Innovative production process
It is the core goal of the Institute to continuously provide technical solutions suitable for the development of mobile services and networks in China. Among them, by actively applying for patents on technology research and development achievements, the intellectual property rights of enterprises are protected to the maximum extent; At the same time, it is also an important part of the hospital's work to incorporate its own needs into relevant international standards as much as possible to reduce the cost of network construction and accelerate the introduction of new technologies and services.
Up to now, China Mobile has submitted to the State Patent Office PCT international applications for ten patents, such as "A method to realize communication service-level services based on user requests", and the number of domestic patents has exceeded 130, which has become the technical basis for services such as color ring tones and videophones urgently needed by China Mobile, greatly lowering the patent threshold for business development and accelerating the launch of new services of China Mobile. In 2005, the Institute accelerated the protection of innovative intellectual property rights and submitted more than 90 patent applications, accounting for more than 95% of the patent applications of China Mobile Group.
It is in the continuous technological and business innovation that the research institute found that the patent of mobile communication has penetrated into many subtle fields. Therefore, China Mobile believes that the more core patents it has, the more it can take the initiative in the future when new technologies and new services emerge one after another, which is the core chip of operators in the market competition.
It should be noted that every patent born by the Institute will be accompanied by technological innovation, which will greatly refresh the operating performance of China Mobile in that year or several years. This accurate market demand-oriented R&D innovation has revitalized the value chain of the whole enterprise and completely formed the traditional closed R&D model.
It is in this R&D system that emphasizes value production that the DSMP system that can manage various data services was born, and 10 national patents are being applied. The mobile intelligent network based on CAMELPHASE2 was born, and developed many intelligent services, such as "Shenzhouxing" prepaid service, Shenzhouxing short message service, mobile virtual group telephone service, time-sharing and cell billing service, mobile chat service, home number and so on, which promoted the leading position of national communication manufacturing industry in this field. The multimedia message service which has been incorporated into the 3GPP specification was born. Within 1 year after the official commercialization, the number of users reached 1 10,000, and the business income reached1.20,000 yuan. The innovative projects that can't be listed one by one have created huge economic benefits for China Mobile, and also produced profound social benefits, such as making mobile phones the "fifth media" with great influence.
In order to effectively increase the added value of patents, bringing the patents that reflect the needs of China Mobile into the international standard system has become a unified standard followed by the whole world, which has become one of the important strategies of China Mobile's technological innovation in recent years. In this way, there is no need to customize products such as network equipment that meet their own needs, which greatly reduces the cost.
With China Mobile becoming the mobile communication operator with the largest number of users in the world, this possibility is increasing. The Institute seized the opportunity decisively and strengthened the right to speak in the formulation of international standards in time. On the one hand, the achievements of technological innovation are submitted to international standards as much as possible, and on the other hand, more and more important positions are sought in standards organizations.
In 2005, China Mobile undertook four international standardization activities, with a total of 472 papers submitted and passed 102. Many employees hold leading positions in international standardization organizations, such as members of the board of directors of GSM Association, and have firmly established a decisive position in the international standardization system.
Generally speaking, the innovative and valuable R&D process of China Mobile Research Institute depends on three ways. The first is to establish the scope of patent protection, not too narrow, otherwise opponents will easily bypass your patent; Secondly, carefully study the scope of protection of existing patents, try to avoid these "minefields" and ensure economy; Finally, patents should be included in international standards as much as possible. "After investing huge R&D costs in this way, we can guarantee to get the largest part of the value chain".
