on June 25, Huawei obtained China's first 5g terminal network access license. ZTE announced that it has won 25 5g commercial contracts in the world. New news has also been heard about the 5g layout of oppo, Xiaomi and Samsung
from June 26 to 28, the "2019 world mobile conference · Shanghai" (hereinafter referred to as MWC Shanghai) with the theme of "Zhilian all things" was held in Shanghai New International Expo Center, focusing on demonstrating the cutting-edge application of 5g technology in the world
as an instry that can generate a lot of data, the development of logistics has been closely linked with science and technology. However, although 5g has officially entered the commercial stage, only part of the head logistics enterprises are actively in the layout, and most logistics enterprises still hold a wait-and-see attitude. The reason is that many enterprises still have doubts: what is 5g? What are the characteristics of 5g? How will 5g change the logistics instry
after reading this article, I believe you will have a clearer understanding of the above issues< First, what is 5g?
1. Definition of 5g:
in short, 5g is the fifth generation mobile communication network, which is hundreds of times faster than 4G. Applied to life, people's most intuitive feeling is: in 5g environment, a high-definition movie can be downloaded in a few seconds
however, the significance of 5g is far more than that. Just as the Internet has been constantly refreshing people's way of life, the application of 5g will once again bring mankind into the next intelligent era
2G and 5g have three characteristics:
5g has many advantages over the current communication network, among which three characteristics have the greatest impact on the future life scene: ultra-low delay, high-speed bandwidth and massive access<
① ultra low delay characteristic
ultra low delay characteristic of data transmission refers to the extremely short response time to instructions. For example, the background is that employees report their work to their superiors:
high time delay: the superiors give instructions in 12 hours
low time delay: the superiors give instructions in 12 seconds
this feature can be used in real-time and reliable communication scenarios (urllc), and its main business includes automatic driving, smart grid, remote control, remote control, remote control, etc Internet (tactile trigger), real-time games and manufacturing process automation
among them, automatic driving and smart grid technology have the most direct impact on the logistics instry
② high speed bandwidth characteristic
the high speed bandwidth characteristic of data transmission means that more data information can be transmitted at high speed at one time. For example, the background is that employees report their work to their superiors. There are 10 reports:
low bandwidth: only one report at a time, and superiors can only reply to one report at a time
high bandwidth: 10 reports at a time, and superiors can reply to 10 reports at a time
this feature can be applied in daily life to realize high-energy communication broadband scenario (embB), Its main business includes ultra high definition video, virtual reality, augmented reality, computer vision and other scenes with high bandwidth requirements
among them, augmented reality and computer vision technology have the most direct impact on the logistics instry
③ massive access characteristic
massive access characteristic of data refers to the information that can be collected and processed by multiple terminals. Examples to help you understand:
access status: the superior can understand and guide the work of two people at the same time
mass access: the superior can understand and guide the work of 200 people at the same time
(the proportion is random examples, no reference)
this feature is applied in life, and can realize mass machine communication scenario (mmtc), 5g's powerful compatibility makes it possible to realize the Internet of things (IOT), which has been proposed for many years
for example, the smart city will completely become a reality, and each element of the whole city can timely and effectively upload data to the control center for processing. Smart home, smart factory and smart logistics all belong to this scenario
the connection between the Internet of things and the new generation of logistics permeates all aspects of logistics, and it is the key technology that 5g brings innovation to logistics<
analysis of the new generation of logistics application scenarios brought by 2G and 5g
as a mobile communication network technology, 5g has not a direct impact on the logistics instry, but indirectly promotes the development of the logistics instry by enabling various technologies< According to different application fields and purposes in logistics instry, 5g enabling scenarios can be roughly divided into four categories: Transportation enabling, warehousing enabling, human enabling and data enabling
1. Transportation enabling
transportation enabling refers to the use of 5g supported technology in transportation, so as to liberate manpower and realize automatic transportation
this kind of application scenario is fully automated logistics transportation, which requires accurate and timely command operation. On the premise of real-time sharing of data and information between vehicles, it can accurately control vehicles for transportation through intelligent tracking and other technologies
at present, China's leading enterprises in the field of automatic driving are: network and roadstar.ai company, etc
2. Warehousing enabling
warehousing enabling refers to the use of 5g supported technology in warehousing, with the purpose of optimizing energy allocation and improving efficiency
there are three kinds of application scenarios: smart grid, smart warehouse and instrial vision system
① smart grid
smart grid is the energy guarantee for the normal operation of smart warehouse
the power grid has always been controlled by the state, so the State Grid needs to take the lead in deploying 5g in order to realize the wide use of the new generation of logistics enterprises<
② intelligent warehousing
the scenarios of intelligent warehousing are as follows:
optimization of warehouse location
intelligent sorting
improving the performance of goods transportation in the warehousing environment
at present, the leading enterprises in China in the field of intelligent warehousing are e-commerce enterprises such as Ali, Jingdong, Suning, vipshop and logistics enterprises such as Yuantong, Shentong and Shunfeng
③ instrial vision system
replaces human vision, matches high-speed assembly line, and greatly improves logistics automation
at present, China's leading enterprises in the field of computer vision include Shangtang technology, Tencent, Netease cloud, etc
3. Human empowerment
human empowerment refers to the use of 5g supported technology on people for the purpose of assisting people's work
this kind of application scenarios include augmented reality technology (AR) and instrial logistics monitoring
① augmented reality (AR)
by projecting virtual information to the real world and overlapping each other, a new scene of diversified information is formed
the application of AR technology in logistics instry can rece the cost of personnel training. In Alibaba's rookie ar intelligent logistics system, staff can see the orders provided by the system through ar glasses, follow the optimal route, and complete form scanning and express delivery
at present, China's leading enterprises in the field of augmented reality technology include Shangtang technology, liangfengtai, 0glass, etc<
② Instrial Logistics Monitoring
logistics monitoring refers to the whole process tracking of goods in the storage and transportation of goods. 5g will make the core link of logistics monitoring more efficient and intelligent
at present, China's leading enterprises in the monitoring instry include Hikvision, Dahua, Bosch group, UTV technology, Infineon, etc
4. Data enabling
data enabling is to collect, process and protect data through 5g supported technology
there are two application scenarios: logistics data computing platform (data collection and processing) and blockchain Technology (data protection)
① logistics data computing platform
5g can broaden the collection channels of logistics data, speed up the processing speed of logistics data, so as to improve the service quality and credibility of the whole logistics instry
at present, China's leading enterprises in the field of data computing include: Ming Lue technology, getui, Bairong financial services, talkingdate, etc
② blockchain technology
logistics needs to analyze the big data involving user information, logistics big data and post station big data, and study the technology of secure storage and data traceability. This process can maintain the safe transmission of logistics information with the help of blockchain technology
blockchain technology is considered to be an important solution for the new generation of logistics data and user privacy protection
at present, China's leading enterprises in the field of blockchain technology include Yunxiang, ALSHAN finance, netxin technology, etc
the daily delivery volume of China's express delivery has already exceeded 100 million pieces, and it is still increasing. It is difficult for people's work efficiency to meet the growing demand for express delivery. Through 5g's logistics transportation, warehousing, manpower and data empowerment, the efficiency of all aspects of logistics can be comprehensively improved, and the intelligent logistics is the general trend
in the era of rapid technological change, it is both an opportunity and a challenge. I hope that the logistics enterprises can actively explore, keep up with the times, and become the leading edge of the instry.

I think the development prospect of blockchain is based on the characteristics of blockchain technology. Blockchain technology mainly has the following characteristics: machine trust, decentralization, data can not be deleted or modified, and can only be added, which ensures the traceability of history. At the same time, the cost of doing evil will be very high, because its evil behavior will be recorded forever
the application of blockchain in the future can be divided into three aspects:
first, the application of machine trust on the Internet. People are fickle. They were & lt; My mother is my mother; In fact, it is a problem that blockchain can solve. All our certificates, including birth certificate and house property certificate, need to be proved. At present, we use government endorsement, so we all recognize it. But what if people don't recognize the government? It's like a domestic ID card can't be used abroad. Because machines don't lie, blockchain is expected to lead us from personal trust and institutional trust to the era of machine trust
The development prospect of
blockchain in the future will involve all aspects of society, and the value of blockchain technology will inevitably be higher and higher. Timely embracing blockchain technology will certainly help our future life
the smart supply chain enables the logistics instry, which can rece the cost of logistics enterprises and help enterprises to establish their own core competitiveness. Take leapfrog express as an example
trans express, a logistics company, has long begun to lay out its smart supply chain. Through the role of science and technology and data, trans express carries out strong control and refined operation on people, vehicles, goods and yards, and finally finds the optimal solution of timeliness, service and cost, which greatly improves the transportation efficiency and gives users the ultimate experience.
in 2018, consumption upgrading, quality upgrading and technology upgrading will continue to deepen. The embedding of retail technology into retail formats will be further accelerated. Core technologies such as Internet of things, cloud computing, big data, artificial intelligence and blockchain will be widely used in business. In the wave of new retail or unbounded retail, Internet giants will, The retail wave reform led by e-commerce giants is taking place. However, smart logistics is driven by commercial retail, and runs through all links of the whole supply chain operation behind logistics. How to ensure the implementation of consumption upgrading service, smart logistics is very important
First of all, intelligent logistics is based on the Internet of things, cloud computing and big data, logistics instry automation as the infrastructure, intelligent business operation, information system assistant decision-making and related core supporting resources. Through the interaction and integration of information systems of various circulation links and enterprises, the whole process of logistics can be automatically perceived, identified and traced, It is a logistics business form with real-time response and intelligent decision-makingintelligent logistics is the only way for the transformation and upgrading of the logistics instry. Driven by a system of policies, technologies, business models and other background, its development and evolution process mainly consists of the most extensive logistics - systematic logistics - electronic visual logistics - Intelligent Logistics - intelligent logistics. China's China Internet plus logistics strategy is also an important cornerstone of China's 2025 strategy, and a series of management measures are also introced. Such as "opinions on implementing the plan of" Internet plus logistics "," Internet plus efficient logistics implementation "and" notice on determining the logistics distribution demonstration units ". The development plan of new generation of artificial intelligence has given full support and pointed out the direction for the development of intelligent logistics at the policy level
technological progress at any time, instry 4, China intelligent manufacturing, Internet plus, etc., are injecting "intelligent" animal genes into traditional proction and logistics instry. New technology drives the logistics scene digitalization more directly, and realizes the overall supply chain's interaction and interaction, making the decision more independent and intelligent. In the past, the rapid development of e-commerce drives the acceleration of logistics reform, drives the intelligent development of the supply chain, reces costs and increases efficiency, and improves the synergy and win-win of the whole chain. In the era of retail reform, the integration of offline and offline channels and the rapid development of the supply chain put forward higher requirements for the intelligent development of logistics. Crowdsourcing, crowdfunding, and partner planning are under the sharing economy, Sharing has become the main way of social division and cooperation, and a large number of excellent enterprises have emerged, such as G7 in the field of transportation, yunniao, Didi in the field of travel, Mo, meituan in the field of takeout, hungry, dada Jingdong home. Great changes have taken place in various instries, and thinking about the reconstruction of business model. With the upgrading of consumption, the upgrading of quality and the graal stabilization of consumption dividends in second and third tier cities, in order to seek the further development of the market, the demand of Agricultural Internet is also constantly promoting the development of intelligent logistics. The proposal of "one belt, one road" for national combat readiness has created opportunities for the globalization of intelligent logistics instry, and the upgrading of cross-border electricity providers and logistics instry has a broader imagination.
< H2 > first, based on the development trend of commercial retail, the four characteristics of smart logistics in the future are as follows: < UL >
1. Collaborative sharing enabling: deep collaboration among external cross enterprises, Cross organizations and internal cross groups, intelligent algorithm based on global optimization, and efficient division and cooperation among all participants in the whole logistics system
2. Instry interconnection and big data-driven, all logistics elements realize digital interactive sharing, and all insight, decision-making and action are driven by data
3. Supply chain integration to achieve the whole process of short chain delivery and rece waste
4. Automation, unmanned or less humanized
just like the concept of short chain, wisdom and symbiosis proposed by Jingdong Logistics earlier
Second, based on the current retail development trend, the basic framework of smart logistics development is divided into three parts: front desk, middle desk and back desk. The front desk is mainly the application layer: vehicle cargo matching, multimodal transport, warehouse distribution, resource sharing, car free carrier, supply chain finance, path optimization, etcthe middle platform is mainly the decision-making level: logistics cloud technology decision-making, operation rules and standard logic, logistics market decision-making
the background is mainly the data perception layer: the logistics elements of goods / vehicles / warehouses are digitized + geographic information is digitized + consumer portrait
the core points to be solved in the development of intelligent logistics are as follows:
< UL >1. Sharing of data infrastructure to rece the cost of collaboration

In terms of instry insight, through data analysis, combing the best practice case scheme for systematic application. In terms of deep collaboration of supply chain, it starts from the inventory planning and operation management of warehousing, in warehouse and out of warehouse to realize immediate delivery and zero difference delivery, so as to rece inventory turnover and capital cost
secondly, in the realization of data-based operation, first of all, we should explore the intelligent setting, modeling, simulation operation and human to machine learning of intelligent operation rules, think more about the realization path, and continuously optimize WMS, intelligent picking, site layout, optimal path, intelligent scheling, optimal route recommendation, TMS and abnormal dynamic planning in the aspects of intelligent warehousing, transportation and distribution, Intelligent sorting and other functions, so that it has the function of intelligent output, cost rection and efficiency scheling. At the level of intelligent operation, the whole logistics process, such as warehousing, storage, picking, review, packaging, delivery, inventory, transfer, ferry, sorting, delivery and picking, should have corresponding intelligent technology and hardware equipment application
< H2 > 4. Three market demands of smart Logistics:
< UL >
1. Logistics data service demand: it is mainly used in typical scenarios such as data sharing, sales forecast, network planning, inventory deployment, and instry insight. It is the basis of the formation of smart logistics
2. Logistics cloud service demand: coordinate idle resources, people, goods, yards, vehicles and other elements, software SaaS service (WMS / TMS / OMS, etc.) algorithm, component service (path optimization, packing, consumables recommendation, vehicle scheling, etc.) it is the carrier of intelligent logistics operation
3. Demand for logistics technical services: including automatic equipment (such as automated warehouse, automatic sorter, conveyor belt, etc.), intelligent equipment (such as picking robot, palletizing robot, AGV, UAV, unmanned vehicle, unmanned warehouse, etc.), intelligent terminal: Express cabinet, crowdsourcing distribution. It is the way to implement intelligent logistics
from the perspective of market segment demand, smart logistics can be divided into intelligent storage logistics demand, intelligent construction of international freight forwarding logistics, and intelligent transportation and distribution demand, which are important components of the whole process of smart logistics, and are indispensable
< H2 > 5. Forecast the five trends of smart logistics in the future: < H2 > < UL >

In addition, Tongda, Baishi and other express companies have increased investment in smart logistics, For example, Baishi launched a smart supply chain; At the global smart Logistics Conference of "connection upgrade" in May 2017, Ma Yun said: & quot; The future logistics enterprises will be fashionable and high-tech enterprises "...at present, e-commerce logistics head companies, Amazon, Shunfeng, Jingdong, rookie and other head companies continue to increase investment in the technology field (refer to the official financial over the years), which can also verify the important strategic significance of technology for the future. The intelligent hardware and technology involved in the node process of logistics supply chain will usher in a new growth point in the future; Warehousing technology, intelligent hardware equipment in the warehouse, new energy logistics vehicle / Internet of vehicles attract special attention; In terms of technology landing, storage robots and sorting robots are playing a major role in the logistics instry. In the future, the logistics commercial application technology under the retail revolution has a broad prospect, such as UAV and unmanned vehicle (Jingdong and Shunfeng have won some trials one after another)
Intelligent era: on the basis of automation, combined with digitization. Through the Internet of things technology to collect and process the cargo information, the cloud analysis and issue instructions, realize unmanned operation
in this year, the outbreak of the epidemic has made the advantages of new infrastructure and other instries of intelligence and unmanned operation more prominent. Intelligence + digitization has become a new trend in the development of warehouse logistics. At the same time, with the visualization scheme of hightopo, we can have a "panoramic view" of the whole warehouse
< H2 > automated warehouse management
through the Internet of things and sensors, real-time collection and analysis of cargo attributes, temperature, and other information can provide targeted instruction operation. The whole process from warehousing to outbound is visible, realizing the remote perception and control of goods. The cloud can form deeper capabilities such as three-dimensional digital service and warehouse management strategy customization. At the same time, it supports the collaborative operation of warehouse management, order management and transportation management systems, optimizing the cost and improving efficiency. Become a "warehousing sorting distribution" one-stop service. It can be seen that automation equipment is like limbs, while digital operation system is equivalent to brain, and process visualization helps to clarify the context. It helps managers to master the whole process of the warehouse without leaving home, and realizes the visualization and fine supervision
< H2 > accurate operation of detail managementby using electronic labels for goods, managers can check the location and information of goods at any time, and each piece of goods can be reasonably allocated in the process of warehousing and outbound. Solve the problem of sorting error, greatly improve work efficiency; Generally, the error rate of electronic tags is less than 5 / 10000, and the application of electronic tag system is more efficient than manual sorting
< H2 > overall control and cost savingfor the storage space where different kinds of goods are stacked together, different kinds of sensors (smoke sensors and temperature sensors) are used to monitor the warehouse real-time environment, and display them in 3D scene to timely deploy personnel to deal with problems and ensure the safety of goods
the online workflow speeds up the transaction processing cycle, and saves 67% ~ 83% of the time on average; The labor cost is reced by 30%, the vehicle cost is reced by 20%, and the operation cost is greatly reced
< H2 > invest in the futurebecause of the maturity of Internet of things and 5g technology, the logistics and warehousing instry has also begun to carry out in-depth intelligent transformation. Not only in technology, proction efficiency, energy conservation and environmental protection has an important breakthrough. It has also changed the operation thinking of logistics warehousing instry, from manual work to technical work, and liberated the labor cost.
