This white paper introduces four technical capabilities of the VoNR+ network and the application practice of new calls in the individual and industry markets, aiming to promote the coordination and maturity of the VoNR+ new call industry chain.
In 2022, China Mobile will launch the commercial use of VoNR. The 5G network-based audio/video call will bring consumers better audio quality and ultra-HD video experience. The 5G VoNR+ new call is a real-time audio/video call upgraded from real-time call to interactive and immersive call by adding the IMS Data Channel to interact any multimedia synchronously such as pictures, menus, emoji, and locations.
China Mobile and ZTE have joined hands with other strategic partners to actively promote the 5G VoNR+ work in standard research, specification formulation, pilot verification and industrial promotion. In November 2020, the two companies, together with other industrial partners, released 5G VoNR+ White Paper. In 2021, the Guangdong Branch of China Mobile and ZTE carried out the 5G VoNR+ pilot to verify the services such as "calling party business card", "intelligent customer service", "video sharing", "electronic whiteboard", "content sharing", and "simultaneous interpretation" services.
