Huawei launched White Paper to enhance internet technology in Africa
On November 13, Huawei attended the 25th AfricaCom 2022 event and launched the IPv6-based White Paper in Africa. Eventually, the solution will enhance internet innovation and technology in the region.
For your information, IPv6 signifies Internet Protocol Version 6. Generally, the respective internet technology facilitates connections for data, applications, and computing power development. It also helps in framing the digital economy.
So far, several regions and industries have deployed IPv6 architecture for advanced network and internet services. Hence, Huawei is now circulating the White Paper on IPv6 development in Africa for better internet facilities.
Consequently, the Chinese tech maker organized the 4th Africa Broadband Forum at the AfricaCom event. Besides, the company and African Union together introduced the White Paper solution for the region.
Main Aim of White Paper
Huawei has launched White Paper to cover a variety of aspects in Africa. To begin with, the initiative will inspect the development of IPv6 and internet services in the region. In addition, it will distribute the innovation techs and schemes to the major internet service providers and operators.
Furthermore, the solution will offer tricks and direction to accelerate internet services and utilize the technologies efficiently. As a result, all these steps will improve the growth of the network and digital economy in Africa.
IPv4 vs IPv6
Initially, the company has been working with IPv4 technology and services. However, with an excessive growth rate in technologies, IPv4 was not enough to fulfill the demands for highly-effective internet facilities.
Hence, it became important to take a step further in this concept. Alternatively, IPv6 will play a crucial role in uplifting innovation in the internet world. Accordingly, users will get improved network services.
IP Enhanced
Huawei also revealed the term IPE (IP Enhanced) which relies upon combined applications. It uses flexible IPv6 modules to optimize the network programs and other related operations.
With IPE, Huawei will work on four factors, Super Edge, Cloud-Network Express, Converged Backbone, and Digital Map. These solutions will help the operators to develop reflective cloud networks and bring Africa’s digital economy to new heights.

Patent:
Recently, two patents have surfaced on China’s intellectual property office, which reveal Huawei’s use of AI in instant reply software. However, we can say that Huawei has already applied a lot of AI software to human conversation technology, which was way ahead of ChatGPT. But Huawei has not revealed any plans to implement such tech in Huawei devices.
ChatGPT:
ChatGPT was launched as a prototype on November 30, 2022, and quickly garnered attention for its detailed responses and articulate answers across many domains of knowledge. Its uneven factual accuracy, however, was identified as a significant drawback. Following the release of ChatGPT, OpenAI’s valuation was estimated at US$29 billion.

After the events of the U.S. ban, Huawei had to reduce its capacity of building new smartphones, which result in low yield and sales, and now, Xiaomi claims that it took over 50 million of Huawei’s users.
During the Xiaomi Investment Day, Lu Weibing, President of Xiaomi Group said that Huawei has lost over 80 million smartphone users, of which, Xiaomi took over 50 million.
This is quite a big statement made by the head of the Chinese phone maker as Huawei was forced to leave the market due to the restrictions on manufacturing.
After not meeting the market requirements the share of Huawei’s smartphone market declined severely in both the Chinese and global markets. While other smartphone makers are the ones that got most of the benefits.
From the rest, Apple took over 20 million users and Honor grabbed 10 million, which accounts for an overall 80 million Huawei users.
According to the data revealed by Canalys, the global smartphone market ranked Samsung first and Apple second, which has increased by 22 percent and 19 percent respectively. While Xiaomi declined to 13 percent.
Aside from Apple and Samsung, other smartphone maker has declined.
