." FWA is a low-cost, easy-to-deploy flexible broadband solution. Compared with wired access technology, FWA has been an ideal choice for deploying broadband in many countries and regions because it does not need to obtain rights of way, dig trenches and bury cables, and drill holes through walls. The development of 5G technology is further promoting the development of FWA.

FWA services (including 4G and 5G) have reached 100 million users. FWA is no longer a niche service; The FWA industry as a whole has been supported by numerous suppliers. Why is that? In the 5G era, 5G CPE receives 5G signals from operator base stations and then converts them into Wi-Fi signals or wired signals to allow more local devices to get online. For operators, the initial user penetration rate of 5G is low, and the investment is difficult to realize quickly; The CPE business can use the idle network to increase revenue for operators, so major operators vigorously promote the development of 5G CPE.

FWA services can be used for both home (To C) and business (To B), and customers have different requirements for CPE devices when using FWA services in different application environments, resulting in consumer grade 5G CPE and industrial grade 5G CPE (similar to home routers and industrial routers).

In 2020, the global market size of 5G CPE will reach 3 million units, and it is expected that in the next five years, the market size of 5G CPE will maintain a compound growth rate of more than 100%, reaching 120 million units in 2025, with a market value of 60 billion yuan. As an important market for 5G CPE, China's 5G CPE market size will reach 1.5 million units in 2020 and is expected to reach 80 million units in 2025, with a market value of 27 billion yuan.

The difference between 5G CPE and other devices
CPE can support a large number of mobile terminals that access the Internet at the same time, and the device can be directly inserted with a SIM card to receive mobile signals. CPE can be widely used in rural areas, cities, hospitals, units, factories, communities and other wireless network access, can save the cost of laying wired networks.

A Router is a hardware device that connects two or more networks, acts as a gateway between networks, and is the main node device of the Internet. Routers use routes to determine the forwarding of data. If it is a home router, it does not support a SIM card slot, and can only receive signals by connecting to optical fiber or cable and then convert it into WI-FI to provide a certain number (several) of terminal devices to surf the Internet.

Industrial 5G CPE is equivalent to 5G industrial routers, and the technology of the two is not very different. On the one hand, the industrial 5G CPE converts 5G network signals into WiFi signals for transmission, and on the other hand, the data received by the WiFi network is converted into 5G network signals for uploading. In addition, industrial 5G CPE generally supports routing functions.

5G CPE trends
According to a research report, after evaluating the products of some mainstream 5G CPE suppliers, many institutions believe that the development of 5G CPE products will continue in two aspects: one is to support mmWave and Sub-6 GHz at the same time; Second, the design will pay attention to humanized operation and installation. The industry development trend will accelerate the demand for 5G in the medical, education and manufacturing industries due to the epidemic, and 5G FWA will promote global 5G CPE shipments.
