CMG drives deep integration of 5G with UHD media industries

A new international technical standard, "Usage scenarios and key technologies for 5G-based audiovisual content production and contribution" initiated by the China Media Group (CMG), was officially released on Friday on the platform of International Telecommunication Union (ITU).

The CMG, in collaboration with the European Broadcasting Union, led the formulation of the technical standard. This marks a significant breakthrough for the CMG in the field of international technology standards of radio and television.

The recommendation report for this international standard systematically summarized the rich practical experience of the national radio and television broadcaster CMG in content production and contribution on both big and small screens in the 5G-based transmission environment.

It defines scenarios for the production and transmission of ultra-high-definition content under 5G public network conditions, and also elaborates on process design and key technologies for various production and broadcast scenarios, which fills the ITU's gap of international standard regarding the application of 5G technology in the production of ultra-high-definition content.

At present, the CMG's technologies have become important components and support of the global ultra-high-definition production and broadcast standard system.

China Coast Guard (CCG) on Wednesday conducted law enforcement patrols in the Huangyan Island territorial waters and surrounding areas in the South China Sea.

The CCG said it has intensified law enforcement patrols in the territorial waters of the Huangyan Island and surrounding areas since the start of December.

In accordance with the relevant laws and regulations, the CCG has been exercising regulation over vessels engaged in illegal activities including rights infringement and provocation, further strengthening control over the relevant sea areas, and resolutely safeguarding China's territorial sovereignty and maritime rights and interests, according to the CCG.
