The Ministry of Information and Communications said
that the Ministry has submitted to the Prime Minister to consider the plan to
stop the old 2G mobile technology by 2022. The reason for cutting off the 2G
network is that there are three public telecommunications networks in Vietnam.
Ground mobile technology is GSM (2G) deployed in 1990, IMT 2000 (3G) deployed
in 2009 and LTE-A (4G) deployed in 2016 and expected to deploy commercial 5G in
2020. Thus, from 2021, there will be four mobile technologies on Vietnam's telecommunications
network. Maintaining these 4 technologies at the same time forces businesses to
maintain and operate 4 separate mobile networks, costing businesses, frequency
resources are divided, and enterprises do not focus on sources. Force to engage
in new mobile technology. Therefore, the elimination of 2G technology allows
the release of bands for new mobile technologies, helping businesses save and
reduce operating costs, and reserve passive infrastructure to develop 5G
broadcast stations.
Besides,
Vietnamese businesses have been able to produce smartphones at low prices that
can replace existing 2G phones and do not affect users much.
Along
with the launch of the 2G wave-off roadmap, the Ministry of Information and
Communications said it has licensed 5G testing for mobile telecommunications
businesses. Currently, a telecommunications corporation in Vietnam has
officially tested this technology in Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City. The ministry
advocates the consideration of official 5G licensing for businesses by 2020. Therefore,
Vietnam is now one of the leading countries in the ASEAN region in terms of 5G
trade deployment.
A General Director of the corporation
said that they had prepared conditions on station infrastructure, transmission
systems, core networks as well as experiences, lessons, and personnel on design
and deployment of 5G network. "In Ho Chi Minh City, the company has
completed seamless 5G network coverage in ward 12, District 10. For Hanoi, we
have broadcasted some of the first 5G stations in May 2019. In addition, the
company will deploy the 5G network seamlessly in an area of Ba Dinh district
in the next 1-2 months. The download speed of the 5G network as the company has
announced is 1.7 GB / s, 50 times higher than 4G currently. This is a technical
testing phase, so the company's goal is to evaluate the system capacity,
coverage, and parameters as well as draw lessons on design, deployment,
operation, and exploitation. 5G network layer, from which there is a basis to
build a strategy and development roadmap for 5G in Vietnam "said the
