Beijing (Gasgoo)- China Unicom announced on December 9 that the company and Huawei recently co-established China's first 5G-A V2X innovation base in Beijing Economic-Technological Development Area. The initiative marks a significant milestone in the in-depth application of 5G-A technology for integrated vehicle-road-cloud systems.

The collaboration between China Unicom and Huawei focuses on advanced 5G-A features, AI-powered perception, and automotive-grade RedCap terminals. The project is driving innovations in intelligent driving and smart parking applications, particularly in beyond-line-of-sight scenarios.

The innovation base is equipped with six roadside sensing systems, six 5G-A pole stations, four multimodal fusion engines, and a unified sensing-communication base station. Key technologies such as multi-carrier aggregation, supplemental uplink, and deterministic low-latency transmission have been validated. Additionally, Huawei's multimodal fusion engine integrates seamlessly with China Unicom's intelligent vehicle-road collaboration platform, enabling real-time data fusion.

The base has established a robust 5G-A network across Beijing, leveraging China Unicom's commercial 3.5GHz and 2.1GHz frequency bands. It achieves sub-20 ms latency and uplink speeds exceeding 20 Mbps, laying a solid foundation for large-scale 5G V2X adoption.

In practical applications, 5G-A enables real-time data exchange and intelligent coordination between vehicles, roads, and the cloud. Verification scenarios, such as oncoming vehicle alerts and secondary collision avoidance, demonstrate sub-10 ms end-to-end latency, achieving comprehensive, real-time road perception.

The base also advances RedCap terminal ecosystem development, with tests conducted in cities like Foshan and Beijing. The integration of commercial RedCap terminals into vehicles is expected to enhance connectivity performance and accelerate 5G adoption in the automotive sector.

[Cobalt] Cobalt Powder Weekly Review

The cobalt powder market still showed no improvement this week, with both buyers and sellers lacking willingness to take the initiative and actual transactions remaining sluggish. Although producer offers still held in the range of 430,000-450,000 yuan/mt, the center of actual deals gradually shifted toward the low end, with some transactions dipping to 420,000-430,000 yuan/mt and high-priced material clearly lacking acceptance. Pressure in the trading segment increased, as low-priced offers appeared frequently and continuously pulled down market psychological price levels. Downstream, end-user orders at cemented carbide enterprises were weak, raw material consumption cycles lengthened, procurement was mainly limited to cargo pick-up under long-term contracts, and spot restocking was minimal. Weaker cobalt carbonate prices further weakened cost support. Overall market sentiment was bearish, and cobalt powder prices may continue to weaken and hit bottom in the short term.

[Cobalt] Cobalt Sulphate Weekly Review

This week, the cobalt sulphate market extended its weak trend, with psychological price levels between buyers and sellers continuing to diverge and transactions struggling to gain volume. Supply side, offers were clearly divergent: primary smelters had not yet fully digested earlier high-priced raw materials, and their offers remained around 80,000 yuan/mt, but with the MHP cobalt coefficient falling to around 80%, spot costs had already pulled back to 76,000-78,000 yuan/mt, and cost support had actually softened somewhat; recycling enterprises showed a stronger willingness to sell, with mainstream quotations at around 95% of the SMM low-end price, while some enterprises facing financial constraints continued to push down prices in exchange for liquidity, pushing low-priced resources in the market down to 70,000-72,000 yuan/mt, with a few isolated extreme deals heard at 68,000-70,000 yuan/mt, though still mainly sporadic spot orders. Demand side, conditions were weak, with downstream enterprises seeing only a slow recovery in orders, procurement limited to immediate needs, and some inquiry indications already pushed down to 68,000 yuan/mt, but the price spread between buyers and sellers remained wide, so actual concluded business was limited. In the short term, the cobalt sulphate market has yet to show clear signs of stopping the fall; price stabilisation still depends on a concentrated release of downstream restocking demand.

[Cobalt] Cobalt Intermediate Products Weekly Review

This week, the cobalt intermediate product market remained in a stalemate, with actual trading still in a vacuum. Recently, some miners launched tenders with indicative prices at around $21-22/lb, but amid continued weakness in cobalt salts and refined cobalt, downstream buyers and traders saw their psychological price levels pull back to around $17-19/lb, leaving a wide price spread between buyers and sellers; tenders continued to fail. Faced with the persistent stalemate, some miners have begun to consider changing their strategy, suspending direct sales of intermediate products and instead seeking toll manufacturers to process them into refined cobalt before selling, to avoid the risk of losses from direct sales at current low prices. In the short term, although miners are willing to hold prices firm, the lack of actual downstream purchasing support leaves the market locked in a stalemate, and price stabilization still awaits actual transactions to materialize.
