The Fifth Generation Mobile Communication Technology (5G) represents a new generation of broadband mobile communication technology characterized by high-speed, low-latency, and massive connectivity. 5G communication infrastructure serves as the network foundation for the interconnection of humans, machines, and objects.
As a novel mobile communication network, 5G not only addresses human-to-human communication—providing users with immersive experiences such as augmented reality, virtual reality, and ultra-high-definition (3D) video—but also resolves communication between humans and things (H2T) and things and things (T2T). It meets the application demands of the Internet of Things (IoT) in fields like mobile healthcare, vehicle-to-everything (V2X), smart homes, industrial control, and environmental monitoring. Ultimately, 5G will permeate into all sectors and domains of the economy and society, becoming a critical new infrastructure supporting the digital, networked, and intelligent transformation of the economy and society.
The 5G industry, encompassing industries and markets related to fifth-generation mobile communication technology, features extensive application scenarios, promising development prospects, and certain challenges. As 5G technology matures and its applications proliferate, this industry will generate increased opportunities and developmental space for society. Stakeholders should strengthen collaboration to jointly advance the growth of the 5G industry and foster the prosperity of the digital economy.
Against this backdrop, CnOpenData has referenced industry materials and the business scopes of leading enterprises in industrial and commercial registrations. Sixteen relevant keywords were selected to filter and extract data from China's industrial and commercial registered enterprise database, yielding 1.89 million records of basic information on enterprises in the 5G industry to facilitate related research. It is noteworthy that to reduce noise in the dataset, we excluded market entities categorized under the "Wholesale and Retail Trade" sector and those registered as "Individual Industrial and Commercial Households" (个体工商户), thereby removing irrelevant entries such as mobile phone stores and telecom service outlets.
