Huawei Unveils Five Aviation Solutions to Enhance Airport Intelligence and Connectivity
Huawei's Groundbreaking Innovations at the Passenger Terminal Expo 2025
On April 17, 2025, Huawei made headlines at the Passenger Terminal Expo 2025 by introducing five cutting-edge aviation solutions aimed at revolutionizing airport operations and enhancing overall passenger experience. At the heart of this technological leap is the Smart Airport Intelligent Operation Center (IOC), designed to drive intelligent upgrades within the aviation sector.
Huawei is demonstrating its commitment to innovation by integrating advanced technologies that create a sophisticated architecture of intelligent digital twins. This architecture facilitates the synchronization of connectivity, cloud services, AI capabilities, computing resources, and various applications. The ultimate goal is to significantly improve operational efficiency, enhance business value, bolster safety measures, and elevate the passenger experience at airports around the globe.
Intelligent Airport Operations
The Smart Airport IOC plays a pivotal role in enabling precise and efficient decision-making through environmental awareness. With the Total Airport Management (TAM) concept as its foundation, Huawei's IOC optimizes production and operational systems, seamlessly connecting over 30 airport production systems for a comprehensive view on a single dashboard. This real-time monitoring system ensures proactive resource allocation, effective handling of disruptions, enhanced security management, and an improved passenger experience.
Enhancing Airport Security
Safety remains a crucial concern in aviation, and Huawei's Smart Airport Perimeter Security with Fiber Sensing solution addresses this need effectively. Utilizing distributed fiber optic detection and AI algorithms, this solution accurately maps airport intruders even in adverse weather conditions. It significantly reduces false alarms, ensuring that security personnel can focus on genuine threats without unnecessary distractions.
Cloud-Based Operations for Enhanced Efficiency
Huawei’s digital and intelligent cloud platform revolutionizes airport operations by leveraging data and AI to make systems smarter, more efficient, and safer. Core cloud services have been migrated to ensure no data loss occurs during operations, drastically improving recovery time from an hour to just five minutes, all while maintaining an impressive 99.99% availability.
Furthermore, the platform promotes a robust data governance system that supplies high-quality data necessary for intelligent applications. With advanced AI capabilities, Huawei supports open and compatible mainstream models and engines, bolstering the efficiency of aviation operations.
High-Quality Communications Infrastructure
Huawei's Xinghe Intelligent Airport Integrated Data Network Solution sets a new standard for reliable communication networks within airports. The introduction of Wi-Fi 7 enhances the passenger experience by increasing bandwidth for VIP passengers by 20% through its advanced VIP assurance technology. Additionally, Huawei’s exclusive Wi-Fi Shield employs noise superposition to protect data transmission from air-interface theft, securing sensitive information against cyber threats.
The Smart Airport Fully Connected All-Optical Network further enhances communication capabilities by integrating Internet Protocol (IP) and Passive Optical LAN (POL) technologies. The launch of the OptiXstar P892M, the first 10G M45 Optical Network Unit (ONU) in a panel type specifically tailored for airport environments, supports diverse installation methods and accommodates evolving communication needs.
Global Adoption of Huawei's Solutions
So far, over 210 airports, airlines, and air traffic control authorities worldwide have chosen to implement Huawei's pioneering technologies. This widespread adoption underscores Huawei's role as a leader in aviation solutions, significantly transforming the sector through innovative infrastructure and powerful technological enhancements.
As airports continue to adapt to increasing passenger demands and security challenges, Huawei's forward-thinking approach positions it at the forefront of the aviation industry, setting benchmarks for efficiency, safety, and user experience. The future of air travel looks promising with Huawei leading the charge towards smart airport solutions.
